The room surfaces were clean but the air quality was poor: air circulation was poor, and there was a strong mouldy smell that originated from the bathroom. The hotel felt safe and the beds were fine, and the location is great. Overall, it feels like good value for staying right on The Diamond, but Donegal is small enough that perhaps staying slightly away from the centre would be fine too.

The hotel is in a great location, but very mundane overall. We had a relatively small room for the price we paid. Small matters such as plastic cups in the bathrooms, lack of conditioner in the shower or skin moisturizer in the bathroom are notable in comparison to other hotels where we have stayed. Very limited television options, even just for news. Overall, the hotel serves a purpose and was safe, but it’s not a place I would go out of the way to use again.

he Abbey Hotel is centrally located in Donegal Town, which made it incredibly convenient for walking around, sightseeing, and enjoying local restaurants and shops. The staff were kind and helpful, even during what seemed to be a busy event happening on the property the day I arrived — things were a bit hectic, but they handled it well and remained courteous throughout.

That said, there are a couple of things future guests should be aware of: the hotel does not have air conditioning, and unfortunately, this isn't clearly stated on Expedia. My room was very warm, and with the window barely opening, there was little airflow to cool things down — especially uncomfortable for those of us who tend to run hot. This definitely affected the comfort level of my stay.

Overall, the location and staff were great, but the lack of A/C and limited ventilation in the room are important factors to consider, especially if you're traveling during warmer months.

My sister, brother in law, husband and myself stayed at the Abbey hotel while on a road trip through Ireland. Unfortunately my brother in law passed while we were in Donegal town. Eirleene and the team could not have been more supportive, understanding and accommodating. They made such a massive loss less stressful by arranging us to lengthen our stay, numerous hugs and pure kindness. We will be forever grateful to them.

Checking in and out was quick and easy. Good recommendations for food and music at check in. Breakfast was good with lots of options. Long walk to our room, lights out by our lift. Had to park nearby at public car park.

Room a bit dated but clean. Bathroom was modern and pristine. Food available but unfortunately we arrived after they had stopped serving so I can’t rate the restaurant other than it was visually appealing. Convenient to shopping since it is in the heart of the town. Parking was a challenge.

Upon entering the room immediately hit by loud humming and clanking noise. Talked to the front desk person and asked what could be done for the noise, they offered to send a handy person to check it out while we were out for dinner. After dinner came back to the front desk and they assured me that the noise was from the kitchen fan and would stop as soon as the dinner service was over which would be soon. We went up to our room where we realized there was only one cup for tea. Having had an unfriendly exchange with the front desk, my husband went down for a second cup. While we we’re getting ready for bed the toilet paper holder fell off the wall and I noticed that there was a sticky substance on my bedside table. The noise continued through the night and I was woken many times. In the light of the next day noticed many additional things about the room that were unclean: all surfaces sticky, crumbs on the chair, and the most disgusting was a used bandaid stuck to the headboard.
While checking out I informed the person at the front desk about all the issues. They told me that there were many rooms and I should have requested a room change. I explained that that option wasn’t provided the previous night when I asked about the noise and we didn’t notice most of the uncleanliness until the morning light. The front desk person continued to blame me for not getting a new room. Shocking lack of customer service.

Staff and food are great. The bedrooms themselves are barely a 2 star and im not exaggerating. The whole hotel needs a makeover ASAP.

Old but well maintained property. We got a nice room with terrace view. Heart of the city center. No issues except for the parking. Parking was tough as to be expected in city center area. Loved our stay.

This hotel was charming. There was live music and the staff were overly hospitable.

On the downside, our sink didn’t drain, the WiFi didn’t work and the room was stuffy. The rooms could use some updates. But can’t say that I wouldn’t recommend this place.
