Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Nines enjoys a prime location with easy access to the Bangor town center and overlooks the sea and harbour.

Wonderful stay, excellent service

friendly staff fresh water delicious breakfast quiet location

The staff was friendly. The night porter provided fresh water. The breakfast served was delicious and quite substantial. The building had an attractive appearance. I appreciated the quiet seafront location. I found many bars and restaurants just a short walk away.

I noticed some dust in some areas, only a small issue.

mixed feelings about this stay

constant drone sea view

My room was not what i expected. i booked a 'queen room sea view', but i got a standard double with no sea view. there was also no bath. My son was disappointed. the extractor fan in the bathroom kept running all night, a constant drone.
