Weekend away in Ballybofey.
Two night stay. Lovely room. A little noisy from children across the hall.
We had one meal in hotel which was very good. Staff were very helpful especially on the Saturday night when we had booked a local Indian only to be overbooked. We got back to the hotel and restaurant had closed, but a lovely young lad got us sandwiches and chips off his own bat.

Clean, comfortable hotel. Very pleasant stay.
Very comfortable stay, polite staff. I didn't eat dinner in the restaurant, but did have breakfast, which was ok.

Was ok
The staff were nice. Dinner was good. Our room was not worth what I paid. It was very dated and not at all sound proof. Not sure what was situated underneath but it sounded like a huge speaker was blasting music. The breakfast was not worth 15 euro each. The pastries tasted days old and the hot food was just ok.

Convenient location
A pleasant one-night stay.
The hotel is central to the town and there are lovely woodland walks beside the river Finn.
Room was adequate. There was no air conditioning and limited ventilation.
Bar was very busy. Staff were under pressure but very pleasant.
Parking was limited though we did eventually find a space.

Fish and chips was nice and good service. Room was but dated and I had to pay 15 to use spa and closed at 6 which was a little misleading as that’s why I chose to stay outside Letterkenny in first place. This needs to be clearer on websites

I only had one pint of guinness, in the bar at the front street, and it was like inky vinegar ! Also, no waiter was there for about twenty minutes. Very poor service.
