Beautiful hotel with really friendly staff perfect place to relax and people watch

Lovely hotel and friendly staff!

Stayed here for our 30th wedding anniversary, the staff were very helpful, the food excellent and the sea view was the icing on the cake, will definitely book again.

To start with positives, the Staff were excellent, helpful & friendly. I have a walking stick and on checking in the Lady at reception insisted in carrying our bag to the room. Everywhere was very clean. We ate in the hotel both nights. The food was excellent, as was breakfast. However the room was very disappointing. Very small & cramped and the lighting very poor. I could barely see to shave in the en-suite. Despite the good breakfast (evening meals not included obviously) the price charged was too high considering the room. Some of the stairs leading to the rooms had no handrail, potential for a fall and again corridors had very poor lighting. None of this would be fault of the Staff. Despite the excellent quality of food & staff based on room, we would not stay there again.

I got a fry and the egg wasnt cooked properly it made me feel sick

View was stunning breakfast was good

Staff friendly. Lovely sea view room. Food very nice

We love staying in the Avoca Hotel. Staff really go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need. The rooms are clean and fresh towels are put into your room every morning. If staying over the winter months rest assured you will never feel cold as each room has its own thermostat controlled radiator. An absolute pleasure to stay at this hotel.

The staff

We very much enjoyed a lovely one night stay at the Avoca. We had the most fantastic view from our room overlooking the sea and Mourne mountains. The room was really nicely decorated, cosy and had a large comfy bed. Everything was very clean and well presented. All the staff we came across were so friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was also excellent - great choice and plentiful. Overall a real gem of a stay and we will definitely be back!

We had a lovely welcome which set the scene for our entire stay. The bedroom was quirky and very comfortable with the most beautiful sea view. Staff were really friendly and breakfast was huge and really tasty. We loved our stay at Avoca and are already planning our next visit. Have recommended it to friends and family already.

Room on the small and and very dark. only one very low energy spot bulb in the ceiling. Room comfy enough but pretty basic. You're aware of traffic noise and noise from corridors but not from other rooms.

Faultless, lovely place and lovely staff. Great food!

Woke up at 7am from the washing machines/tumble dryer.

Lovely room with cracking view of the see. Parking very close and not far from town centre. Welcoming and friendly staff and good breakfast. Only thing I would mention was lack of storage in the room but we managed. Would stay again.

No beach view.

We had a wedding in Newcastle and decided to stay in the Avoca that night. I rang in advance to see if we could perhaps get an early check in to suit the early wedding and this was accommodated no problem. The hotel itself lovely and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The breakfast was beautiful also. If we’re back that way again we’ll definitely stay again.

Great views of the sea. The fish & chips is beautiful. The breakfast in the morning is piping hot it's definitely the best fry up I've had at a hotel. The staff are so friendly & helpful. The hotel has a very relaxed vibe. The wild hare bar is brilliant, there's live music on at night & the cocktails are delicious.

Clean room and beach view

A lovely 2 night stay at this very convenient hotel on Newcastle Main Street. Great view of the sea from the family room on the 1st floor. Staff were friendly and helpful, food was lovely including breakfast and with parking just round the corner it was a great location.
