Whilst the staff were excellent and the main areas and breakfast were pleasant, the room was disappointing and not as expected based on the website photos. We were shown bright, modern and airy rooms online but we were given a dated and dark one instead. The views outside are of flat roofs with dead plants and a broken aerial. Our bathroom had an avocado green suite with very old fixtures. It was very clean but came across as dingy. We slept well and the beds were comfortable. However, I would not have booked if the online content had been completely honest. It didn't feel like a treat. Tonight we are in a different guest house along the coast in Warrenpoint, at a similar price. It is head and shoulders above the Donard with a balcony and sea view. Sorry, I am just being honest. I feel bad because the staff were lovely.
We loved the room size and staying at front of hotel was fab. Dog loved his stay too! Staff very good, very helpful & friendly. We will definitely stay again, very reasonably priced too and we got continental breakfast free of charge! Joanne 💜
Loved it. Have always wondered from a child what the inside the Donard hotel looked like....mystery solved. Made lasting memories with my son and granddaughter. Staff couldn't do enough. Shout out for Kevin
