Inishowen Gateway Hotel

8/10 Good
"Overall, we had a lovely stay. The food was lovely and the room was always kept clean. The only downsides were the noise levels, as we were woken several times by people talking loudly outside our room, with one night continuing until 4am. The car park was also extremely busy over the weekend, with cars blocking others in."
