The Royal Hotel, hotel in Stranraer

Located in town center of Stranraer, The Royal Hotel features a beer garden and bar. Stranraer train station is a 10-minute walk away and the Stena and P&O ports are located nearby.

Excellent location downtown. Good jumping off point for exploring the area. And the guy that runs the place (I never did get his name) was really helpful with suggestions for places to see.

A 8-minute walk from Stranraer Beach in Stranraer, Thornbank House offers accommodations with access to a hot tub, fitness room, and steam room.

Room was very comfortable and well appointed; TV needed a wee bit of attention but then worked perfectly (previous guest had been fiddling with it!); breakfast was one of the best cooked breakfasts I have enjoyed when staying away from home - freshly cooked to order and very tasty! A big 10/10 - eggselent!

    There are nice scenic spots to visit near / around Stranraer, such as Castle Kennedy gardens, Port Logan, Logan House estate whose owner donated part of their gardens to become today’s Stranraer Logan Botanic Garden. You can also visit Castle St John in the town centre, as well as the museum. You can even come to join us for African drumming fun every fortnightly Thursday ! I myself travel 3.5 hours every fortnight on Thursday to practise African drum with this group whose drumming standard is very very high ! Always great fun ! That’s why I am willing to travel 7 hours door to door for my drumming fun every two weeks ! And, although I bring my own home-cooked food here, I also eat at some nice bistros and cafes.

    A small, interesting working town on the west bank of Loch Ryan, visited right at the beginning of the season. Henry's Bay House Restaurant is excellent for food and the Ryan Centre has a swimming pool as well as a theatre/cinema with a good programme. There is a great view of the loch and Stranraer is ideally situated for exploring all of Dumfries and Galloway. The people are very friendly, helpful and welcoming.

    The people.

    The people. Roy came out of his store and greeted us and then walked us to two great places to eat. At the Caslte Hotel we were treated like royality. It was before supper time so they made fixed up our table and served us in style. The food and service was wonderful. David was our taxi driver for all our stay and was also a wonderful guide to the area.

    Stranraer is a ferry port with good bus links to Dumfries.

    Stranraer is a ferry port with good bus links to Dumfries. The tow, itself had a "sedate ' feel to it. Traffic was slow and polite. Lots of fish and chips shops. The central castle / tower house is the only place of interest and museum. Famous centre for curling with rink open in winter months.

    The owner was absolutely lovely and accommodated our early check-in as we had just driven two hours with two small children. There was a Park with a Cafe just across the street from the hotel, which was perfect when you have little ones that want to stretch their legs or go for a walk by the seaside. Very walkable to local restaurants or the grocery store. We would definitely stay here again or recommend it to anyone visiting the area. It was about a 15 minute drive to the ports as we were taking a ferry the next day so it was very convenient.

    Large room with good facilities and a beautiful view. Chairs and table by the window to look out from. Our room was cleaned and replenished during the day. Our host was very accommodating and happy to make an early breakfast which was very tasty. We visited the area to go to the Wee Aird Dairy Farm which was amazing. There are some other wonderful places to visit near Stranraer - Logan Botanical Garden, Mull of Galloway and Castle Kennedy Gardens. We had glorious weather too!

    Had a fantastic stay at The Craignelder Hotel. The room was large, as was the en suite and bed was huge and comfy. The food great, plentiful and very reasonably priced. As for the staff, they were brilliant, very helpful, especially were to visit in the area. The area has stunning scenery, and plenty of places to visit. Well worth a visit.

    Some 5star hotels I’ve done over the years could take a lesson from this hotel. Had to leave early for personal reasons but, welcoming, great locals in the communal bar, treated like a friend, can’t fault anything! Central location, cheery and fun. Top stuff!

    We had a lovely view of the yard from this small, but comfortable upstairs room. It was nice being on a farm and the location was perfect for an early trip to the ferry. We had a quiet and peaceful nights sleep. Parking was free and near the entrance.
