- John (7/5): A good hotel with helpful staff let down slightly by below average bar food and some tired areas. - A good hotel with good facilities. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was OK but not up to same standards as most other places we stayed in. Breakfast better than the Bar meal we had the previous evening.
- Claire (8/5): - The staff. Reception furniture
- Noelle (10/5): -
- Michael (10/5): -
- Pravin (5/5): Very Average - Staff at the reception provided quick services for phone call or in person requests. Bed was comfy but not so clean. Hotel looked great from outside. Breakfast was bad, food overcooked or used frozen food to reheat and serve them. Lot of expired products and had to complain the staff multiple times to change them. Room was unclean even after room service. Lots of dust and even found insects in the bed. No water bottles/water provided in the rooms. I had to request for toiletries as well.
- Mary Jo (6/5): - The beds were uncomfortable.
- Martina (10/5): - Despite our late arrival after 11pm, the Staff were so welcoming and friendly. They are so aware of special dietary requirements that it put my mind at ease. Would highly recommend.
- Claire (10/5): -
- Austin (10/5): Great hotel - Great location, good atmosphere and beautiful restaurant for breakfast and very friendly staff.
- Matthijs (10/5): - Great staff, beds and breakfast. Location near Letterkenny and Derry near the major road (excellent isolation, as we didn't hear anything). It was a great 5 night stay! Nothing
- Val (10/5): A short hop to Derry and a gateway to Donegal with Inch Island nearby where you can swim. - Delicious supper night before in the bar at surprisingly low price for Ireland. Followed by delicious breakfast the next morning in beautiful stone (old church) section of hotel with a Celtic exhibition on top floor. The staff are delightfully friendly. And finally, despite a wedding on the night we stayed, there wasn't a sound to be heard in my room. I chose the hotel based on reviews and they didn't lie. Will be returning at end of summer with two sisters when one visits from Canada. What's not to like?

- lovell (8/5): - Bed was comfortable, and room was spacious and clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Disappointed that the coffee in the rooms and at breakfast was not nice.

- Jackie (10/5): One of the nicest hotels I've stayed in and great value for money. - Everything about this hotel was exceptional, from management to ground staff. Clearly everyone enjoys working there. The food was excellent, the bar was run with panache and the staff was off the highest level. The location surrounded with culture. The weather could have been better 😆

- Denise (8/5): Comfortable and cozy - Ideal location for a visit to Wild Ireland. We visited Malin Head and drove around the coast and viewed the beaches. Ideal for a visit to Derry only 7km away.

- Marguerite (6/5): Friendly welcome, comfortable room. - Only stayed for one night for an early morning meeting. Nice hotel with a large pleasant lobby. Lovely friendly reception staff. Lots of parking, Big, clean, comfortable room. Rituals shower gel always makes me smile. Breakfast was not good. Lots of variety of cereals, fruit and juice. Some bread and pastries. The cooked breakfast was not nice. It seemed as if the food had been cooked a long time previously and was very rubbery. I was down within the first 20 minutes for breakfast so I assumed the food would be freshly cooked.
- Daniel (10/5): -
- mcginley (3/5): Please be careful which room you book. an OK hotel if you have the correct room away from the partie - breakfast was fine. the staff were friendly and helpful. really all very pleasant apart from my main requirement, which was to get some sleep which was a total failure due to noisy residents and guests til nearly 3 am as stated below I was allocated room 114. It was two doors down the corridor from the entry to the " conference room " where a wedding reception was being held. There was constant loud disturbances from the corridor from partygoers. Didn't get to sleep until after 2-30am. The next morning I was shattered. Reception asked me when checking out about my experience. I advised her of the lack of sleep due to multiple disturbances. She was polite and told me she would contact her manager the next day as this was on a Sunday and he/she wasn't available and would ask them to call me on the following day. I have had no word yet. The hotel is ok but my experience was really poor
- Aoife (10/5): - It was so festive
- Coughlan (10/5): -
- Karina (10/5): Det var helt perfekt - Personalet var så søde og indbydende. Beliggenheden var perfekt i forhold til min rute og det var nemt at finde
- John (10/5): - Location
- Peter (10/5): Excellent friendly staff and helpful. - From the greeting to our leaving the staff were very helpful and friendly. Orange squash at breakfast not orange juice everything else was very nice
