We loved this stay in Donegal! The room was clean, warm, and inviting and the bed comfortable. A perfect location to enjoy the town! The only snafu was getting our key as our digital key did not work. The sign on the door directs you to a name, but doesn't specify that it's a convenience store, so I was literally looking around wondering if it was a person or place I was looking for!

Overall, I loved the convenience of the location. It was easy to find and quiet once I was in my room. I did encounter a hiccup where my key wouldn’t open the main door so I had to go retrieve a new key. I stayed there two nights and the second night the heat didn’t work in the room, which made it uncomfortably cold.

After traveling in Ireland for over 2 months, this is one of my top 3 favorite places. The location, the lovely room, the city, the comfort of the bed and mattress, and the WiFi works great. I would easily recommend this hotel for Donegal and for Ireland overall.

Great facility. Clean, quality bed and bedding. Everything needed for a short stay is provided for. Centrally located with easy access to everything. I parked outside the front door, cheaper parking than other places I have stayed. My only complaint is the “ light pollution “ in the room at night. It’s a bit like control deck of starship Enterprise. The owners should spend some time in the rooms in darkness to assess and find a solution.

We didn't like the idea of the wetbath. The check online app didnt not work, which led us to the Spar convenience store for the room keys.

Room was quiet, clean, comfortable, pleasant and well-equipped. The unattended checkin via key app was fantastic despite my initial reservations about how that would work out. There were only two drawbacks. There were several flights of stairs to reach the room, which was in the attic. (This is something I would expect in an authentic inn like this one.) And I'm not yet a convert to the "entire bathroom as shower stall" design. I showered when I arrived there in the late afternoon, and by the morning the bathroom floor still had numerous little puddles on it, forcing me to dry it with my towel before I could use the toilet, sink and mirror. Were it my choice I would add a simple, easily washable shower curtain to the design. Puddles and stairs aside, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Donegal House, wished I'd had another night or two there and intend to book it again in the future.

We had a top floor room which was quite nice although small. Not a fan of the shower/toilet as many others have said as you can’t step I. With sock feet or you’ll get wet. Other than that, it was just fine for being right in the center of the action

Parking was on the street. Check in was very difficult, with no registration desk. The other guest had a shouting match during the night. The kindest person was the lady we spoke to during our phone registration. The facility itself was acceptable., however Expedia should vet these places, especially in the areas noted.

Hotel room in a house

Easy to find, right in the middle of town. Managed to park outside for free (until 9 am). Key app didn't work but no problem picking up from nearby shop. Room was excellent, good size, everything provided, very clean. We slept well, no noise from residents or street. Quite a lot of light coming in so eye mask was helpful. Great cafes nearby for breakfast.
