After traveling in Ireland for over 2 months, this is one of my top 3 favorite places. The location, the lovely room, the city, the comfort of the bed and mattress, and the WiFi works great. I would easily recommend this hotel for Donegal and for Ireland overall.

Overall, I loved the convenience of the location. It was easy to find and quiet once I was in my room. I did encounter a hiccup where my key wouldn’t open the main door so I had to go retrieve a new key. I stayed there two nights and the second night the heat didn’t work in the room, which made it uncomfortably cold.

We had a top floor room which was quite nice although small. Not a fan of the shower/toilet as many others have said as you can’t step I. With sock feet or you’ll get wet. Other than that, it was just fine for being right in the center of the action

We didn't like the idea of the wetbath. The check online app didnt not work, which led us to the Spar convenience store for the room keys.

Parking was on the street. Check in was very difficult, with no registration desk. The other guest had a shouting match during the night. The kindest person was the lady we spoke to during our phone registration. The facility itself was acceptable., however Expedia should vet these places, especially in the areas noted.

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.
