Larissa (breakfast) was outstanding (friendly, attentive, personable). Beds super comfy. Room spacious. Food at the restaurant (dinner): delicious. Reception staff: friendly and attentive. Parking across the street in harbor not too far. Note: if you’re booking “sea view” you’ll make use of the blackout drapes for sure as the floodlights are on all night!

We were extremely pleased with the Tara Hotel all around. This hotel was beautifully and newly renovated when we stayed and every aspect of the hotel is top notch in quality, offering a luxurious and equally cozy experience. Our room was directly facing the harbor, offering beautiful ocean views and our son loved watching the big trawlers in the harbor. Each room has a digital panel outside the room for guests to indicate a make-up request, DND and even has a doorbell. The bathroom was beautiful, and the beds were very comfortable. The restaurant was very nice and the food was tasty, albeit slightly on the expensive side. The pub downstairs is cozy and gives off an old pub feeling, but it's clearly very new. The included breakfast was great and the staff were all very pleasant. All-in-all, The Tara exceeded our expectations in nearly every way, and we would highly recommend a stay here if you're staying outside of Donegal.

No Laundry Available

Stayed here for an overnight as part of a larger trip. Hotel is under renovation so exterior had construction and interior of halls mid renovation but room was beautiful, big and very comfortable. It mentions laundry facilities but no laundry available, had to drive 5-10 minutes down the road to do laundry which wasn’t the cheapest. We ended up eating dinner at the Fleet Inn which was about 5-10 minute walk away which was very good.

Not worth the money during renovations!!

When I arrived the Hotel was under renovation and this was not added to any of the web site or on hotels.com or I would of picked a different hotel, I was in a room that had just been plaster boarded but not completed, its didn’t have a TV defo not worth £124 a night, breakfast was weird as the orange juice did not taste like orange juice, the room was freezing as the radiator was too small for the room and I had to go to reception to ask them to put the heater on. the worker didn’t stop working till 20:00 to 20:30! And the hotel did not offer me another room or compensation other then Gunnies and 1 glass Jamesons to warm. To be honest the people were nice but they should of closed the hotel completely until the refurbished was complete instead taken customer money and giving the customer a poor experience on the their first time visits i think personally they should at least discounted these room because they were not worth £124 and night! A complete disappointment to say the least and even if the hotel was completely renovated I would not considered this hotel again for the fact they still charged full price for a rubbish room which didn’t have a TV and only the bathroom was complete.
