"Prima, vooral vanwege de omgeving"

6.0

De ligging is mooi, prachtige omgeving. Vriendelijk personeel

De plakkerige tafels bij het eten. Dit kwam door de lak, maar is niet prettig. Daardoor lijken ze vies. Onze kamer was boven de pijp van de keuken, daardoor rook het niet aangenaam in onze kamer. En de douche was matig, qua waterstraal

"Great stay by the sea"

8.0

We recently spent a night in Arnold’s Hotel Dunfanaghy. We had a room overlooking the sea. We were looked after very well by Aisling and her team. Food for dinner and breakfast was excellent. Great variety. We hope to return to this hotel when we are in the area again.

Really lovely hotel right on the beach, view is beautiful and the hotel is so cozy and comfortable. The staff were fantastic from check in, to the restaurant and the bar. The food in the restaurant was unreal, highly recommend.

Nothing at all to say here, we had a great trip and would definitely stay again if we found our way back here.

"You really must stay at the Arnolds Hotel."

10.0

What a lovely hotel! The staff was so attentive. I needed a refrigerator and they set up the smallest, but most adequate refrigerator in my room that met my needs. The shortbread cookies were melt-in-your-mouth delicious! I brought some home to share with my staff. The breakfast wait-staff was kind and so accommodating. If we asked for modifications to the menu, it was always met with a 'can-do' attitude. Our room was lovely with a view overlooking the bay. We enjoyed exploring around Dunfanaghy and County Donegal. The Country Market on Saturday morning warmed my heart. It had a good selection of fresh vegetables, flowers, baked goods, and more. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. We certainly hope to return and stay at the Arnolds Hotel again.
