    The hotel is a bit out of the town centre, but perfectly fine for car drivers - once you get used to the multi level one way system! Buncrana is well placed for touring North Donegal County and visiting Derry/Londonderry City nearby in N. Ireland, to where there are no travel or border restrictions. Thought the local ferries were a bit expensive for cars. The local attraction "Wild Ireland" situated near Burnfoot was well worth a visit. And a visit to Ireland's most northerly point, Malin Head, is a "must do" too. Be advised that the famous Slieve League Cliffs are over 100km from Buncrana.

    The house was ideal for a large family group.

    The house was ideal for a large family group. There were plenty of baths and showers in the house. The house has a great view. Apart form a few very minor things we were very satisfied. There is beautiful countryside, excellent beaches, and places of historical interest within easy reach of Buncrana.

    A visit to Dunree Fort is worth a visit.

    A visit to Dunree Fort is worth a visit. We didn't visit the museum but did some of the walks which were spectacular. We also ate in the little cafe on site which was very good indeed. Coffee in particular! Buncrana town is lovely, plenty of shops, bars and cafes. Its a one way drive system. We ate at Tank and Skinnys - just coffee and cake, but the food going to other tables looked delicious - we'll definitely be back.

    We were going to Buncrana festival and this property was perfect for us. It was less than a 5 minute walk to the festival site. The apartment is comfortable and very well equipped. The sofa bed in the lounge was easy to erect and comfortable for my daughter. Gary met us on arrival and went through everything with us. All communication prior to the visit was prompt and friendly. We ate in the centre of town before the gig. It is an easy 10 min walk. There was a great pub opposite the apartment also.

    This is one of the best place to stay either for getaway or vacations with nearby beach & town. Justin is very helpful from booking until check out, very responsive to all messages. The interior of the house is excellent, modern and very clean and the best part is the hot tub with nice view & can be used on any weather as it is indoor with fire and seating area to accomodate large no of ppl. I give this place 5 stars and definitely will return in future

    I have been to a few BnB in Ireland but this one was exceptional. It felt like I was staying with my own family. Evelyn and her husband are one of the friendly people I ever met, they treat the guests with love and kindness. Always there to help with whatever I needed. My room was very clean and neat. Had a delicious breakfast as well, spoiled for choices. This place is now my second home whenever I visit buncrana.

    The house was based just outside Buncrana, with plenty of restaurant options & takeaways amd a beach just down the road. There was plenty of room in the house for us, 5 adults and 2 kids. The kitchen and living space is very spacious and the outdoor area is very safe for kids. The host was very quick to reply to any messages in the lead up and during our stay. We would definitely return

    The Harbour Inn is a brilliant hotel: very friendly and attentive staff; premises really clean throughout; and the food is excellent - generous portions too. Definitely recommend booking the breakfast option, the full Irish breakfast on offer is great and the breakfast room / area is so well stocked, spacious and comfortable.

    I liked the setup of providing a PIN number and the room key available inside so no messing about with receptions! The room was spacious and very clean and more than adequate for my family as we have three small children so the single bed and sofa bed were ideal. The location was ideal right on Buncrana main street

    The property was spacious and equipped with what we needed for our stay. We were visiting the area to attend a family wedding, easy to check in. May benefit from some soft furnishings to help acoustics in the lounge and kitchen.
