      We stayed here for 1 night during a road trip of Ireland.
      Room was spotlessly clean, cosy with really comfy beds.
      Hotel has a really nice bar / restaurant with a nice menu with something for most tastes.
      Food was really good and presented well. Friendly staff made us feel welcomed and valued.

      Room tip: Free parking. Hotel is about 1 mile from the centre of Buncrana.

      We got a fantastic welcome at The Harbour Inn, the staff are to a person friendly and extremely happy to pass on their local knowledge. The hotel is clean, comfortable and perfectly located for touring this wonderful Donegal peninsula. The food in The Harbour Bar is excellent, with live music on Saturdays, and prices that won't break the bank. Highly recommended.
