The location of this hotel was ideal-- right in the middle of Donegal town, near shops, pubs and restaurants. There were two things that made me not give the place a higher rating. The first is that we had an actual key for our room, which was a little weird, more of an inconvenience as our older kids like to do things on their own, but someone would need to wait for them, so they could get into the room (also no keycard meant that anyone could get on the elevator). The other thing was the noise from outside at night. The pro of being in the city center is that you have opportunities to get out and enjoy the town easily; the con is that, when you have thin windows, you get to hear everyone else have a good time late into the night. We did not sleep well here.

Selected this hotel as we wanted to stay in Donegal for the night. The hotel was centrally located. Parking was a short walk. Rooms look like they’d been somewhat recently renovated although maybe a little TLC would have improved things. Mattresses weren’t the greatest, no pictures on the walls which may seem like an odd thing to point out but it made the room a bit sterile. Room was pretty basic but served its purpose. Staff were very nice.

Great location. Great staff. Just a note as I travelled with my 80yr old mom, she had problems with stairs but as a very old building with additions I thought it was great. And right on the river.

Great hospitality and location.
Stayed at this hotel lots of times over the past few years and was happy to return. Martin went out of his way to get us a suitable family suite which was brilliant. Was great having the pool to use on a wet day. The hotel room was lovely and warm and the dining rooms were comfortable and inviting. Staff were really accommodating and dealt with any queries efficiently and to our satisfaction. The hotel is in a busy small town and close to Fintra Bay and Slieve League cliffs which are spectacular. Would highly recommend a break at the Central Hotel for its homeliness and its locality.
