Went for a meal with some friends and it was enjoyable. Service excellent everyone was friendly and helpful. Great as we had 4 vegetarians who had no issues at all. Food was very enjoyable, no complaints, not fine dining but good. Only 4 stars as the place is a bit dated. All looked clean and in good order, just a bit dated. Grounds, however, are beautiful.

The Sunday carvery is very good. Also can take away. Staff and food is very good. Never had a bad experience at the Banville.

We stayed in one of the glamping pods, absolutely amazing experience to get away, even for one night. We were pleasantly treated when we checked it, we were well looked after if we needed anything. Service at dinner was amazing, very polite and professional. The dinner was absolutely gorgeous, tasty dinner. The pod itself was beautiful inside, can't exaggerate how massive the bed was. We had tv, wifi, fridge, mini oven and heating of course. Access to your own private hot tub beside the pod, it was amazing to chillax. Definitely recommend and definitely would be back!

The hotel is OK however it's a little tired. With a little investment it would be a stunning place..

23 people booked in for 3 nights. was advised pods were available so we booked 3 pods. at no point was it communicated that the hot tubs were not included. We asked how much to be added on (willing to pay the extra) to be told it takes 24 hours to fill again I agreed and said this was OK to then to told its not possible because the filters need changed. we have been waiting for rooms since 11.30 knowing we would be arriving early no rooms available for a quick change not even 1 room. around 1.30 a bus load of people arrived to check in and got their rooms quickly while our 23 people are still waiting for their rooms. it is now 20 past 3 (check in from 3pm) we are still waiting on rooms being available. This is totally unacceptable. We have never been treated this is before anywhere!

Went here as part of a coach trip tonight. I had to wait long after the others were served and when my meal came the portion was absolutely miserable compared to the others. The dessert was a tiny square of cheesecake. Not happy and very poor.

Waited almost 2 hours for our meal. Manager apologized as she'd not entered it into the tablet properly. The manager/server wouldn't even look at us when she finally brought our meals. I'd asked for two of our drinks (a round to be comp'd) this was agreed to. When the bill came drinks were still included. When we finally our meal as we started eating the DJ from the bar started blaring. This wasn't exactly a relaxing atmosphere. I went to close the door so we could hear ourselves think and staff repeatedly opened it (we were the last in the dinning hall). My friend lives in the area and wants to go back as it's close. The service was so bad I'd not even go if my meal was paid for. This visit has set the bar for my all time worst meal out. That being said the food was quite good and the cocktails were excellent.

Room was brilliant to be fair can't fault it service was the same. Room very spacious and clean eith great views. Service was fab any issue we had was delt with. Looks like work is being done as seen wooden camping huts 🛖 there so looks like it's expanding its field. Location was OK if your local or drive 🚗 but as we were only there for a few days we were a little far out from Belfast for our liking. If you want a quiet 🤫 place to stay to relax thus is a great place to go.

Edit: 1st post This is a great place to eat. We have been a few times and the portions (at least what I got) where big. The staff are really friendly and willing to help. I haven't stayed here but judging by the food and service I would. I would not recommend here, the place has went down hill. This is our second bad experience. We where the only ones there and for some reason the TV got more attention as there was no volume on it. We didn't even ask for the TV to be on. I got dessert and between 5-10min I had to leave it as I think they expected me to eat it with my hands. The dinner wasn't great. My rice tasted as though it had been reheated in the microwave. Now I have to say the girl at reception was lovely and really helpful. She made sure I got somewhere comfortable to breastfed my son. She also took my dessert of the bill.

Thank you to Lynn and all the staff at The Banville Hotel for providing us with their function room recently for our charity night of music. We had a great evening to raise funds for The Paul Russell Foundation in memory of our son Paul. X

I know this place well, the staff are friendly and helpful. I gave it 3 stars because the food can be a bit ' hit and miss'. Sometimes I go and the food you couldn't fault it, it's brilliant, but other times it's not. But they are improving the place with redecorating etc, but I would like the food to be consistently good.

Went here for dinner sat 17th feb, they had a valentines theme dining room and there was music setting up. The service was terrible. We were seated pretty quick but took 35mins for anyone to take our order. The food was superb but the wait in between courses was far to long. In the end we decided against dessert as we didn't want to wait.

The hotel is very nice, the staff is very kind and courteous, the room and the bathroom of the room are very nice and spacious, the location of the hotel is also ideal... The only problem is the most important thing, are the hygiene and cleanliness of the room I stayed in, for the price paid and the type of hotel, the room is really dirty (bed sheets and pillow covers were stained, with yellow stains of various sizes and shades and the pillows bed smelled bad) then there were huge cobwebs on the ceiling of the room, also all the furniture in the room, a table, the two bedside tables and everything else were full of dust (we had to clean everything with damp handkerchiefs, which immediately became black) even the kettle that was in the room, the bottom was completely covered with a yellow gelatinous layer, which had certainly never been cleaned! But the hotel staff was super nice and replaced it with a new one. In the end, if the hotel improves the cleanliness of the rooms, when the bed sheets remain stained, it replaces them with new ones, I would recommend the this hotel, but for now if it remains in these conditions, I do not recommend it to anyone!

We have no score for rooms as we have only dined at Downshire Arms. The building is quaint and the decor hasn't changed for many years but this is all part of its charm. It is refreshing to walk into the lobby which is accessed from the rear car park. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The food is excellent and always freshly cooked and piping hot when it arrives at your table. The staff are very friendly and very helpful. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. The car park at the rear is small and fills up quickly but there is lots of easy access parking within a few minutes walk of the Hotel. I really do recommend The Downshire Arms fir its great food and serv8ce, you will not be dissapointed!

I've tried my particular dish of chicken & mushrooms, at all the other Chinese restaurants in Banbridge and I have to recommend The Great Wall as they are by far, in my opinion, totally superior. I asked for no peppers and they never forget. The onions are cut to the size I love. Top quality 👌

Chicken was awful. It's not even freshly cooked. They cook it that day, put it in the fridge, and then reheat it. They have the nerve to call it freshly cooked chicken. My boot would have been easier to eat and less work for my jaw. The chips are no better
