An absolute gem!

Amazing place! Cute little place that has been remodeled to provide very comfortable and modern rooms. Everything was new and high quality, clean and comfortable, modern and well maintained - but in a cute historic building very close to all the retaurants and sights in town. We had a suite with a separate seating area with a fire place, a deck with a private hot tub (delightful way to end the day!), and a view of the river and a bit of the bay. Lots of tasty dining options in town, and convenient parking tucked behind the building.

Stunningly gorgeous! Cocktails on the balcony, a quick dip in the hot tub, and enjoyed the spacious well designed and comfortable suite! Maybe the best hotel that we’ve stayed in!

More like an apartment rental than a hotel but great nonetheless. A few issues with the bedroom AC but overall enjoyed our stay.

I’ve gone to Ireland over 30 times and This is one of my favorite of all time! The Cliffe Beauty and sophistication, comfort care beyond anything of the average… Especially in Donegal! I could not believe the cost of this place is the same as the hotel choices in the area. I stayed two days at the Abbey hotel and couldn’t stand a third. The Cliffe outdid everything and I will be back. After I tell everyone!! Thank you So so much!
