Nice Hotel ⭐⭐⭐⭐

We stayed for one night in a family, it was spacious, clean and comfortable. We had a drink in the lounge with family members the evening we arrived. The staff were friendly and the decor was very nice. It was good value. My only gripe is that we were late for the breakfast we paid extra for when we arrived, so I asked the receptionist if she could do anything for us and we would have our lunch there. She said yes she would refund our breakfast but never did.

Staff and Management were - exemplary !

The customer service from staff and management at the Clybaun was exemplary. They could not do enough to make our stay enjoyable, and memorable. They were exceptional at addressing any concerns that we had, professionally, sympathetically, and in a timely manner. We look forward to future stays at this hotel. (Michael & Marian - Donegal)

Clybaun Hotel Stay

My stay at the clybaun was not so good. Confusion over a double booking took time to sort out firstly. Pool was also very cold and we had to leave it early. Our table booking was not ready so they put us in what seemed a make shift table beside the door of the main bar with people constantly passing us,and they was numerous tables vacant when we sat down and left. We were not offered a drinks menu,and when we asked, it wasnt exactly given with enthusiasm. Children were running up and down our corridor all night, which our 3 year old found difficult to sleep with that noise and the their parents shouting at them.
