"Great location but facilities are poor"
Room was very hot and it was only 14 degrees outside. 1 set of towels despite two guests booked. This is the third time this has happened at Premier Inn. Had to ask twice for towels and eventually go and get them myself. The shower was dangerously hot or freezing cold and also turn off altogether. Had to give up on it.
Staff were difficult to locate and made it challenging to ask for assistance or complain. Blonde hair found in my husband’s breakfast after being served by staff. A very disappointing experience and think it’s time to give up on Premier inn.

"Perfect perfect stay - book this for a Belfast city break!!"
We LOVED our stay at Premier Inn Carrickfergus. The hotel is clean, quiet and in a fantastic location - 20 mins from the ferry / Titanic Museum / Belfast City and is at the beginning of the coastal route to Giant's Causeway. We booked an accessible room which is huge and suited out needs. Parking is excellent with no height restrictions for our transit van. Lovely castle / harbour views, but above all - the staff here are the loveliest and kindest staff of any hotel ever. 100% recommend.

"No hot water"
We had a problem as the hot water was intemittant hot/cold/stop in our room. When we mentioned this it was "tested" the next day and the staff said it was OK. The problem hadn't been fixed at all. The 3rd day maintenence looked at it and found a valve was broken so we moved rooms. We were promised a refund between a sea view and the replacement and also a complimentary refund of 3 beakfasts. Acceptable, thank you, but no information about this refund has happened and nothing has been repaid as yet.

Hotel description
Stunning coastline, gorgeous countryside and a thriving, historic town... there's loads to see and do at the Premier Inn Hotel Carrickfergus. In fact with so much to do within a mile of the front door - plus popular business destinations only slightly further away - your first visit is unlikely to be your last.
Step back in time at Carrickfergus Castle and Museum, before stepping out to its Marina and smartly refurbished Amphitheatre leisure centre. And, if it's the right time of year, follow the steps at the Annual Irish Dancing Championships. Either way, kick back at our tasty Brewers Fayre restaurant before diving into your incredibly comfy bed.
