Liked: Staff & service
Staff was friendly. Room had a very musty smell. I was disappointed also in the "beach view" that we had. This hotel does not offer laundry as displayed in Expedia 's description, which was needed and part of the reason I booked this hotel. I didn't check the hotels website before booking, which I should have done, as their website does not note laundry, so that part was inaccurate per Expedia only and should not be held against the hotel. Hotel is technically fine, but I wouldn't recommend and wouldn't stay there again

A beautiful hotel in beautiful surroundings. Although we toured during the day, we enjoyed our evenings and breakfasts. A good spot to base for some explorations of the west side of Donegal.

Short Break

Our two night stay was very enjoyable overall apart from initial room having a joining door to room next door. When we explained that we didn’t like that, we were given a much nicer room without an adjoining door - it would have been better if this had been sorted at booking.

Bathroom Odor

The staff was kind and the service was great, however, the bathroom had a very strong odor of mold/mildew. We changed rooms and the second room (still second floor) smelled the same - to a point where we kept the door shut and used it when/as needed. We travel frequently and have never experienced such a horrible odor. Would not return/recommend as a result.

The staff was very, very good. We had a late check-in and the receptionist called us while still in transit and asked if we wanted the Dining Room to stay open. At our early AM check-out, it was before breakfast was open. They opened early for us for a continental breakfast and then served eggs, sausages, etc. In this era, INCREDIBLE service. We highly recommend the Waterfront!!!
