Hide AdGalgorm Spa & Golf Resort, which is the only independent hotel in Northern Ireland to make the AA grade, recently published its own full safety guidelines and hygiene commitment. The Resort is also in the process of obtaining Visit Britain’s ‘We’re Good To Go’ consumer safety standard, which is supported by Tourism Northern Ireland and the Northern Ireland Hotels Federation.
Colin Johnston, Galgorm Collection Managing Director, said: “We’re looking forward to safely reopening on July 24 with all the approvals in place to ensure the health and safety of our team and guests. Last month, Galgorm published in full its hygiene commitment and reopening policy which has been accompanied with a walk-through video advising guests of what to expect when they arrive.
“From luxury accommodation, to famous golfing greens, a world-renowned spa offering, lively traditional Irish bar and an award-winning fine dining restaurant, our guests will enjoy the same fantastic experience the Resort is known for, albeit with additional safety measures in place. The AA’s new COVID Confident assessment scheme is a fantastic way for us to achieve external verification that the measures we have adopted are best practice and reassures guests and visitors that the Resort is safe to visit.”
The COVID Confident Mark is the latest AA accreditation to be awarded to Galgorm Spa & Golf Resort, alongside its 4 Red Star Inspector’s Choice Award for the Resort’s high quality and customer service standards as well as its 3-Rosette Award for culinary excellence at the Resort’s premier restaurant, the River Room.
