The food, drinks and staff were all superb. The spa was also top drawer, we'd heard such good reports from friends who have visited here and it did not disappoint. We've had an amazing time, everything from start to finish was top class. Genuinely the best hotel we have stayed in here in NI, and I'm not just saying that

Just enjoyed an absolutely fabulous 2 days at this hotel and spa celebrating my sisters 50th. Everything about the stay was excellent and the spa was something else, it has to be experienced. The room was very modern and a wide range of amenities, all food we sampled was delicious and the staff all went above & beyond. Thank you to the Rabbit hotel for making this celebration so special and I can’t wait for an excuse to return

Spent a 1 night stay with my wife on the full works package and really enjoyed our stay, it's not your run of the mill luxury hotels , more of a quainty/boutique vibe which i personally enjoy. Very well maintained gardens and plants that are plentyfull and placed in areas creating a nice environment. Staff were friendly and helpful at all times , Adam escorted us to our room and was pleasant / enthusiastic to share information. We met a Tunisian barman , a Greek man and a Polish man along with some homegrown members of staff all on point!! Treatments were great .a jacuzzi's every where with various pressures. We will be back. Oh and Rachel bid us farewell ✌️ E & B

We arrived on Saturday and was extremely disappointed. The Roman bath was cold. The bar attendant said it was 35 degrees but it definitely wasn’t, or felt it. We couldn’t stay in long. The jacuzzi’s were packed because everyone avoided the bath so we didn’t experience this. The food was average, my fillet steak was exceptionally small, over done and at £50 ridiculously priced. I had a guest over from England with me and unfortunately she just wanted to leave early as she was too cold. I paid £180 for the spa and meal and expected a lot more. We won’t be back

Spa is amazing. Food and drinks excellent - great cocktails. The only thing we were disappointed with was our bathroom in our room. The grouting was mouldy, there was damp on the wall causing paint to peel. Rooms unfortunately do not reflect the standard of the overall hotel and amenities

Stayed on a Sunday night - the spa facilities are great, the jacuzzis are hot and the bigger pool is a bit cooler. Love the new waterbeds near the pool. The beds were really comfortable and loved the room. Food was great at the restaurant. We got the banana ketchup wings (don’t let the name put you off, they don’t taste like banana), duck leg (this was nice wasn’t a huge fan of the base food underneath the duck but personal preference), pizza was great and we also got the garlic potato terrine (loved), friend got the poutine fries and said they were great. We also got a cocktail made by the concierge before dinner which was lovely. Reception were very friendly when checking in and out. Would recommend.

Mum & I had the most wonderful relaxing time at the retreat. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms are spotless, so beautiful & equipped with everything you really need, the bed was unreal, I had the best sleep. We had dinner in the bar & breakfast next morning both were delicious and good menu of choice. We could not fault any of it. Definitely recommend, you gotta give it a go!!
