- Sarah (10/5): Perfectly peaceful - Staff were so nice and so helpful! Rooms were so comfortable also Nothing!
- Maxine (8/5): - Location and the personalised touches; furniture, ambience, radio playing in the room when we arrived. Breakfast was brilliant, mad even more enjoyable by the view of Rosses Point. We had a 4 poster bed but it squeaked badly, even just getting in and out of it. The sliding bathroom door had no catch on it to hold it closed so unless you knew how to close it, it would roll open.

- Sabine (9/5): Würde immer wieder dort buchen! - Herrliche Lage, außergewöhnlich individuell schön eingerichtetes Zimmer - habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt! Kostenloser Parkplatz unterhalb des Hotels, sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter/innen. Ich fand es schwierig, die Temperatur der Dusche einzustellen und leider wurde durch das Spritzwasser aus der Badewannendusche das Badezimmer zum Teil nass.
- Sean (10/5): We will definitely return to the Driftwood, as it is a perfect place to stay. - The Driftwood is a great accommodation to stay at, perfect in every way.The bedroom was lovely. We were upgraded to a sea room. Everything was excellent.

- Karin (9/5): -
- Georgia (10/5): Would stay again - Friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful room and bathroom
- Julie (9/5): Lovely boutique type room in fabulous location - Lovely breakfast and dinner and fabulous room. A small fridge would be great 👍🏻
- Lothar A. (8/5): Nettes kleines Hotel in einer sehr schönen Umgebung - Uns hat die Lage sehr gefallen. Wir hatten zwei Zimmer mit Blick, die sehr originell, liebe- und geschmackvoll gestaltet waren. Die Betten waren hervorragend, und dass es eine Badewanne im Zimmer gab, war nett.
Man konnte auf den Sesseln am Fenster sehr gut und bequem relaxen. Bei längerem Aufenthalt ein Plus, und da es neben dem Restaurant im Haus keinen Aufenthaltsraum gibt , aber auch notwendig.
Wir fühlten uns sehr wohl im Driftwood. Das Essen war übrigens sehr gut. Wir haben in beiden Zimmern Ablageflächen und Stauraum vermisst. Da es keinen Safe gab, wäre statt der Regale ein kleiner Schrank mit Türen gut gewesen.
Der Preis für die Zimmer war auch im oberen Bereich, dafür die Lage aber sehr schön.
- Antonieta Karina (7/5): - Beautiful Location. Bed was wonderful, cozy and soft. Clean! A large room with great space. Couches and kitchenette and table/chairs, sink fridge was a nice surprise. A very nice stay. Shower didn’t drain.
- Rory (7/5): -
- Grainne (10/5): - The room was warm, spacious, comfortable - everything needed to switch off and enjoy a break.
- Grainne (10/5): - Location was perfect- sea views-comfortable- relaxing- staff at dinner were so helpful and nice - would highly recommend
- Aidan (9/5): -
- Lauraemma (10/5): -
- Noah (10/5): I loved this hotel! - We loved the hotel. The staff were very friendly and conversational at the restaurant/bar. We loved our room and kept the radio station they had on for our whole stay.
- Iyamah (7/5): - The bed It doesn't smell nice
- MN (9/5): - Lovely location, quirky decor, friendly staff. Delighted with the Voya toiletries Nothing
- Adrià (9/5): Amazing place in front of the sea - Really nice place! The rooms are beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay.
- David (8/5): Great place, warm staff, good value and lovely Sligo all around. - Great location. Smart tasteful decor. Friendly staff. Good food. A little lounge or comfy seat area would have helped.
- Julie (8/5): It was nice apart from the stairs. - Lovely location and staff were very friendly.
Very clean and had most of the amenities however, the heated towel rails in the bathrooms were cold in the morning and the Netflix access was only for a limited time.
A fridge would also be good to have in the rooms.
We loved the showers and the water was nice and hot.
The worst issue we had though was trying to get all our cases up the stairs.
My parents are 84 and 85 years of age and I have a bad back, therefore this was not ideal.
We could not see anywhere on the website where it stated stairs to all bedrooms. Stairs to all rooms.
Limited access to heated towel rails to both rooms.
