The staff in the hotel are really lovely and the location of the hotel is stunning but we were looking for a nice cosy hotel and this was very disappointing. We stayed in the Aughrim room.Firstly, the room was freezing, the heating is on a general timer for the hotel and so you cannot regulate the heating in the rooms.... More

My wife and I have just returned from a lovely weekend at the Ballyliffin Lodge Hotel in Donegal. The hotel is quite small and modern and very comfortable and quite. The staff from the receptionist to the cleaners were extremely friendly and efficient and made our stay very relaxing. We had all our meals in the hotel bar/restaurant and cannot... More

My partner and I visited the hotel several years ago and had been wanting to come back for a while. We availed of the Lazy Sunday and Monday two night offer. This was great value, including one evening meal in the bar. We opted for an upgrade to the superior room and were allocated a massive room on the top... More

I wanted to take my wife away for our wedding anniversary to surprise her. She had never been to Ireland and a friend suggested we visit Ballyliffin. I found the hotel on Tripadvisor and it sounded perfect – and it was. I called them directly and was asked when I made my booking what the purpose was for my visit.... More

In fact, all the staff were personable, and made every effort to make... More

I was in Derry on business and my suppliers had booked a dinner at this hotel with overnight accommodation and while there I decided to extend my stay for an extra night and see some of the countryside; Ballyliffin is short drive from Derry, around 40 minutes through pretty countryside and the village itself is totally unspoilt. The hotel is... More

The rooms are clean and comfortable. I have dined in both the restaurant and bar with no cause for complaint, The hotel caters for a lot of... More

This is a beautiful hotel, perfect location for a wedding with lovely scenic views however; the management and staff working here need to open their eyes! I was at my sisters wedding in August and I was extremely disappointed in the service and food for her wedding. It is such bad manners to raise any issues at someone's wedding so... More

Spent four days in Ballyliffin during Spetember. Was booked in to Superior Room with sea view. Overall the hotel was excellent except for a couple of negatives. There is no seaview from Room 118 but to give the hotel their due, when I said it on checkout they reduced the price of my stay. We ate in the Restaurant on... More
