Booked last minute for my young sons and I for Mothers Day. Receptionist on arrival was quite sharp/rude when we arrived and not friendly atall (9th March 2023), however the receptionist on the 2nd morning (10th March with dark hair) was very nice, smiling and friendly, as should of been the welcome when we first arrived form the other woman. Rooms and bathroom were clean and breakfast was just OK if I'm honest. Having stayed in a variety of hotels over the years, I feel the hotel could benefit from some staff training, particularly as a first point of contact for guests and possibly a swimming pool or games room long term for children as there is not a great deal in Killybegs to do for them, unless you drive to Letterkenny to Arena 7. Would not go out of my way to book this place again unfortunately.

This is in a cool fishing village. The large fishing vessels are right out the hotel windows. Water view. Attached restaurant. Convenience store across the street. Free street parking in the entire town. About a 30 minute drive to Slieve League. Staff very helpful.

Basic
Staff were very friendly & helpful. Breakfast was very good. Unfortunately the rooms are tired & badly in need of updating. Could feel springs in the mattress & torn curtains. The bathroom was very dated. Long time since I’ve seen a shower curtain & not the most hygienic of things. Overall clean but quite basic.

Great location opposite harbour
Great location for hotel just overlooking the harbour. Staff were helpful and pleasant especially at getting us a table at the bar for 6 and giving us attention all evening. Bedroom was too warm for us and my husband could feel the springs his side of the bed. Had a bath with shower over and lots of hot water. Parking was outside hotel or at adjacent car park (free). Limited hotels in killybegs but would stay again.
