We booked the Grand Central for our annual trip to the Rory Gallagher Festival. The welcome and service we received from the staff was brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, always service with a smile. The room was comfortable, plenty of hot water, tea and coffee and the breakfast very good, hot plates and hot food. Will definitely be back.

This hotel offers very comfortable, clean, quite spacious rooms (fantastic view over the ocean - we could even hear the waves with our window open) - beds are comfortable, excellent shower, and breakfast was very good (except they were all out of black pudding - thanks to the noisy bus load of American tourists who woke us up @ 7am!)....

We stayed at Grand Central Bundoran in October.We went for a short break, 3 couples, and none of us were impressed. OK, it was end of the season, and things were on the wind down, but it was cold and far from comfortable. The heating wasn't on in the room, the shower pressure was low, and the place was freezing.... More

Thank you for your comment, however I am surprised that It has taken nearly 6 months to mention anything to us. A member of staff is on duty at all times and could have assisted you at the time when you were here had you mentioned about the heat.
