Lovely hotel, modern bedrooms & comfy beds. Great food served in the hotel bar with entertainment on the Saturday evening. Great location for a night out, short walking distance from bars & other restaurants.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The bed was extremely comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. Parking was convenient and easy, which made our arrival stress-free. It’s a family-owned property, and you can really feel the warm, personal touch in the service — everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was fresh and lovely Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy and pleasant stay!

We were to stay here for 3 nights however we had a family emergency on the 3rd day & had to return home. Jennifer very kindly refunded the 1 night we couldn't stay. Thank you to Jennifer. We found some of the rooms to be very gloomy so eventually we were given a lovely bright room with 3 windows so we were happy to be in the room. Everything was spotless - comfy bed - great shower - tea & coffee making facilities. Breakfast was adequate not a huge selection but enough. We had dinner there one evening with family & the food was diverse & very tasty. Staff are very pleasant & helpful. Hotel is just a few minutes walk from Buncrana high St so very convenient. Would stay here again ⭐️

Hi, just a couple of things. At check-in I was asked to pay the full bill even though I had already prepaid with yourselves. Wasn't able to access Internet to prove i had already paid, so for the duration of our stay we had to use our data as i have said the hotels was non existent. I enquired as to why and was told they would check it out but never got back to me. Generally the hotel was clean but tired and dated. We had a meal in the restaurant on the Saturday night. The person showed us to our seats with food menu's then disappeared never to be seen again. Usually you,re asked would you like to order a drink while you decide what you want to eat. However 10 minutes later we did manage to order wine from a different member of staff. Not a happy experience at all i,m afraid to say.

me and my partner has planned a visit to the hotel for the night and ended up in a car crash on the way there ( both pretty injured) after ringing the hotel to explain what has happened they didn’t seem to care not even an offer to give money back or change the night of stay
