"The hotel is excellent. The room was very comfortable and allowed me to relax. The food at breakfast and dinner was excellent.
The setting looking to the sea is superb, watching the waves roll in, just brilliant.
The only downside is the parking can be tricky, due to the number of cars."
"Our stay was excellent in every way! The room was spacious and clean, the shower was very good with excellent temperature and pressure. The food was crazy good, the fish tacos were incredibly flavourful as was all the food. The hotel location was right for us being central to some nice hikes and scenery."
"Hotel Location is great. Easy to find just off the high street in Ballybofey. There’s a small car park out front but also a massive overflow car park with cctv around the back. Free to park.
Lovely staff at the hotel. They sorted an extra night stay for us without issue and even price matched to a cheaper price from their website.
Room was ideal for us 2 adults and 2 kids. Double bed and 2 singles. There’s no aircon which is a shame and the hotel is very hot, a fan is supplied which helped however. Bathroom was ok, floor tiles a little loose but not dangerous, and toilet roll holder in a weird position behind your elbow. Shower was the only real downside as it was very low on pressure.
Breakfast was great. Hot buffet with the obvious stuff, sausage, bacon, egg, white/black pudding, mushrooms, beans, tomatoes, and sundries including cereals and pastries. Big pots of tea and coffee served to your table too.
Bars and restaurants all nice. Food there was great. Kids ate each meal as did we. No complaints with any of it and very reasonably priced.
Surrounding area is lovely - a great series of walks by the river, some lovely little cafe/bars on the high street and good mainstream shops if you need supplies (Aldi/Lidl 5 min walk)"
"The clients obviously enjoyed the birds feeding on the piers at the lake, but the staff should know not to feed them bread. Seeds and mealworms would be better. "
