Gave me a chance to see where my ancestors lived. Food was wonderful as well as the staff. We met people not only from Ireland but also Scotland. The firm bed was very comfortable. Everyone working there was very friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was very good and an additional plus.

So much history in this little inn. It was actually considered a castle at one time. Not to mention you can walk across the street to the huge castle. Remember it’s old…but that’s part of its beauty. The breakfast was 2nd to none!!!

My niece & I wound up at the Dobbin's Inn by chance, we were only going spend one night but we fell so in love with the Hotel & the surrounding town of Carrickfergus that we spent 3 nights there ! We were enchanted with everything about the hotel ; the warm, cozy atmosphere, the fascinating history, the thoughtful & courteous staff, and the simply delicious food that the house chef & staff cooked for us each day. Do yourself a favour and try their seafood chowder & fresh bread - it can't be beat !

Overpriced and disappointing
This hotel is a listed building. So, it has no insulation therefore it is very important that the heating works adequately. My room was freezing!! On mentioning to staff they brought an electric heater that was not adequate in warming up my room on one if the coldest nights of the year. I had a very uncomfortable night. In the morning on touching the bedroom radiator it was red hot! So the heating was switched off the previous night! The tea at breakfast was out if a pump action thermos which was tepid, a fresh pot for each guest would have been welcome. I paid £90 for my room and breakfast and was very disappointed. However I ate supper in the bar and it was first class. The entrance where the reception is had an open fire that put putrid fumes all upstairs into the rooms. All in all a very disappointing stay and definitely not worth the money.

Dear Mary,I am sorry to read your comments about your stay and can only apologise at this stage for the lack of heat in your room for a period. However I hope to clarify a few of your points. The heating for the bedrooms is on a timer and set for the morning and also for the evening times. We were not aware there was an issue with the heating on the 2nd floor until a guest brought it to our attention. The heating on the first floor was working perfectly. Once the issue with the heating on the 2nd floor was brought to our attention the maintenance team were called and the issue was resolved in less than 3 hours. In the meantime you were provided with a heater as a temporary measure.We use the flasks at busy breakfast times however you would have been more than welcome to ask for a pot of tea or coffee.In relation to the fires we have in the reception and in our bar lounge, these are unique to our building within Carrickfergus and are a welcomed sight by everyone. Positive comments are always received when visitors walk into the building. While this is a personal view of yours, it is not one we have ever had before. I am glad to read that your enjoyed the food in the bar lounge. With regards to being over priced, 90 bed and breakfast for 2 people is well below other hotels in the area. Had you booked direct you would have received a rate roughly 5-6 less than through 3rd party.

This property was convenient to a few pubs and opposite Carrickfergus Castle (handy) but very average accommodation and noisy with people up and down stairs and opening and slamming doors till late!
Svar fra Dobbins Inn Team den 31. okt. 2023
Hi Trish,Will look at the doors, perhaps the closer on them needs attention. Unfortunately it is impossible to prevent people moving about the hotel. Your booking was over a weekend it is more likely that people will be out and about later.

Même si c’était propre, les équipements sont vieux et désuets. La douche coule partout sur le plancher, les joints de silicone sont défaits et pourris, le matelas et dû pour être changé et donne mal au dos… Le déjeuner est inclus mais qualité de la nourriture qui laisse à désirer… tous les autres déjeuners de notre voyage étaient beaucoup mieux que celui au Dobbins Inn (et étaient aussi inclus pour la plupart!)

Thank you for your feedback, the translation advises that lunch is included however it should mean breakfast. Hot breakfast is made to order and ranges from the typical fry to french toast, porridge, poached eggs or pancakes with 2 types of toppings. The buffet table provides, fresh fruit, fruit juices, cereals, yogurts, breads for toast and then tea & coffee. This is more than acceptable for a 3 star property. With relation to the bathroom seals on the shower, this is something that can be checked and refreshed.

Dear Robyn,I would not say the hotel is not suitable for older people. In our 45 + years of running the inn we have had a vast number of "older people" stay and they have loved the fact that the hotel is steeped in history and this is reflected in our long corridors and quirky layout. We do not have lifts so this would indeed put someone off that perhaps had walking issues, but that could be any age bracket. I am sorry that you did not enjoy your stay with us.
