- "Keep returning" - "Breakfast was excellent together with presentation, quality, produce and flavours." - "Easy parking and quiet sophistication" - "A very handsome building with a stately air about it. My wife and I stayed for a weekend and truly enjoyed it. Thoroughly recommended." - "The staff make the hotel.. exceptionally warm welcome, so professional, so friendly and some brilliant personal touches. Can’t praise them enough. The room was clean, bed was comfortable. Hotel is in easy reach for Belfast and to tour the Co.Down area. There’s a good restaurant onsite, I’ll put this comment here as it’s not a dislike but certainly need to look into offering Lactose free products rather than just plant based. And maybe have a supplier for non pork bacon and sausages to enhance breakfast."

No elevators within the hotel. We have only stairs so please note when making a booking. The Nines is an iconic City Center hotel located at 10-12 Seacliff Road in Bangor. A full refurbishment of the ground floor has taken place in 2023 resulting in a brand new modern and trendy bar area with an intimate adjoining restaurant. Take in the fresh sea breeze on our terrace, dine in our small plates-centric restaurant & retreat to the bar for our signature cocktails & views of sun down. Enjoy coastal walks, visit The Copeland distillery or see a comedy show or musician in our bar or at one of our sister venues The Grand Social or Wolsey’s Bangor. This Era of development for The Nines will see batches of our existing hotel rooms at a time undergo significant refurbishment and all other rooms will remain open throughout this development. These seaside hideouts will have a contemporary but highly luxurious feel allowing for the perfect getaway & visits on special occasions. Our philosophy for the future is simple, to maintain the spirit of this historic local building, it’s location & people.
