We had such a lovely time at The Shandon Hotel. We were upgraded to a seaview room on arrival, which was such a thoughtful surprise — and honestly, the view was incredible. Looking out over the water every morning was the perfect way to start the day. The staff were all so welcoming and friendly, really went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. You can tell they genuinely care about guests having a good experience. The food was fantastic too — fresh, tasty, and plenty of choice whether you’re after something casual or a bit more special. Can’t recommend The Shandon enough for a relaxing break in a beautiful part of Donegal. Thanks again to the whole team — we’ll definitely be back!

People make places and that is very true of the great staff here. Brilliant reception team, always keen to help in anyway and advise on the area. And Nial, so comical yet professional, a great welcome from him to start the day at the fantastic breakfast spread. Marble Hill is like your own private beach.The Spa is so relaxing with great offers; thank you to Evelyn for being so welcoming and organising extras, and Mags and Eileen for the fantastic facials with latest Red light therapy! The rooms are spacious and comfy with great walk in shower option for my Mum. Planning to return with friends group next time! A special corner of Donegal!

The Shandon Hotel is amazing we were a group of ten celebrating a 50th birthday. The staff couldn't do enough for us. We had to cojoing rooms,they had little treats in each room and a lovely card for the birthday girl. We enjoyed the thermal suite and our treatments were the best ever. We had dinner included in our package which was amazing, the best food ever I tasted. The waitress was also super friendly. The rooms are spotless with the most breathtaking views ever. I have stayed at the Shandon Hotel twice now and I'm already looking into booking my next visit. Look forward to my next visit Regards Lorraine Gallagher

Although the hotel was fully booked, with lots of families, our room was in a quiet location. It was a lovely big bedroom with an amazing view. It was clean and well presented. The trip was a 2 night stay for a birthday present for my partner. The hotel staff were lovely and placed a birthday card and some lovely sweet treats in the bedroom for our arrival. Nice touch. The bar and resturant staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and we certainly didn’t leave feeling hungry. We used, the pool, jacuzzi and sauna, which we had to ourselves mid afternoon. Great weekend break, and one to which we will most definitely return.

The "Date night" package great - we had a room with a beautiful view - food was delicious - leisure centre lovely and clean. The Spa & outdoor hot-tub a delightful option at 30 euros a head. Would highly recommend. Lovely beach walking distance from hotel.

From start to finish we received a 5* service and stay at the shandon hotel. We booked the date night package and I made the mistake of picking the wrong date, a quick call to the hotel and this was rectified for me with no fuss. Upon arrival we were greeted by welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable staff. Our room was upgraded and we received a later checkout time with no fee. When we got to the room we were very happy, the rooms are clean, bright and comfortable with stunning views and very comfortable robes. The little tea/coffee caddy is a nice touch and the vending machine in the hallway makes sure that residents have a vast selection to meet their needs. We enjoyed dinner in Marbles restaurant and my god I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a dinner that would top this experience, from start to finish everything was delicious. Staff were very friendly, service is not rushed nor is it slow, the times between courses were just perfect and the standard of food were second to none. Staff were on hand at all times to provide a quality service. We enjoyed drinks and cocktails in the bar afterwards and there was a two man band playing, staff in the bar were friendly and the atmosphere was great. Breakfast the following morning offered a great selection, everything was cooked nicely and definitely fresh. We were impressed from start to finish with our stay and will definitely return to try out the spa and leisure facilities. Thank you to the wonderful Staff at the Shandon hotel.

Excellent food, service, and views of rugged Donegal, the Shandon never fails. We have stayed here a couple of times and with friendly staff and attention to details, this makes staying here an experience that a lot of other hotels could learn from - we have booked again later on in the year

Facilities, room and food are excellent. The area is particularly scenic, restful and peaceful. Staff are friendly and helpful. Have given a great recommendation to friends to visit. Great for a short break or even longer. Have no hesitation in returning.
