We recently had our wedding in Tullyglass and my goodness it did not disappoint! We had the best experience from the planning right through to the day itself. Staff couldn't have been more attentive on the day. Our guests kept telling us how much they enjoyed the food and the evening buffet. We honestly had the best time. Big shout out to Odhran who was our main point on contact during the planning. The recent renovation of the whiskey bar and reception is very tasteful whilst adding a more modern flare to the place. Would highly recommend!

Son was at a formal there with his girlfriend. Food and venue beautiful but it was made very obvious that the staff had no time for teenagers. Son tried to book a room for the night, was not given the time of day. He waited about for receptionist to acknowledge him and let him know if there were any rooms available. By the time he was told that they were not allowed to stay, he had missed the bus home.
They were told they were not allowed to wait in the hotel for a taxi, so when they stood in the car park to wait, the staff told them to get out of the car park. It was only himself and his girlfriend, so no threat or danger to anyone and not a care in the world for their safety. Happy enough to take their money for their formal but treat them like dirt once formal is over. Taxi was not available until 6am.
There was only one decent member of staff in that hotel and unfortunately I do not know their name but I would like to personally thank them because she drove them home to Belfast and had to drive back to Ballymena to her own home. She made sure that my son and her boyfriend got home safe so thank you for that. Should not hold formals in their venue if they do not like having teenagers in their hotel.

We had the Carvery on Friday night and have to say we were very impressed with the menu choices for our starters. It was very tasty and good friendly service from The Two Chefs. Main Course selection was excellent too and delicious. However their choices for their desserts was very disappointing. Desserts looked as if they had been sitting out for days and the Gateau was horrible and very dry.
The girl serving the desserts was very unfriendly and unhelpful. However we enjoyed our Starters and Main Courses but they could do without making people who are dining feel intimidating. As soon as we ordered our drinks they insisted we paid straight away and didn't come back to ask if we would like more Drinks from the Bar. They made us feel as if we were going to leave without paying.
I wouldn't go back for The Carvery during the week but I would dine in The Dining Room Area. I think they would be better having Their Carvery on Sunday's not during a week/weekend night. Staff need to improve their Customer Service Skills.

Went for the Carvery which is wildly overpriced considering the quality of food. Staff are majorly depressed and touched my 10 month old babys face multiple times, one even making a comment on what she was eating and literally wiped my child's hands! All staff wearing masks under their noses yet think it's acceptable to touch a baby. Absolutely horrified and will never be back.

This hotel is outstanding. We had our wedding in September and from start to finish the service was second to none. The staff are just fantastic and couldn't do enough for us. They all made our day amazing and we can never thank them enough The rooms are out of this world and the food is to die for. Our guests had nothing but good things to say. We honestly couldn't have asked for more.
We cant thank Tullyglass enough. We would 100% recommend to any future bride and grooms. Anyone looking for a great location, fantastic food, beautiful rooms and amazing staff this is your hotel All our love the Downey's

Although I have never stayed in this hotel, I have visited it many times for its Carvery which is simply the best in the country! I have also taken many coach parties there over the years and the food and service has always been absolutely superb, and since its recent makeover it is beautiful and the grounds for lovely too. I plan to stay in it soon and I would highly recommend this place!

Good wedding venue and lively grounds and interior. Dinner was very good no complaints. Drink was pricey especially the cocktails that were not made properly by young inexperienced staff who were very friendly but when you're paying 10 for a strawberry daiquiri, it's should be right. Management need to train the staff how to make proper cocktails. Apart from that, good night definitely.

Just stayed here on a two night B&B "safe stay" package only to be told on arrival that dinner was also included for the two nights! Had carvery both nights. No complaints. Could not praise staff highly enough. Very pleasant & helpful. Breakfast adequate for both of us. Rooms clean enough, though slightly dated. Quite a few stairs to climb so if you have trouble in this regard ask for downstairs room. Throughly enjoyed our stay. Very reasonable package & we were delighted with everything. Grounds surrounding hotel were lovely. Would definitely go back.

On arrival the staff where very friendly. Mother walked up one flight of stairs, Couldn't locate any lifts/elevator, though I never asked staff. Double Room was excellent, very clean with a massive double bed. 50 Wine and dine deal for two, carvery with a bottle of house wine. Food was delightful. Breakfast was a fry. Walked around the grounds in the morning, beautiful and very quiet. Other than that. It's grrreat!
