there was a special deal on email for this hotel but i looked up the hotel site and was so impressed by its site that i rang the hotel itself and got a better deal for over 55s. the hotel receptionist clinched it for me. she was well spoken friendly and so happy to move mountains on my behalf that i felt welcomed before id even got there. Following the directions she gave me, we golden oldies, headed for donegal In the main street of ballybofey just nearly opposite mcilhinneys lovely new department store is an easily missable sand coloured building looking like a bank but in actual fact its the old villa rose hotel which now serves as the hotels very nice restaurant and bar. behind this building is the real modern villa rose hotel. so you have to drive further up the main street and turn right and right again to reach the hotel reception.We can tell you this hotel scores 10 out of 10 for so many things. the friendliness of staff is so noticable.. the hygiene and housekeeping are top class ...the food is as good as weve ever got anywhere ...the service in the restaurant is beyond reproach especially if you get aine which we did but the others are super as well. the bar is lovely and every night the entertainment is just what the doctor ordered. great hot and cold breakfasts followed by relaxing reading of our complimentary newspaper in the big big settees covered foyer. you know what. weel be back but we wish it was next week. johnd
