I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were very cosy and peaceful, providing a comfortable haven during my visit. The service, while generally friendly and helpful, felt a bit uncomfortable at times due to some strange questioning. The location was fantastic, centrally located in the charming town of Ballyshannon, making it a great base for exploring Donegal. The dining experience was overall very good, with delicious options, but it could have been livelier. The facilities were modern and well-maintained, enhancing my overall experience.
