Top Maghernalaght Hotel Reviews

McGettigan's Hotel Letterkenny

10/10 Excellent

"Modern hotel with everything you’d expect. Good sized clean room. Good breakfast. Accessible parking too."

Wild Atlantic Apartments Port House Letterkenny

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my 4 adult daughters stayed for 2 nights. It is a very good and clean apartment and very convenient to shopping centre and town. A couple of things we want to highlight no mirrors in either bedroom. TV in either bedroom didn't function. Not enough plug sockets in bedrooms for charging phones or for hairdryers."

Inishowen Gateway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I were there just for a quick break, just a couple of hours from home. The hotel was easily found and plenty of parking spaces including disabled. Reception staff were polite and friendly and our room was spacious and comfortable. We did not use the spa amenities as travelling about most of the day we just wanted a drink and some entertainment. We were not disappointed in that, we were room only as both of us cannot eat a big feed in the morning but you could book in for breakfast if you wanted. Could not fault this hotel."

An Grianan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Super nice, "old" feel but everything modern and in good working condition. Food was delicious! Bar staff was really friendly. Make sure to go upstairs in the restaurant for breakfast, old fun artifacts and beautiful original stained glass. Grianin of aileach is right there, don't miss it!"

Beautiful Holiday Cottage, Dunfanaghy, Donegal

The Waters Edge

10/10 Excellent
