Top Portballintrae Hotel Reviews

Causeway Hotel

Causeway Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel does have a major advantage of its location, they don’t need to make big efforts to fill the rooms. Despite that, the staff was very welcoming and professional and the property is well maintained (the best that can be done with a listed building). The food quality….. that’s another story. Definitely not up to the standards for such a hotel. More like the food from petrol stations on motorways. It was a mistake to dine there and maybe I should have searched for decent restaurants in the vicinity. Breakfast also quite poor both quantity but mainly quality."
