Although we were there for just one night, we enjoyed our stay. We didn’t have breakfast, and decided to dine in Buncrana in the evening, as we felt the hotel bar/restaurant was noisy ( maybe we hit it on a bad night) I would also like to mention Sinead on reception, a great asset to the hotel. She organised a taxi for us, and was very guest orientated.

perfect stay and meal in Buncrana

Our second stay at Harbour Inn was better than our first! From Lynn's welcome at check-in/lovely breakfast service to a quiet and relaxing stay with great drinks at the bar and that outstanding seafood chowder, service is exceptional from the nicest people you could ever meet. The charm and professionalism make every stay a restorative holiday and show owner Kathleen's attention to the details of a lovely stay for every guest. We hated to depart!

From start to finish our stay was so enjoyable, comfortable. The staff were all so lovely. Extremely helpful without being intrusive. We were amazed at the large comfortable room. Walk in wardrobe with plenty of hangers. Bathroom was very spacious and spotless. We had dinner in the restaurant at night and it was amazing 👏 fresh tasty and plenty of it. Great atmosphere in the dining room/bar. We had a great night. Breakfast the next morning was 10* absolutely delicious and wonderful choice. I believe the pancakes wre amazing. I would highly recommend The Harbour Inn and I can't wait for my next stay there
