All good everything was excellent and pleasant staff

Absolutely lovely guesthouse and friendly owners. We'd a great stay and highly recommend. Thank you.

A hidden gem! Very well run and maintained property - thoughtfully fitted out with everything guests might require. An excellent breakfast menu beautifully prepared and presented. Highly recommended as a base for exploring the area.

Excellent communication, helpful, attentive, clean. I would stay again.

My annual trip to Bangor with my granddaughter and I always choose Shelleven, welcoming clean and never disappoints great location to the harbour and has everything you need

Best guesthouse / hotel I have stayed in when visiting Northern Ireland. Located in Bangor and overlooking Belfast Lough - the setting is amazing - especially if the weather behaves! Staff are very friendly and professional, the house is full of charm and character and course the breakfast was amazing!

Clean Room Amazing staff Helpfulness WiFi good Room comfy and cosy Only negatives Shower pressure

Room was clean but let down by stain on chair in bedroom and bath silicon needed replacing otherwise lovely and tea and coffee facilities, breakfast and host excellent.

What a nice stay we had at the Shelleven House. Besides the comfort of our room the location was perfect for us. The owners were very friendly and helpful with all needs and questions we had. My husband and I would highly recommended this hotel.

Breakfast was great and the hotel was clean and tidy. Host was excellent. Recommended.

A great place to stay. there is no elevator. If you have mobility issues it could be a problem. The beds are 54”. Could be bigger There is a wonderful living room/parlour and hosts are most welcoming and informative. They did laundry for us at a reasonable cost. It was easy to walk to great pubs and restaurants. Parking on site was excellent. We highly recommend this place

Clean and quite. About 20 min drive from downtown. Does not include breakfast.

Comfortable, clean, friendly and an excellent Ulster breakfast. Ensuite bathroom could do with a refresh and the towels have definitely seen better days.

Business stop over . 9/10

Super friendly and helpful staff. Great location!

The property is well maintained with attractive bedrooms and I found Sue (the owner) to be very helpful, informative and welcoming. Breakfast was plentiful with a good selection of cereals and yogurts. Value for money was excellent. It has to be said though, that the property is old and, being converted (rather than purpose built), there are constraints on how comfortable the rooms can be. Ours was very hot during the (admittedly uncharacteristic!) heatwave with no way of cooling it down. One of the windows was low and unopenable. As it is a guest house, we could not expect the owners to be available at all times- so the property was not staffed during the evenings, nor did we feel it would be reasonable to ask for a fan or to change our room. The bathroom had a good shower with a flexible hose (one of my particular preferences). However the sink was very low and not very big so quite tricky for my husband to shave there. The television was baffling! The manual for it was left in a drawer, but it was really challenging just to get to choose a normal channel each time it was switched on. BBC I player and Channel 4 on demand could not be accessed. This was disappointing since we wanted to follow the cricket test match highlights. It seems petty to complain, but it did spoil our evenings a bit. There is ample car parking and the location is quite good, being close to the sea and not far from Bangor town centre or station which we visited on foot sometimes.

A lovely stay, a warm welcome and smooth checkin. An extensive breakfast menu. I had a freshly prepared Ulster Fry and a very tasty omelette in the end ..... it was tricky to choose! We were weekend stayers, so being so close to the shore and it's wonderful coastal path as well as it being only a short stroll into Bangor for the best bars with wonderful live music. Perfect

Great location and facilities, and very hospitable hosts

We absolutely loved our stay at Shelleven! The hosts were helpful and friendly, and the location was perfect. Just a short walk to the marina and several great restaurants. We would definitely stay again!
