It was my first time visiting Armagh, and i was so pleasantly surprised. I don't know what I was expecting, but arriving at the hotel was a great way to start it. I was warmly received, checkin was easy, and my room was modern, comfortable (a little warm for my taste, but easy to turn off the radiator). I stayed three nights, while in town for a music festival. Breakfast was fairly standard (the self-serve fried kind), but fine. The hotel has an attached conference center, and in addition to concerts for the music festival, there appeared to be other events happening there at the same time, though the only way you'd know was when you passed the open doors - there was no bleed-through of sound from one to the other, and plenty of room for everyone. Booking my room was easy online, but changing it was a little odd: they wouldn't do it over the phone, they said I had to email them. But that said, they did exactly what I asked (dropped a fourth night, close to the 48hour cancellation window), and changed my booking from two guests to one (which made a difference in the bed-and-breakfast rate), got it right first time, and sent me a confirmation by email within a couple of hours. All-in-all, 10/10 would recommend.

I did not stay overnight. We, 2 adults, went for a light snack,Sat 16th Nov. Service at the counter was just terrible. I had pity for the attendant at the till. Perhaps she was being trained in the job? A line of about 10 people waiting, so very slow to get 1 soup,1 quiche, 1 tea, 1 coffee. Surely the soup and quiche are already prepared, ready to serve?? Reluctant to return.

Rooms were comfortable and staff very friendly and helpful. A negative point was the quality of the food, which was generally poor. The worst aspect of the visit was a fight in our corridor in the middle of the night. Guests at a wedding party decided to kick the stuffing out of each other, and there was literally blood on the walls and carpets in the morning. It seems the hotel does a trade in stag parties and weddings - please bear this in mind before you book and it might be worth asking to be located on a floor away from the "revelers".

This hotel was a good choice for 1 night away. The staff are professional and helpful. The dinner we had at the bar was really tasty. We were charged the room fee at check in but the next day there was an extra charge - the lady at reception could not explain why we weren’t charged this at check in. The bar had live music until midnight and our room was right above the bar - so we didn’t fall asleep until a bit late. The staff at breakfast were not as friendly as the place looked very busy.

We recently had the pleasure of experiencing a 90-minute massage with Jane, and it was truly one of the best spa treatments I've ever had. From the moment I walked in, Jane made me feel incredibly comfortable and at ease. Her warm and welcoming demeanor instantly put me in a state of relaxation. The massage itself was absolutely amazing. Jane has an incredible touch and clearly knows how to work out every knot and tension point. I could feel the stress melting away as she expertly massaged each area. The combination of her skillful hands and the soothing environment made for an unbelievably relaxing experience. But what truly set this session apart was the use of the ion machine. I had never tried anything like it before, and I was amazed by the results. The ion machine lifted my face skin noticeably, giving me a refreshed and rejuvenated look. Jane explained the process to me and ensured I was comfortable throughout the treatment. The results were immediate and impressive, leaving my skin looking tighter and more youthful. Jane is not only incredibly talented but also a genuinely amazing lady. She is attentive, caring, and truly dedicated to ensuring her clients have the best experience possible. Her attention to detail and personalized approach made me feel valued and cared for. The entire experience was so comfortable and relaxing, I didn’t want it to end. If you're looking for a top-notch massage that will leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated, I cannot recommend Jane highly enough. Her 90-minute massage, combined with the ion machine, is a game-changer. I left feeling like a new person, with lifted and refreshed skin, and a deep sense of relaxation. Jane is truly a gem, and I can’t wait for my next visit!

Went for afternoon tea. The food was very nice, as were the staff. It was, however very busy. Staff were rushed off their feet as there was a conference on and the service was not great because of this. Again, the staff were lovely - this is obviously a management issue.

Not one to leave many reviews but... I have been using the fitness facilities here the last year.. I use day pass at different centres as membership doesn't suit me due to location and my work I dont think the gym equipment has been updated in 15+ years here Several pieces of equipment out of order.. Much more than the average gym The sauna has incredibly bright lighting for how it's actually supposed to be and also the sauna doesn't currently have a proper door.. which should have been replaced last year when it was faulty. The plunge pool is a small bath that is rarely actually cold.. And also really needs cleaned more frequently.. The shower next to the sauna resembles a garden hose on the least desirable setting to stand under The day pass price was increased by another 25% to £10... Quite disappointed..

Very hit and miss with this hotel at the best of times. This week we booked a table for 14 people and pre ordered food from the deli menu. When we arrived the deli the staff had forgotten to reserve/set up table for us, forgot to start the pre order and made mistakes on nearly half of our orders. We should have had our food by 12pm and at 12:50pm we were still waiting on our final meal. The most disappointing part was the attitude of the deli staff. They sent the bar man to apologise after the meal even though nothing was his fault. We were treated as a complete inconvenience to the deli even when we had made the booking well in advance. We will not be having any staff functions here again.

I do not recommend this hotel to anyone. Horrible customer service was screamed at down the phone by reservations. Had to cancel due to partner's disability and absolutely no empathy from the hotel at all. Called ahead to cancel and was assured and promised that I could cancel for free. I even asked the woman to double check for me that I would not be charged for the room. She said "no don't worry we wouldn't do that." A month later they charged my bank £140. Called to find out what was going on only to be shouted at down the phone by reservations department "you will not be getting a refund!" I was promised call backs from a manager and never received them. Had they have been honest and told me that I could not cancel for free I would have stayed by myself anyway instead of just throwing £140 at them for absolutely nothing.

Whenever my wife and I go home ( I was born in Armagh) we always stay here. Since our last visit, I've been diagnosed with ms, and walking is a big problem for me. The shower was a no-go for me because once the floor got wet, it became an ice rig. As you can guess I nearly fell the mat was so small it was useless. For the rest of our holiday I had a standing wash which was not ideal.

I was very lucky to have met wonderful people on a zoom call and they went out of their way to make me feel like an old friend.

I took my parents to the hotel restaurant for a special night out - it was the worst food I've eaten in years. Nothing was freshly cooked - it was all either frozen or from a packet. It was frankly insulting to all the diners. Northern Ireland has amazing produce and this popular venue would do well to show-case it. Start by employing a chef rather than a kitchen manager.

I was very impressed with the honesty shown by someone and to the hotel staff for keeping the cards safe for me.

Armagh City Hotel was always a great favourite of ours for a few drinks and the bar food menu. Now that things are beginning to return to normal we called in on Sunday evening for what we were hoping was going to be as good an evening as we had here in the past. We were not disappointed and if anything things had even got better in the meantime. It was obvious current covid restrictions were being observed and the bar was spotlessly clean and maintained that way by very attentive waiting staff. The food was excellent and our 2 steaks were cooked exactly the way we asked. As I mentioned the waiting staff, all looking so young, were really good and kept the show running but I would have to single out a young man called Callum who looked after us. Nothing was too much trouble for Callum and he makes a great Irish Coffee as well. He is a credit to his family and the hotel and I am sure he has a very bright future ahead of him whatever he decides to do in the future. Great to see that the Armagh City Hotel is back better than ever.

Arrived at 3.30 on a Sunday for carvery dinner but we were told carvery was over already!! Then had to wait to 4pm until bar food started. I ordered battered fish and chips and it was awful, fish was pale and soggy in the middle and mushy peas were bland. Chips tasted like frozen chips and had black bits all over them from dirty oil... Partner ordered Thai chicken strips (thin strips of fried chicken with a ‘Thai side salad’) as main with chips and was around £15 for this, way overpriced. Wasn’t great but better than the fish. Coca Cola was served in a tiny glass best thing about it was the bottle of orchard thieves! Very over priced it was over £30 for this and NOT worth it

Stayed here last Saturday night and we enjoyed our stay. On check in a lovely lady called Lisa checked us in and we where put in to one of the newly decorated room which we loved. The room was so modern and had that fresh new smell. We had a city view which was nice. As part of our room package we went on the cider tour which we also loved. Would never have known this existed only for the hotel advertising this on Facebook. The reason I knocked a point off my score as was really surprised that after the hotel recommending the tour that they didn't then sell the cider. It would have been really nice to have cider while we discussed the lovely tour we had over dinner. The dinner itself was nice and I thought the breakfast in particular was handled very well especially in these trying times. Would highly recommend that anyone that is visiting this hotel does the cider tour as the owners themselves gave the tour which made it so personal.

Lovely spacious surroundings and a fabulous, huge outdoor deck area. Sadly thIs visual pleasure was ruined by poor service both from bar and grill. Waited almost 15 mins to place a drink order via table service ending up having to go find a waiter and ask to be served. Tables not cleared of empties on many surrounding tables. Then into the grill for food. At least Another 15 mins Wait to have order taken. Requested a rare steak with arrived medium rare. Also ordered chicken Maryland and It was tasteless - chicken was tough and stringy, pineapple was burnt and sweet potato fries returned to kitchen as they were cremated. Again had to chase waiters for a drink order and then when meal was finished the table wasn’t cleared of dishes for 20 minutes. Whilst the hotel looks lovely I really can’t recommend the service and food.

Lovely dinner this evening with very helpful staff !This evening was my dads 86th birthday and we took him for dinner to his favourite place the local hotel. I mentioned on the way in it was his birthday and could we have a little surprise after dinner for him. Staff were very attentive all night. The bar manager was lovely and so discreet about the surprise and the person who took our order and served us Tiernan was especially attentive. It takes very little to please my Dad but he is was so tickled pink tonight with his ‘birthday chocolate cake’ dessert. Thanks to everyone in the restaurant this evening for taking such good care of us - dinner was fab as usual! Love to support local !

Went for dinner after a long day trip expecting to enjoy a family meal. Instead we got poor service. If you are a vegan, the only thing on the menu you can get is mixed vegetables and rice for 13 pounds after the staff have to require with the chef what is suitable (yes the manager did ask if we would like anything specifically made for us after it had been brought to his attention). This was all ok but still a lacklustre.The food arrived and the continental dish for one of us tasted as if it had been mixed with curry, something which was not wanted and not mentioned on the menu, yes again the manager asked if we would like another meal replacement, but at this point with everyone else having food there was no point in waiting for food for one person.Two portion of chips were ordered with the meal, the rest of us had already half finished when we asked are they on their way yet as one was for the vegan dish of mixed vegetables and rice, which makes a substantial part of the dish considering what the dish consisted off. Our meal was all finished when only one of the two ordered portion of chips came to the table and we informed the waiter that we did not want these chips on their own now.The 11 year old child in our group asked the waiter for the vegetable burger with no pickles, no coleslaw and could some beans come with the burger and mashed potatoes. I repeated this to the waiter to ensure he got this information and he said yes that’s ok. The burger was good, but no beans came, so again another mistake to add to all the previous problems.I myself enjoyed my chicken curry 9/10 for the taste, however due to so many mistakes to our order I could not enjoy my time there as we knew we had to still go and find food afterwards for one of our family members.We discussed this with the manager and yes he did his best to help, but the damage had already been done and our time had already been wasted without waiting for more meals to be prepared for some of our family members. We were told by the manager that these were all small mistakes and that they were busy, it was not as an excuse, but it was a reason these happened.Mistaken food orders are not a small mistake, the restaurant was not full of people, waiters were standing around, with in fact several approaching us to ask are we ready to order during the period of time that we are trying to decide what can be suitable for a vegan.If these are small mistakes, I would not like to see big mistakes, thank you but I will not be back.

In last night for a st Patrick’s drink and I can’t believe an establishment like this let’s the traveling community drink in it..If you are looking a nice hotel or a business meeting don’t come hereCouldn’t send a video because trip advisor don’t let videos.. I also tried to post pictures but trip advisor wouldn’t let me post them and I had to re do my original post.. sorry for telling the truth trip advisorbut the traveling community like most weekends fell out with each other and lead to fighting with some being smashed open leaving blood everywhere..Thankfully one of the bar tenders had a blue roll and got cleaning up straight awayThe police were called and there was at least 10 of them..I would advise for anyone’s safety to stay away from Armagh hotel between Friday and SundayHappens every weekendSort this out armagh hotel.. bouncers need to be stricter on who they let in and keep an eye on the customers.. no point in standing out the front door when it’s in the bar the alcohol is being drunk which fuels the aggression and they can’t seee this happening

Popped in here for lunch and opted to eat in the foyer area which is a large, bright, busy place with a café which serves a range of sandwiches, toasties, cakes etc. They have a good range of fillings and the quality was excellent – much better than we expected. We opted for 2 panini and demolished both of them. Service was excellent – very pleasant and helpful. My wife also enjoyed watching the comings & goings in the foyer whilst I found the free Wi-fi very handy. Would certainly use again.

I had been to the hotel carvery on several occasions but tried the restaurant on this occasion. There was a reasonable selection of starts, main courses and desserts, with dessert being free to pensioners who had ordered the first two courses. portions were quite generous and the speed of service was reasonable. Waitresses were pleasant and I would certainly return, though the hotel's carvery is also well worth a visit.

The hotel is in a great location and most restaurants and attractions are within walking distance. The rooms are spacious, very clean and comfortable. We had an evening meal in the Friary restaurant and found it very good, in particular the service was excellent. Breakfast on both mornings was hot and tasty. There was also a good cold selection. On the Sunday morning the restaurant was very busy and the staff remained civil and professional. Congratulations to all and thank you for making are visit pleasant.

A very reasonably priced cavery and great value for money. The beef was to die for. Cooked to perfection, thickly hand carved and plenty of it. Well done Chef.

This hotel has an excellent location just a few minutes walk to the city centre. Plenty of car parking space. The family room was spacious and clean and had everything we required. The swimming pool and spa area is satisfactory if rather dated. Swimming caps are required and can be bought at the pool. Breakfast is self service with a good selection of hot and cold items.

This hotel can cater for more than one event at a time and still manage to run like clockwork with no guests being neglected. I have no problem in recommending to friends and family.

Last week we visited about a party of 10. We got the carvery quick and easy but the guy behind the counter serving the meat was sooo grumpy- we had just come from a very sad funeral and this guy was miserable- this put us off and the waitress need to be trained better

It is Armagh's largest hotel, but a little dated and with limited services. For example the hotel restaurant was closed during our stay with no explanation.

This was my first visit to the Hotel and I wasn't disappointed. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The staff are friendly and helpful. The only downside was my room was on the front of the hotel and it is at the side of a very busy road. In fairness I was told they would make a note on my account to provide a room at the back of the hotel on my next visit.

There are 2 restaurants - the Friary and the Carvery, with the latter being more informal. Both had excellent service at all meals. Although they served massive portions of food, the food itself was a bit uneven. The steaks were terrific but the standard Irish fare was rather bland and overcooked. Good location with free parking.

I normally don’t write reviews, but on the last 2 visits to Armagh City Hotel I have had to return my “gluten free” meals to the kitchen as they were served to me with gluten still on them . on the first occasion, I received my chicken curry with a nan-bread placed on top of the meal, I explained I suffered from coeliac’s disease and this would result in me being severely ill. The dish was taken back to the kitchen where I watched the chef simply laugh , then scrape the dish onto another plate and send it back out to me. The second recent occasion I was there for a family occasion and even though it was again pointed out that I suffered from coeliac’s disease I was served a portion of chicken and ham that had clearly had the stuffing scraped off

I ordered the grilled duck breast. It was superb. Perfectly cooked and tasty. The chef accommodated my allergy restrictions and served up a dish worthy of fine dining in the big city.
