"Best breakfasts of our trip"

"Room was clean, plenty of space and very modern. Shower pressure was very low, temperature good. At check-in, the staff couldn’t answer the most basic questions around eating areas and timings. Ate in lobby, dirty tables and food remaining on floor. Service quite slow and some food had to be returned however manager sorted this out. We were aware that others complained about the food. Breakfast wasn’t great, slow service for tea/coffee and had to wait a while for staff to restock eggs, mushrooms, sausages. The breakfast room wasn’t full at this stage. Within the spa there was no hot water for tea/coffee. Pool water could have been warmer, overall spa area was tired. Surprised there were no hot tubs."

"My only complaint is we asked the bartender to make a simple gin martini and he said sure, and he had to go get somebody else to make it and it was absolutely terrible, I couldn’t even drink it."

"Good breakfast and facilities "

"Didn't have breakfast as we had to leave early "

"The room was fine but the air conditioning was really noisy. Breakfast was average. Im gluten intolerant and although gluten free bread was available there were no other pastries etc.. I asked a member of staff if the sausages were gluten free and she didn't know so I ended up not having them. These are small things but they matter"

"It’s a castle so very cool with lots of paintings and other Victorian stuff "

"Very helpful staff and friendly "

"Hotel Location is great. Easy to find just off the high street in Ballybofey. There’s a small car park out front but also a massive overflow car park with cctv around the back. Free to park. Lovely staff at the hotel. They sorted an extra night stay for us without issue and even price matched to a cheaper price from their website. Room was ideal for us 2 adults and 2 kids. Double bed and 2 singles. There’s no aircon which is a shame and the hotel is very hot, a fan is supplied which helped however. Bathroom was ok, floor tiles a little loose but not dangerous, and toilet roll holder in a weird position behind your elbow. Shower was the only real downside as it was very low on pressure. Breakfast was great. Hot buffet with the obvious stuff, sausage, bacon, egg, white/black pudding, mushrooms, beans, tomatoes, and sundries including cereals and pastries. Big pots of tea and coffee served to your table too. Bars and restaurants all nice. Food there was great. Kids ate each meal as did we. No complaints with any of it and very reasonably priced. Surrounding area is lovely - a great series of walks by the river, some lovely little cafe/bars on the high street and good mainstream shops if you need supplies (Aldi/Lidl 5 min walk)"
