We've just come back from a week in The Abbey Hotel in Donegal, Ireland. What a lovely clean hotel. The rooms were huge and we had a double bed and 2 singles in ours even though there was only 2 of us. The rest of the coach party also had big rooms. The only downside was if you have a... More

When we arrived in Donegal Town we saw the signs for the annual Elvis celebration. Since my wife grew up in Memphis and I lived there for a time, we had to go! What a blast - The Abbey seems to be the party spot for the county and there were all kinds of things going on. In spite of... More

We stayed at The Abbey hotel for three nights in June and were very pleased with our stay! The rooms were a bit outdated, but they were clean and had everything that we needed in a "home base" to explore Co Donegal. We were in the back of the hotel on the third floor, and had no issues with noise.... More

I stayed here for a wedding in July. The wedding meal was incredible and executed fantastically given a large wedding. The coffee on arrival was like dishwater, after the meal the same. And the next morning the coffee was undrinkable. They need to learn to make proper coffee in this day and age. Got a decent coffee on my way... More

With it's formiddable faccade, I had expected great things of my stay in the Abbey Hotel. However, the inside is a bit of a let down. It could do with some updating. We stayed in a room of the 2nd floor which had the unfortunate luck to be facing on to the street. Shut the windows to keep out the... More

We stayed for one night and had a really good time. The staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms were comfortable if a little dated. We had dinner in the 'sister' hotel next door as we had not booked early enough to eat in The Abbey but we had a good meal nevertheless. We returned to the Abbey for... More
