Customer Reviews

Amazing

"Amazing food and service as always." June 2025

Nothing like that locally

"Hurley House is a beautiful venue with gorgeous indoor and outdoor space. Sitting outside on the terrace on a summer day felt like being on holiday. The food was incredible both in the presentation and the taste. The Japanese afternoon tea is like nothing I've ever had before, there is certainly nothing else like that locally. The staff were knowledgeable and attentive but they did not rush us at all even though they were beginning to set up for the dinner service. I would highly recommend Hurley House Hotel and we will definitely be returning." June 2025

Great job Hurley House

"Had a really nice dinner for my partner’s 27th Birthday. They had a great range of vegan food across all three courses, which is rare, especially considering how nice each dish was! We were welcomed by a couple of drinks on the house. Really nice atmosphere with live music from a talented pianist. And the servers went above and beyond, making the experience really special - so massive thank you. Overall, with the great tasting food and excellent service, I thought the price was very reasonable - got a lot for your money. And the best part was that service charge wasn’t forced on you like other restaurants. It made me much happier to tip for a job well done at the end. Great job Hurley House - we will be coming back again :)" June 2025

An experience of a lifetime

"We came for the 16 course sushi menu and it was an experience of a lifetime. The attention to detail, skill and pure craft of the chef was a pleasure to experience. The menu was elegant and offered a variety of authentic japanese dishes, many of which had ingredients freshly sourced from Japan! We cannot recommend this more highly to anyone who enjoys sushi and Japanese/asian cuisine." June 2025

Absolutely brilliant

The service was the best we have had

"We visited Hurley House for my grandmas 90th birthday treat. We had the afternoon tea and the food was delicious and well presented. The service was the best we have had, they spoilt my grandma making a big fuss of her and giving her a small gift and homemade chocolates. The hotel was absolutely stunning, it is a beautiful venue. We will definitely be visiting again." June 2025
