Fir Trees Hotel in Strabane

Excellent hotel and very polite staff

I went to a private function. The atmosphere was great.

Everything from start to finish was 5 stars. The receptionist was very friendly, and the rest of the staff always had a smile and a friendly demeanour. I had the Classic 50/50 in the restaurant. Staff were attentive and the food was lovely. Tender chicken and perfect steak with just the right amount of side order. On Saturday night there's live music and whilst not Bruce Springsteen the singer could belt out a tune and everyone was enjoying themselves. The rooms were clean and the usual was provided. No skimping on the tea or milk. Good size TV though no SKY (that was in the bar) and I had a choice of Election results or The Patriot which I had seen a dozen times. The Patriot won hands down 😂 Even on leaving the receptionist asked How was my stay along with one of the cheery staff. I will definitely come back here again. Highly recommended.

The Sunday carvery was delicious. The soup to being with was very tasty and then the main course. With a choice of 4 meals, beef, lamb turkey and gammon, you can choose 2 meals with you lunch. There were many vegetables to choose from and then the two cocktail sausages and the Yorkshire pudding to top it all.off. the the choice of desserts and tea and coffee to top it all off. The staff were very friendly and the fact that it was out first time to eat in there, we will be back next week. Extremely good value for money.

First time eating at this hotel and it won't be the last, the Sunday carvery was excellent and all the staff could not do enough. All in All a very good experience and l would recommend it to everyone.

Great place for stay, friendly and welcoming staff, need to do fews updates in room and maintenance. Overall everything good

Only.hotel.n.strabane great bands on at weekend

Overall I’m not satisfied but understandably it is a 3 star hotel, the staff were kind but the service isn’t up to standard, rooms aren’t cleaned and breakfast is very but very basic

We had a lovely lunch recently. Service was great and food was very tasty.

It was a fair hotel. Everything worked but needs attention to doors , paint and floors.

Great place for dinner you have to go up to the restaurant to order food to be delivered to ur room. Location is only 15 min walk from town centre. The bypass is a lovely walk beside it if you fancy a long walk.

Loved the food and staff are wonderful definitely returning in a few weeks

A beautiful place to dine in and very friendly

Dylan started playing bloody Mary skibidi in my bathroom and haunted me, would go again

Stayed here for one night for work. The receptionist was friendly and helpful and overall, the staff are all polite, friendly and helpful. The rooms however are underwhelming and a bit shabby. I stayed in room 102, which is right next to the door to access the corridor for the rooms, and was pretty noisy with other guests wandering up and down. You're also directly beside reception, so when people are stood outside smoking and chatting, that is all you can hear. Would be nice if reception could monitor the noise after 10pm and ask smokers to keep the noise down, as I was disturbed more than once. I was also unable to turn the radiator off, turning the valve made no difference. The mirror in the room was dirty and the bathroom was shabby, with drips of paint everywhere and an unfinished edge to the counter where the sink is. The towels were also stained. The food was ok. I had the steak fajitas, with boiled potatoes. The steak came in a sauce that I didnt enjoy. I ordered room service and the plates were delivered with only a spoon and no napkins. I'm not sure how they thought I was going to eat the potatoes, so had to go and ask for a knife and fork. I had had a long day the previous day, been up since 4.30am for a flight and then a full day of work, so had decided to sleep a bit longer, only to be disturbed at 8am by some scraping and banging noises outside of my room window, opened the window to find a man scraping the paint off of the next door window sill outside. When I asked if it was necessary to do that at 8am, he advised it needed to be painted today. I said, I have paid to stay here and am still in bed! He apologised and moved but why would a hotel allow maintenance to start at 8am?! Overall, not worth the £109 paid and would not stay here again.

Sick and tired if trying to eat local and promote this place, had a meal today the menu had nothing Strabane familiar so we had a starter with no plates beef fajita and salted chilli chicken caeser, I paid my bill in full that give my opinion, a dog would not eat both dishes, The fajitas sauce tasted like it was made by the local IRA fuel laundering department and the chicken caeser would have been ok. If it wasn't smothered in sweet chilli sauce ( never heard volcanic ash being called that before) both meals were left almost intact on the plate, It's Strabane for feck sake keep your food simple and improve your customer service,

I visited for dinner in May 2024. The restaurant is quaint and humble; and, the staff, exceptional. On the recommendation of our server, who has worked with the restaurant since 1988, I had the chicken melt with garlic potatoes on the side. Absolutely divine. The chicken sat on a bed of mash and veg, topped with fried onions, cheese and bacon. The flavours were well balanced. And the portions were great for the price. The garlic marinated potatoes were amazing. I would highly recommend and most definitely return.

The staff understand customer service and were very accomodating to my disabled family members Great place

Attended a function. From reception to bar/restaurant the staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Just back from a lovely stay at the Fir Trees. Wonderful staff food excellent. Always receive such a warm welcome when we stay here.

Rooms are poor quality If you just want to eat fried food or very basic sandwiches this is the place for you. Expensive for what you get.

in thu 03/21/24 got small breakfast and pot of coffee and toast was well done great place very clean and the staff are very helpful friendly and tell other people and ones who here for a holiday AWESOME

Was there for a meal only so can't comment on rooms or room service. As for the food, it was nice, well presents, tasty, filling and not to expensive . Would recommend to others

I would like to thank the staff and management on behalf of Rosemary Drama Group Belfast who stayed at Fir Trees for the Ulster Drama Festival at Alley Theatre Strabane 2024. The hospitality and service was excellent, and the rooms were more than adequate. Thanks so much for the warm welcome. We will be back !

Just left fur tree hotel after a family meal and have to say what a meal everyone really enjoyed food was great service great had a great night

Lovely meal and drinks served by friendly local staff.

Lovely place where to stay in Strabane

Always enjoy staying there staff are so friendly food is great and always helpful will be back

Lovely dinner and great service

Had a birthday celebration here recently. The staff were excellent especially Joe and Danielle. Constantly checking everyone was ok, very efficient, helpful and friendly. The food was amazing and the music. Thank you everyone 😊

The,Sunday carvery was lovely great choice and value for money

Recently stayed for bed and breakfast. We found the price very reasonable and rooms clean. The staff to be very polite and helpful. So much so my wife left a dress in our bedroom and a member of staff came running out into the car park just before we drove away. We would have no bother recommending this hotel.

Your meau's need to be replaced. By newer one your one is dirty. The sweet menu is even worse. One good thing is your fish and chips 1st class. We are coming tomorrow for a meal all 3 of us. I

Excellent hotel, will definately stay there again. Very friendly staff who eccelled at their positions really felt at home there on this my first visit!👍

Very competent service and wonderful food throughout...

Nicest Turkey and Ham I have had in years

At an event in the big room, and it was like 8°C the whole night.

Went for a meal and food was lovely and good value for money, staff very nice

Went here with a group of friends for a Christmas party night. First problem staff rude. 2nd problem Went to the bar to have a drink as I was early. Waited for ages before anyone spoke to me. Then was told that as I was at the Christmas party event I couldn't purchase a drink at the bar. The girl that booked the table asked for a specific table which was agreed but this didn't happen. She also asked for 2 bottles of wine to be on the table again this didn't happen. There was a trainee barman left on his own to deal with 350 guests no drink order could be taken at the table the food when it arrived was cold. An absolute shambles. When people complained they were told that someone would get back to them. Still waiting for the phone call. This place is certainly not worthy of being the only and premier hotel in Strabane. My complaint is not isolated as I have since spoken to people that attended on different evenings who also had the same experience. Except for the fact that the premises were freezing and nobody could take their coats off. On subsequent night's they put patio butane gas heaters in. Give this hotel a wide birth!!!

Met some friends for dinner and drinks. Drinks served promptly. Menu is a good all rounder and there was a saver menu option also. I had Brie to start. Crisp coating. Unfortunately cheese had melted out leaving not much actual cheese inside the wedge. What I had was tasty. Cajun salmon - nice sized portion, salmon cook was nice, lovely sauce although I couldn’t taste any chorizo. Mash could have been more plentiful. Vegetables were average with some green carrots which probably shouldn’t have been served. Americano to finish was excellent. Overall it was a pleasant meal and I ate all but a few tweaks and this could have been elevated.

Staff were great. Food was OK and reasonably priced. Room was cold as heating was poor. Overall the room looked tired and needed some attention.

As i have stayed here a number lf times in the past, i didnt think i would have any problems, but i was very disappointed, a hotel that doesnt have disabled access , the lift was sitting idle. I had to try and help my disabled mother up 10 steps to the room and the night mare of the return descend. I had requested a disabled access. Nobody got back to me to inform me of the lack of these facilities. She was unable to shower as there was no secure rails in the shower. The Lovely staff couldnt appoligies enough for the inadequate facilities.

Terrible service by ignorant staff! Absolutely disgusted. Stay well clear 🤮🤮

lovely place with a clean appartement, good bar and friendly stuff

Thanks for making us feel welcome for my wife's 60th birthday ,comfy beds and receptionists were lovely nice surprise of cake in bedroom ,food lovely in restaurant , will be back again ,special thanks to the lovely girls on reception

Never been here but Google want me to review

Was in her to day for Sunday dinner we were in at 3 o clock I had my twin girls age 20 months and 2 friend with another child age 3 once we ordered and got are starters we had been waiting an hour and 10 mins for are main to come out children were sitting with no food that whole time we had to end up asking wat was going on as u could imagine with 3 young children at that age they were getting fed up once food was eventually brought out they walked away with seeing did we need anything else had to go looking for more drinks and space etc a table of 4 and 6 were in after us and were all up and away as we were half way threw are main then we sat waiting for 20 mins before calling some one to take dessert order and once we spoke to them about they didn't seem to care my one the way out on of my twins ran behind the reception and the women behind was so cheeky about it just was awful treatment

Friendly staff good service good food

Where I always stay, when in Strabane. The hotel is modern, clean, with competent and helpful staff, and many amenities. Prices aren't cheap, but they are reasonable and they have facilities to accommodate various social functions, such as wedding receptions, retirement parties, and the like. Beyond the specifics of the hotel, Strabane is a lovely, wee town, situated right on the border between the six counties and the 26, and very close to all the historic and cultural offerings of Derry.

Excellent Menu and Food I had Herb Cod too die for Desert was yum Price good

Great food, lovely staff, would stay again 👍👍👍

Great food today service was great good atmosphere x

Good bar food menu,EV charger in car park

Food good but very poor disabled toilet hand rail and toilet seat broke

Pretty fair, good food, good entertainment

We were a party of 4, celebrating my niece’s birthday. It was a Tuesday evening, and there were a surprising number of diners, perhaps because of the 25% discount for food, but certainly because of the quality of the food and the charming efficiency of the staff, under the leadership of Joseph. Well worth a visit. Any time!!

Myself and friends attended here for evening meal 10 of us and everyone enjoyed there meal steak first class

Very comfortable hotel with excellent food and staff

Food was great. Service a little slow. The place was packed full though

Great value for money 5 course Carvery dinner cant fault anything about the food everything was 1st class

We go often to the fir trees for lunch it’s only 4.95 for the lunch and there’s always a few dishes to chose from , it’s always a great meal no matter what we choose, we have tried lots of different dishes in the fir trees and we have never been disappointed, we have had family and friends from England, Newry and strabane to the fir trees with us to lunch and evening meals and always excellent, the staff are always very friendly

Ate in the restaurant, could not fault the staff or food. All staff we met were so friendly and there was a great atmosphere. The food was amazing! Chicken tacos a must as well as hosin duck and the bill was very reasonable. We definitely will be back!

Friendly place, pleasant staff, nice atmosphere and food mostly good. The chips let the meal down, however. When I paid, the staff member asked me what I thought about the meal. I commented that the chicken was excellent, but the chips were very poor; I got no response whatsoever.

Have an allergy. Was told by staff "should have gone to oysters". Terrible choice for allergy sufferers made no effort to make food taste good, was so bland. Was throughly disappointed. Its 2019 they need to move with the times. No vegan options either

We regularly have Sunday lunch in the fir trees.It is always good and the staff are excellent but lately we have noticed that the tea and coffee is Luke warm. Yesterday we got the tea directly after it was brought out and it was quite cool.Apart from this complaint , lunch at the fir trees is great value and a pleasure to visit

This is a lovely hotel nice relaxed bar in it and food is beautiful and very pleasant staff

Just returned from a 4 days stay at this lovely hotel. Great accommodation all refurbished this year. Excellent food and wide choice on menu. First class service by a very friendly and professional staff team who can't do enough for you. Highly recommended and looking forward to our next stay there.

Food always great staff welcoming an pleasant

Met family and friends from Strabane, Derry, Glasgow, and Edinburgh and we stayed at the Fir Trees Hotel. We ate several meals there and the food was excellent and the staff very friendly and kind. Very happy with the whole experience!

Stayed here for one night....had dinner in the bar. Was good food . I had one of their burgers which was very good. My husband had chicken and steak which he thoroughly enjoyed. He felt his portions were a little small.. but overall we both enjoyed our meals .

The food was fantastic. Great menu with wide range of choices. I had the blackened salmon which was very tasty with a fantastic sauce and basil mash. Friend had duck which was also very food. This place e has very friendly staff and is well worth a visit. Reasonably priced as well.

Meal was beautiful and staff was brilliant

We had booked for 4 people (our Mum & her 3 daughters) and had the most wonderful, fresh & tasty spread. Service staff were very attentive & friendly. It was a busy afternoon but we were in a quiet part of the dining room and felt in no rush to leave. Some of us upgraded to a prosecco 'tea' - all such a very reasonable cost.

Dinner was a nightmare had to wait in line for 40 minutes when I finally got it could not eat it will have no desire to ever go back

Very enjoyable. Good food and pleasant staff.

Had a few lunches , all superb, brilliant catering for couples who like me doesn't pay to buy and prepare food, keep up the good work

Very good value and very pleasant staff

I wholeheartedly endorse the previous review by Departure44761 having attended the same function at which 58 ladies approx attended - I must add that all meals were pre ordered - my meal was fair - plates and vegetables including the room was cold - i was very disappointed overall as I have attended various functions in a different room where staff and food was excellent - I must also point out that the Fir trees were chosen as a new venue for our dinner - the general consensus is that the ladies will not want to visit in the near future!!!

A REAL Homely Restaurant and both the Food and Staff are 10/10. I COULDN'T recommend it highly ENOUGH.

We haven't been in here in a while and thought we would call in on Saturday late afternoon.

Waitresses were wandering around aimlessly with no idea where to go and who to serve. The food came out intermittently to different tables. Hot starters were cold and by the time the main course was being served out the plates were cold. The vegetables which were cold were brought out at different stages on a soup plate. Some ladies weren't able to eat their beef and a few dishes had to be sent back! The two dishes which were meant to be supreme of chicken were served as peppered chicken! These were served so late that there wasn't time to ask for a replacement. When asked for extra vegetables they never appeared. The chocolate dessert was not eaten by most ladies who received it. What was supposed to be a special occasion turned out to be a dreadful experience.

Nice hotel only called in for a pint but looks a nice place for food.

A busy place at lunch time which meant service was a little slow. Food is good. They do a couple of specials which are very reasonably priced. When ordering drinks be sure to say no ice if that is your preference

Had dinner here last night, staff kept appearing at the table with food and drink for other tables, not sure why they don't know which table the food/drink is for? bit confused.

the food was pretty bad and the service was also awful. the hotel is not good but is not even woth 2 stars

Must say food was absolutely amazing and very cheap desert was awesum to. Place was well packed and staff were quick with your order

Stop here for food and wasn't disappointed

My daughter and her 2 wee mates went to avail of the cinema package during the week. All went well till they ordered there dessert. They brought my daughter the wrong thing and she explained it wasnt what she ordered. The girl did change it but then another member of staff came over and asked her could she just not of ate it. Would she have asked that if it had if been a group of adults? Surely if u are a paying customer you deserve the same rights. They were so embarrassed as they are not very confident. It was a wee special occasion for them and took alot of persuading for them to go on their own. Not a great experience for them.

Stayed here on business many times and found it to be an excellent hotel. Good food reasonable prices friendly atmostphere.

went back today after our previous visit 3 weeks ago and it was just as fantastic. plenty of choices especially for my 13 year old and Mum. food was lovely and hot and the beef is melt in the mouth, the nicest I have had in a long time.

The Fir Trees is one of the best eating experiences on this planet and then to top it off you get 30% off your mains on a Wednesday. Apart from the economics it is consistently good food and really you have to try it yourself as I feel that my words cannot do it justice. You just have to try it or you will miss a feast fit for a king.

Having lived in strabane for 12 years, there are places that you say you should only visit once for fear of disappointment the next time. The fir trees hotel is the exception. I've stayed there as a guest, eaten as a dinner and even used the business and convenient facilities. The most striking feature of the hotel is the cuisine. It is second to non and truly outstanding. If you get the Sunday carvery, you will be ruined for restaurants afterwords. Yes, the food is that good. Please, don't just take my word for it. If you're passing through strabane or want somewhere awesome to eat, there's no better place than the For Trees Hotel.

Highly recommend. I would advise reserving a table if going for sunday cavery.
