Stayed here one night enroute to Dublin. Checked in after 21.30 when there was no staff present. Easy enough as they left a note for us outlining the codes and to do's. Clean, spacious rooms with lake view. Breakfast can be found at the bottom of the stairs which is cereals, croissants and yogurts. 10 minutes drive from here to Holyhead ferry port. Clean roo

Accommodating host

We were delayed due to car trouble well beyond the check-in timeframe. The hotelier was understanding and supportive resulting in a swift check-in and well needed night’s sleep.

Ferry port friendly

One night stay on way to ferry port. Very convenient and makes more sense than catching the 0240 option. Got a good nights sleep before continuing journey.

Lovely view in our room. The building is old but room was very clean and the bed was comfy. Breakfast is not continental but it's ok (cereals, milk, yogurt, fruit, juice...) There isnt much to do around the area so I would say it's ok for a overnight stay.

Es sollte darauf hingewiesen werden, daß es KEINEN Restaurantbetrieb, lediglich die Bar offen ist. Das includierte Frühstück besteht aus Obst, Cerealien, Milch, Keksen, verpackten Schokobrötchen, Orangenmarmelade und Joghurt in Selbstbedienung und erreicht geringe Erwartungen kaum. Weder Toast noch Wurst oder Käse sind erhältlich. Gegessen werden kann auf dem Bett, ein Speiseraum ist nicht vorhanden bzw nicht ausgewiesen.

We had a great nights stay here. Please don’t be put off by some of the reviews. The room was clean and spacious. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room. Comfy bed and plenty of pillows! It’s a great base to explore the local area. The host was very friendly and the bar was perfect for grabbing a drink and sitting outside in the sunshine with it.

The Anchorage Hotel, was easy to find, parking was good, room was clean, spacious and comfortable beds. There was a grass area behind accommodation which was handy to take my dog to relieve herself. There was a bar lounge in main building that was open from 4pm, unfortunately I did not make use of the bar facilities. There was no restaurant facilities during our stay and the breakfast was a help yourself area on the ground floor of the accommodation block. It was well stocked with a variety of small cereal boxes, fresh fruit bowl, individual wrapped pastries and a fridge with milk and a selection of yoghurts. If you prefer a cooked breakfast there is a small cafe behind the Spar store.

Thought I'd stay over night rather than getting the late ferry arriving in Dublin 1:50am, I so wish I'd got the ferry - would have saved money and probably been more comfortable. Feel like I've been ripped off paying for something that failed to deliver. No restaurant, no bar, no staff (that I saw). Room was fairly clean to be fair but bathroom smelt, no blind on window in a ground floor bathroom ! Very, very tired unloved place, think I was 1 of only 3 people staying there. Premier Inn would have been better option and I normally avoid them favouring none chain hotels.
Breakfast - laid out at the foot of stairs next to fire exit, no seating. Help yourself and take it back to room. Not quite same as web-site.

The gentleman in charge was lovely, however it was disappointing to discover the breakfast was only cereal, pre-packed pastries and yoghurt to eat in your room, and the quality of the tea was very poor. A hotel with so much potential, but sadly fading.

The hotel was clean and comfortable, the Continental breakfast was adequate. Out of 25 rooms, only about 3 were occupied, there was no restaurant service, and it felt as if the hotel was "winding down".

I don't want to do it down as the room was brilliant and a really comfortable bed. The hotel is up for sale, all the staff were made redundant last October. There is no kitchen therefore no meals. The breakfast was 'grab and go', cereal, cakes, yoghurt, no option for diabetics.

Avoid if you can

Check in was perfunctory. Not told about WIFI, just where room was across the car park and continental breakfast was in a room near the stairs. This was little bigger than a cupboard with boxes of cereal, some fruit and a small wine fridge with out of date milk, yogurts and orange juice, an individually packaged croissants and marmalade - who eats croissants with marmalade. There was a microwave to warm croissants. There was nowhere to sit so had to take to room where there was no table. The TMV valves were missing on radiators so couldn't regulate the heat. Room was clean but very old and needing a major upgrade. Lighting was poor and unable to read a book, TV was old flat screen, not a SMART one. The wet room had good shower but no fan that worked the switch was tapped over with insulation tape. The cleaner said that she could not sort the milk situation out till the bosses arrived at 9.30am. So we found out there was no one on site overnight!! For £108 a night this was very poor and we should have gone to the travel lodge

Ordered a triple room but got a double bed and a single which meant sharing a bed! Breakfast is cereal and packet pastries that you help yourself to and take back to your room. Room was clean but tired. Staff were really nice.
