Pettigo Lough Achallen Hotels

"Nice stay"

"The clients obviously enjoyed the birds feeding on the piers at the lake, but the staff should know not to feed them bread. Seeds and mealworms would be better. "

"I was extremely disappointed with this hotel. While it is correctly located in the heart of Donegal Town, very little else matched the description. It is advertised as an “award-winning” guesthouse, which was difficult to understand given the overall experience. The rooms were neither bright nor airy, but small, tired, and carried a strong smell of stale grease and dirt. The walls were so thin that we could clearly hear neighbouring guests talking, snoring, and using the bathroom. The staff were disinterested and rude, which only added to the poor experience. Breakfast was also misleadingly described, what was presented as a full Irish or continental option amounted to little more than greasy food or a basic bowl of cereal. The property also advertises free limited on-site parking however, this was only suitable for motorcycles, so it was effectively unavailable. Overall, the hotel did not match its advertised standards. The only redeeming feature was the location and the friendliness of the wider Donegal community."

"Excellent hotel food delicious staff amazing rooms to perfection!!!"

"We had a lovely stay! Would love to come back again. 10/10 "

"We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful and well maintained property for our trip. Close to town and the shops but with all the charm and solitude of the countryside. Julie was a gracious host, very quick to respond prior to our arrival. No need to reach out during our trip as the book in the house details everything you need to know. A lovely gathering space for larger groups! "

"Lovely breakfast and wonderfully happy and friendly staff, Effie is amazing. She gave ideas of where to eat and sightsee. Our flights were cancelled the night before so our drive in was hurried and we appreciated getting our room early. Definitely would stay here again! "

"So noisy at night and when we rang reception to complain we were told it's in the small print that rooms be noisy."

"It was all good- with micro and mini fridge would be a good place for people making base to explore the region. We got charged extra $20 for something after our stay- not sure what that was for. Only complaint really. "
