The room and amenities are very average, but comfortable. Tiles and caulk in the bathroom need repair. Dinner at the restaurant was very good and the restaurant staff there were also very good. Would be nice to have options for breakfast at an early time.

I go to Ballyliffin to play the great nearby 36 hole golf course. I’m sure there are other nature-oriented options (e.g. hiking around Malin Head and other beautiful areas). This hotel is a comfortable and convenient base for my purposes. The fitness center is a welcome amenity onsite. The staff is friendly and efficient.
