3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2012 NEW

The staff are very attentive and friendly...congratulations to them. The food is adequate ..no more. Fresh green vegetables seem to be a rarity. We ate mainly off the bar menu...not the best value in our view. Understanding of Gluten free diets for Coeliacs seemed patchy. No shortage of potatoes!, More

We didn't stay there but had a great pub meal in the bar area of the hotel. Nicely furnished, great food and friendly staff. Our young children were the centre of attention and we felt welcome. More

We are here for the week and so far everything has been grand. The Arnold brothers are always here to cheer us and make sure we want for nothing. Even a daylong spring gale is no match for a pint in a snug chair by the fire. And today the sun is back and we will be off on horse... More

From the minute we walked into the door, we loved this hotel. Fire going, comfortable furniture, and the best views in Dunfanaghy, looking directly at the Bay across the street. The staff and owners were as friendly and helpful as can be, and Laura at the front desk and Margaret in the restaurant were darling and fun and full of... More

Just finished a long weekend break ( April 2012) at this wonderful hotel in a great part of Donegal. Horse riding, escorted walks with Brendan Rohan, the marvelous local guide who knows everything about anything you may want to know, great character. We had room no. 3, a suite sized room overlooking the bay and well located just upstairs in... More

Me and my husband had a fantastic weekend break. We went horse riding on the Saturday and were ably escorted by Niamh onto the beach, where we had some exhilirating canters/gallops. The staff at the hotel were extremely helpful and the food was superb! The Guinness also tasted great. We will definitely come back again and will bring our son... More

A fab Easter break in Arnold's. This a lovely wee hotel with genuinely friendly staff. My wife and I enjoyed the food and the relaxing lounge area just off the main bar where we could chill out. I have to reiterate that all of the staff were super helpful and uber friendly everywhere in the hotel. My wife and I... More

Thank you to all the team at Arnolds Hotel for a fantastic Easter weekend. Whilst the weather wasn't entirely good to us, the hotel certainly was. We enjoyed coffee and newspapers in front of the blazing fire, traditional irish sessional music in the bar with pints of Guiness, breakfasts overlooking the beach and, in the evening, super meals made from...

We traveled to Dunfanaghy for a Friday night stay in early March. We were going on a walk out on Horn Head and looking for a good place to stay in the village so we could enjoy the evening afterwards. Options are more limited in this part of the world since the quirky (but wonderful) Carriage Hostel closed down as... More
