"A family run hotel which truly excels."

10.0

Arnold’s Hotel has been established for over 100 years. I live in the same village, Dunfanaghy, and decided to ask them to organise an event for me, a milestone birthday with 23 guests. We had aperitivo in the form of Donegal oysters, canapés and wonderful Prosecco. The dinner followed with a ‘bespoke’ three course menu with meat, fish and vegetarian choices. It was faultless and just extraordinarily good. We had wonderful wines and great service and the Glenveagh room to ourselves. Thank you Aisling and your team, you excelled yourselves. It could not have been better!!

"Great experience"

10.0

We had a great 4 night stay with a group of 11 friends and the staff were very friendly and helpful during our stay. The food was excellent, the breakfast was all you could ask for and the evening meals were varied and beautifully prepared and presented. My wife and I would highly recommend Arnolds hotel as a great base to explore north Donegal.
