We are staying 2 nights at the Clarion while on an extended road trip, and have been very pleased with the hotel. The rooms are big, comfortable, clean, and have some nice extras (pants press, heated towel rack, in-room Wi-Fi, large desk area). Our room has a lovely view (through french doors) of the mountains, the coastline, and the water,... more

I stayed at the Clarion hotel for 2 nights on a weekend deal. There were three of us with me in one room and the other two in another room. The reservation staff were very helpful in booking and accomodated all our needs. Check-in was a breeze and the rooms were lovely, plenty of space. The views are not good... more

I Flew into Belfast City Airport and simply followed the signs for the North then Carrickfergus, This place is slightly outside Belfast City Centre so its easy to get too and park. Seems to be popular for Business Conferences. Went for a walk into Carrickfergus and had a few pints. Would probbaly think about coming back for a Belfast City... more

Where do you start? My partner and i booked one evenings stay after another nightmare elsewhere..All we wanted was a nights sleep and catch our flight back the following morning... The alarm bells should have rung when a guest at the check in desk (who we later learned was 'the DJ'), said it was a great night because they always... more

NOTE: I have not stayed in this hotel as an overnight guest. We were looking for a place to hold a special family celebration, and booked the Clarion. Because of other reviews on Tripadvisor, we did so with some trepidation, but we went ahead anyway, because no other place we looked at met our requirements. We found Lily very helpful,... more

We were visiting family living in Carrickfergus and chose the Clarion Hotel after reading the reviews on TA . We stayed with my parents and our 11 year old daughter. We were given a' triple' room, which was exactly the same as my parents 'double' room except ours had the extra 'put me up bed'. The kettle in our room... more

Stayed 4 nights here on a breakfast/dinner package deal with a tour company. The hotel was very clean and the food of a high standard. However I found the bedroom too hot and when windows were opened there was much traffic noise from the adjacent main road. The location is great - 5 to 10 minutes to a cinema, fast... more

I was staying here as I was on business in the area. The hotel is clean, upkeep is good. The rooms are quite large, they have all the basics and are more than comfortable for a couple of nights. The hotel's amenities are limited. There are a couple of bars that serve a limited menu and a more extensive restaurant.... more

I stayed here for several nights recently on a business trip. I am often in N. Ireland, and this is the best hotel I have experienced. Not so much in terms of opulence (although it is very comfortable), but with regard to comfort, cleanliness , efficiency and friendliness of staff. Unlike many business hotels, the food was good and good... more
