Dunluce Lodge hotel review: ‘I sense hallmark Irish hospitality in the making’

Dunluce Lodge is the island’s freshest five-star, an all-suite stay with a small spa (and talk of a Michelin star) overlooking Royal Portrush. But it’s still bedding in

Northern Ireland’s newest five-star teed off with a ringing endorsement from Rory McIlroy, who posted recently about the “world-class hospitality” he enjoyed at Dunluce Lodge, Co Antrim.

McIlroy stayed during The 153rd Open at Portrush – in this new, all-suite hotel peering over the fourth fairway at Royal Portrush. It’s the kind of shout-out Dunluce’s investors surely dreamed about – and not just due to his four million Instagram followers.
