We stayed 21/4/24 in room 25. The lass on reception was just wonderful, warm, welcoming and helpful. The night porter later in the evening was also really lovely. The room was immaculate, beautifully decorated, roomy and very comfortable. Breakfast wasn’t the traditional pile it high buffet but was exceptionally tasty and cooked with great care. Fabulous stay and a highlight of our trip especially as it’s only a few minutes walk into the town where we found a pub packed with locals and traditional Irish music being played. Brilliant Irish hospitality at its best!

I stayed in the Gateway Lodge before the staff are so friendly and helpful, the food is lovely and the rooms are very nice I highly recomend for a midweek or weekend break, its very close to the town centre were lots to do and enjoy. But I really enjoyed my stay in the Gateway Lodge thank you to all the staff.

We really liked this hotel in every respect. It's a short walk into Donegal from the hotel. There's ample on-site parking (always a plus in Europe). The room was very spacious, immaculately clean, and comfortable. The room was a rather contemporary design and the rate was very reasonable in comparison to other Irish hotels we stayed at. Finally, the attached restaurant served the best breakfast we ate in Ireland.

Stayed here on a Sunday night while traveling through. The room was large and warm with an excellent shower. Also reasonably priced. Layla (sp?) at the front desk was charming and helpful upon my arrival. She's a definite asset to the Gateway.

The accommodation was great, everything was very clean, and modern furnishings done to a high standard. Easy checks in and central to the town as well. Breakfast was 💯 🤌 stay for the breakfast! They also made adjustments for mine which was GF.

The main reason for my lower rating is that the sheets were dirty (dirt and hair in them), and when we called down to the night porter he didn't offer to change them and wasn't very apologetic. He did provide clean sheets and we changed them ourselves. In the morning the staff was lovely though, and otherwise a clean room.
