Top Spot

Our stay was fantastic. It’s lovely to feel that you’re spoilt in a place and it’s even a little better than if you were home(!) Things like the GHD hairdryer, the Dyson(?) heater, the complimentary mini bar, the bath bomb the gorgeous coffee pods and the pillow spray all add to the feeling that you’re definitely on holiday and spoilt! Galgorm has taken the top spot in our list of places we most like to stay - we will look forward to our next opportunity to be back.

Brilliant from start to finish, from the wee man at the front door doing the complimentary valet parking to the waiting staff was exceptional, the food was just beautiful in all the restaurants especially the Castle kitchen restaurant and the added bonus was the transport to the castle , excellent!!!! The spa and thermal village is just amazing even in January!!!! We will definitely return in the not too distant future, 5 star !

All Round Top Class 11/10

Firstly the staff on check in were amazing. Couldnt have been anymore helpful. The facilities are the best ive ever seen. The range of eateries on site are top class. We got a Woodpecker delivered to our sheppards hut and it was delicious. The Sheppards hut itself is outstanding. So comfy and homely. We could live here. Cant wait to get back and stay again.

Overnight with thermal village

Overnight stay at half term with great time spent in the thermal village. Lots of great facilities to enjoy. Good dinner in Gillies. However the hotel misses the opportunity to provide fine dining in the river room.

The Galgorm is a wonderful facility in a beautiful location but there is no doubt that what really makes the experience is the staff. Galgorm, you should be so proud of each and every one of them. They’re outstanding!
