Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Location is spot on..room was clean and loved it had full length mirror..
The blind in the room didn't work and as we were on the 2nd floor the light going up the stairs wasn't working either.
Location
The room was comfortable & cosy, close to everything (walking distance) in Donegal town, staff were friendly & very accommodating when needed. I loved Donegal Town, the people were so friendly as I was travelling solo! ☘️
The noise from the street was a bit loud ( because I had to leave the window open because it was a very hot summers night & there was no air con/fan in the room) they may need to invest in some pedestal fans for the rooms during the summer months, other than that I enjoyed my stay at O'Donnell's of Donegal.
I would have thought the parking would have been free with the cost of the room..as being from the US I had no coins.
L’emplacement
Fenêtre cassée, porte qui grince un manque d’entretien. Les informations pour trouver la location était insuffisante
Everything. Nothing I could complain about at all. A little diamond on the diamond. The room was spacious, well presented, comfy, cosy bed. Great view of the diamond.....FAB!
N/A
The location was fantastic, staff were helpful and the room was clean with plenty of tea and coffee. Cheap and cheerful!
I didn't like sharing a bathroom or being on the 2nd floor. I have mobility issues and struggled to get up to the top floor. There was no TV, which would have been handy to have your 'own' noise.
Zentrale Lage direkt im Zentrum von Donegal. Leistungen und Zimmer entsprachen der Beschreibung. Wir waren auf der Durchreise, da war die Nähe zu den Bushaltestellen und den Gaststätten sehr gut.
Mit den Betreibern hatten wir ausschließlich per SMS kommuniziert. Etwas schade, aber das hatte zumindest problemlos geklappt.
Posizione ottima, in centro, con parcheggio a pagamento (2 euro). Camera pulita e spaziosa.
Un po' difficile da trovare... Ci è stato dato l'eir code, quindi siamo arrivati nel punto esatto, ma per capire come funzionava abbiamo dovuto chiedere al pub. Praticamente accanto al pub c'è una stradina, alla cui fine c'è questo famoso parcheggio. Posata la macchina, a metà della stradina sul muro c'è una teca con i lock. La porta di ingresso sta sempre nella stradina di fronte alla teca.
La localisation en plein centre ville
Un peu bruyant mais cela est dû au logement en plein centre ville
Lovely accomadation. Central and convenient location
Room was really nice ,clean and comfortable
Walls were very thin The people next door kept us awake until 3am just by talking ,which wasn't their fault to be honest When booking it was not made clear we would be sharing a bathroom with the other rooms which made it a nuisance trying to have a shower the next day It was stated parking was included but didn't tell us until we got there it was €2 each time to exit the car park staff also had to pay if they parked there we were told
Muy buena ubicacion, parking comodo, surtido de cafe, azucar y te y calentador de agua en la habitacion. Cama de matrimonio muy comoda y grande
La habitacion incluia una cama de matrimonio y una individual que estaba muy incomoda el colchon se undia y la base no era firme, quizas para un niño pequeño pero para un chaval mas mayor muy incomodo para dormir.
Little mention of shared bathroom
Shared bathroom and broken window
Only location
Property was not cleaned properly I can see hairs on the floor. My baby also start coughing because of dust in that room. There was no ventilation in the room as it’s in converted attic. In Bathroom mould was there with exhaust fan fully blocked, broken mirror. I visited so many hotels and family stay rooms and as a basic this water bottles always provided but there was nothing when we checked in. They provided us one double and one single bed. Single bed frame was broken. My husband got severe back pain and have to lay down on floor. There is no reception where you can go and ask for help. Overall it’s horrible for me and our family. There is some issue in this feedback form it’s not letting me upload the pictures. But I do have pictures of that room so please message me and I will share the pictures.
The location, cleanliness and facilities were exceptional.
Nothing to dislike
Good service from staff, clean and tidy. Booked double room with additional single bed. The room wasn't overly large but more than adequate. Great location in the town.
Nit picking but some noise from other rooms, not enough to be annoyimg.
Bed were comfy, locations was fantastic
The noise from the above made for a very hard sleep, then again from 6 am in the morning. I did go up and ask them to be quiet but to no avail. On arrrival there was still rubbish lying outside our room from the previous guests and was Stil there when we were leaving.
Posizione perfetta, comoda
Struttura un po’ vecchia con bagno non all’altezza del resto
La posizione
Wi-Fi non funzionante , doccia non funzionante. Poco segnalato.
Centrally located in Donegal. Our room had a view of The Diamond and all the hustle and bustle. A good number of restaurants and pubs within walking distance. Off-street parking available.
Check-in was difficult. Apparently instructions are messaged through the Booking.com site but I was not looking for them there, so I did not see the message. Did not receive the email check-in instructions until a week after our visit. One of the bartenders in the pub contacted the owners and helped us get the keys from the lock box. Parking is in back (you drive through a really tight entryway that is hard to find). One of the employee's cars was blocking the parking lot entrance so we waited over 15 minutes for him to move his care before we could park. Be aware you need 2 euros to get out of the lot. We just happened to have it but we could have been stuck there for a while if we didn't. Room and bathroom was adequate for a one night stay. The hallway had a very funky/bad smell to it that was there the entire time we were there.
Great London and Great breakfast.
Probably needs redecorating.
За свою цену хороший номер, хорошее расположение. Достаточно чисто.
В номере был запах мокрой собаки, скорее всего от ковра. Хотя в описании написано что с животными нельзя. Хорошо что погода позволила полностью открыть окна и проветрить.
Location
Room stank like a dirty hoover
Very centrally located and clean. You could telephone "the property" and a very pleasant and helpful woman, Rita, answered. Also, it was inexpensive.
This is not a hotel. It is a B&B, except no breakfast. This misbranding made for some surprises. No elevator. I had to lug my bags up two flights of stairs. Bathroom down the hall, and shared with all the other rooms on the floor. No air conditioning. View of concrete wall, which was good because there were no curtains. Although Booking.com said the reservation could be cancelled, I could only cancel the second night. I stayed for one of the two nights, and moved to a nearby hotel, with in-room bathroom and elevators.
It was so handy to the town right in the centre and clean , communication was fantastic and staff were so friendly
Nothing it was great and car parking out the back which was perfect
Location, cleanliness, value of money,
Location, view, comfort, space, quiet
Es muy céntrico
Nos costó encontrarlo y el baño era compartido con otr@s huespedes
Stairs very steep and single bed mattress not great.
Location.
Took a little longer to find the place. Would be nice if the check-in instructions includes a few pictures.
Location, clean, good beds

Great communication throughout. Easy self-check in and perfect location! :)
Beautiful accommodation in the centre of Donegal Town. Will definitely return. Highly recommend
Central location
The irony of a sign saying "please keep the noise down between 10pm and 8am" in a room above a pub playing live music until midnight, and a cafe playing music at 6am, was something special. Three times someone tried to enter our room at night. Bathroom needs repairs. Bed was small.
Die Lage ist perfekt mitten in der Stadt
Aufgrund der zentralen Lage ist es sehr laut. Das Zimmer hat keinen Komfort. Für eine Nacht geht es schon.
The location is excellent, right in the heart of the town, rooms were spacious and very clean and great value for money.
There was nothing I didn't like
Nos tocó una habitación en la última planta con vistas a The Square. La habitación amplia y el baño completo, todo perfecto. La cama de matrimonio también muy bien, muy comoda. Las indicaciones para llegar también muy claras. Aparcamos el coche en el parking que tienen en la parte de atras, no se reserva, va por orden de llegada. Y para sacar el coche tienes que meter una moneda de 2€
El colchón de la cama auxiliar era horrible, ni para un rato.
Good location
Definitely not worth the money sorry
Central location and comfy beds. Easy self check in and safe private car park out the back.
Shared bathroom was outdated and not too clean. Car park was very tight and tricky to access from the road.
Excellent location
Nice , clean and cozy
Excellent stay, clean and super central. Staff of pub was exceptional friendly and very helpful.
Very close to everything
Cleaness could be more improved
Nice clean rooms in an ideal location
Room not turned over when we checked it. Bed was slept it, bins fulls
The location and car parking.the comfort of the beds.and spaciousness
Convenient check in via lock box. Parking available on site and the location was ideal.
Nothing, this was perfect what we needed. A bed for the night after a few beers in town.
The parking out the back
Loved the location and it was clean
Would have liked better food rather than pizza it said restaurant but it only pizza not proper food
The location and the room was amazing. Better than expected.
Very nice and clean
Alarm went off and didn’t stop all night nobody came to see what the problem was.
Camera ampia e pulita sulla piazza centrale di Donegal. Sotto ha un pub tipico irlandese che non disturba la quiete della notte. Ha poi un comodissimo parcheggio interno che costa 2 euro indipendentemente dalla durata.
Niente da segnalare!
Beautiful rooms in an Ideal location. Will definitely come back. Really reasonably priced. Had no trouble at all with communication if we needed to find out anything. There's was someone at the end of the phone. Thanks for a lovely stay.
The shared bathroom would be harder to deal with staying here as a couple but it was grand for a girls night away. Theyre may be an ensuite option available though more suited for couples.
Convenient. Clean. No complaints about anything.
Very good location with safe parking very good value
Everything was great
Location was amazing! Check in was easy
Beds were a bit hard, but good.
The location was perfect
When went into the room there wasn’t a great smell and the whole night and morning you could hear people constantly walking upstairs so we got very little sleep
The location is perfect with a lovely view of The Diamond, so close to everything. The room was huge and furniture was beautiful. Everything was exceptionally clean, the shower was perfect and the bed was so comfortable.
The first evening another guest tripped an alarm, it was a high pitched constant beep that went on for an hour before it stopped, not loud enough to be a fire alarm. The next night it happened again only this time the noise went all night and well into the morning, still going when we left at 9.30am. I tried headphones and earbuds to block out the sound but could still hear it coming from the hallway, very intrusive and disturbing and I couldn't sleep but luckily my kids did! It was definitely coming from the hallway. Also one of the reasons I booked O'Donnell's was due to pub food being advertised downstairs but they actually don't offer food in the pub and the barteneder said they wouldn't be either despite menus displayed outside and online.
Good location
More info on checking in- info on parking (location, that coin is needed to exit ( I have only used a credit card in my travels- no coins), notice that key would be in a lock box and better instructions on where to then locate exterior door to enter rooms area. I was not able to make bathroom heater work and while I received prompt responses to earlier questions I didn't want to ask owner re heat when I returned late to cold room
Very clean. Very central. We had the room with ther en-suite. Easy access with the key code. Great experience
You can hear the music below but didn’t bother us. You’re on top of a bar what can you expect.
It was value for the money. Nice clean I didn't like the shared toilet. But that was my own fault I booked in a rush
