From the outset my wife and I were impressed with these apartments which we booked for a short break celebrating our anniversary. As the name suggests the building was a bank, and its location is ideal and central to everything in Portrush. The building has been elegantly renovated to an extremely high standard. They have managed to create a space which retains many original stylish features, yet you are in no doubt whatsoever that you are in a very modern, very well equipped and very tech rich building controlling access, heating etc. Our apartment was very tastefully decorated, the furniture was all of a high quality as was the kitchenette, utensils etc. It was the same for the bedroom which had an en-suite, and another ‘main’ bathroom, all of which were meticulously clean. All communication was carried out online, and I downloaded an app allowing me to use my mobile phone as a key to the main door and our apartment, rather than using the numerical code provided. Two things I will just mention not as negatives, merely for information (both are mentioned on their website) 1. Accessibility: To gain access via the main door there are 4-5 fairly steep steps, and if your apartment is anywhere other than the ‘Church Suite’ on the ground floor, then there will be staircases to climb. If you happen to be on the top floor, where we were, then it’s 2.5 staircases, so it’s not really suitable for those with mobility issues. *Note - there is no lift. 2. Parking: Parking is on street, and can be limited during busy times. If you have a lot of luggage, you could end up having to park a distance from the building, but later on in the evening you could move closer which is what we did. To summarise, these apartments are excellent, I would describe them as luxury apartments, in a great location, and we would have no hesitation in re-booking with them should we decide to return to Portrush.
