Ultra modern and spotlessly clean. Great place to stay. Don't try to pick the key up early, you'll get a firm NO!

We had the smallest room. Did not like the setup of the toilet and the shower. Was noisy and the noise from the front door we heared from every person who entered the house.

Check in was awkward, the app didn’t work we had to collect our keys from a Spa shop. The room was tiny and it seemed all the drainage/pipework from showers and toilets went though our room

Property is located directly in the city square (diamond). It’s close to several pubs and shops where we found everyone very friendly and helpful. Check in was easy with keyless entry. Everything was clean and beds were comfortable. There was no lift, which we were aware of but something to consider for those with mobility limitations. Highly recommend.

We loved the location of Donegal House and check in was very smooth. There is no elevator so need to be able to manage stairs which was not an issue for our group of five adults. Will recommend to our friends when visiting Ireland.

This is a really neat place to stay. Right on the diamond but also very quiet. There is a car park around the corner that is cheap and the check in process works fine too. It is an easy walk to anything you would need. I will definitely come back again.

Great place! The communication with the property staff was outstanding and every question was answered promptly. The room was very nice, very clean, and everything worked. Much nicer than any other place we've stayed in this price range. There is parking just around the corner in 'No. 1 Car Park' near the ALDI grocery store.

Quiet and comfortable

Such a nice, quiet spot right in the heart of the Donegal Diamond. As soon as you walk in and the front door closes, its immediately silent even if its lively outside. The entire place appears to be recently renovated, it is immaculate. The air freshener in the stairwell smells lovely as well. Our room was great, we had a nice sitting area, mini fridge for our breakfast or leftovers, and plenty of room for the bed and walk around space even with our luggage open. The shower is a little different in that there is no curtain and the entire room is your shower, but it was easy to not splash overly and make a mess, plus plenty of hot water. The key pick up was easy at the Spar across the street, but they are strict about the check in time and there are no official places to leave your bags ahead of time in town. I highly recommend this property as it is well equipped, comfortable and quiet. Great place to relax and since right in the center of town you have piles of restaurants within 5 minutes or less. Plus the shopping is in the Diamond as well.

Little gem in the centre of town.

A lovely little gem in the centre of town. No frills, spotlessly clean. Doesn’t have lift if you have mobility issues. When I say no frills I mean no fussy reception or checkin area. But tea and coffee in rooms, shower gels etc in the room. Has heating and air-con in the rooms.
