"Arnold’s a Donegal gem!"

10.0

We spent 3 nights here 27Feb-01Mar. It was the perfect early spring break. The weather was kind and there was a real buzz about the town. Arnold’s as always never failed to disappoint. The welcome was warm, rooms spotless, comfortable and well heated. Lovely luxury bathroom remodel in our seaview room. We had booked for Burger night which was fabulous. Breakfast is wonderful cooked to order and served in a bright sunny room and with excellent service from the friendly local team. We’re booked to come back again for a night in April with our daughter and 2 year old grandson. Cannot wait!
