The room was nice but it faced the main road and was right above the pub entrance and was very noisy, late into the night (woken up at 2:30am). A fridge would be a nice addition.

The room was clean and had all the amenities you would need but being above a pub/bar was not clearly explained. It was 02:30 when the dj stopped playing the overly loud music it was so loud that our crockery was rattling in our room. We contacted expedia and i took videos as we weren't able to contact the host. We left the next morning and booked into a differnt hotel, although we were due to stay the second night. Currently waiting for the team at expedia to make contact with the host and get back to me regarding this.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was super easy to check into, room was really clean and beautifully presented with tea/coffee in & small selection of toiletries. The reason I’m not giving 5 stars however is that I had an early flight and the music and noise from the bar downstairs or next door (both lively pubs) was on until 1am and kept me awake even with all the windows closed. Otherwise, if you’re not bothered by the noise, this would easily be a 5* review.

It was suitable for the above reasons . But, because we had a room above the pub ,which was situated on the Main Street. This led to to very rowdy behaviour which carried into the early hours of the morning ( beyond 4am.) its such a shame as I know we would never return to this establishment

Fuss-free stay in Carndonagh

No fuss, no frills accommodation, exactly what was required for our stay. Very large, comfortable beds, easy check-in and out from friendly staff. Full use of excellent gym, pool and all facilities at nearby Ballyliffin Lodge. Ample free parking on High St. Would recommend and re-visit.
