Fodor's Expert Review Causeway Hotel

Owned by the U.K.'s National Trust and flaunting a stunning location overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this 1840s hotel is less than a half mile from the celebrated Giant's Causeway. Older rooms have been fully refurbished and freshened with a calming shade of duck-egg blue. The main restaurant has bright furnishings and serves food noon–3:30 and 5–8:30. Warming dishes on a cold day may include chowder, sirloin steak, a selection of fish, or goat cheese penne pasta.
