Veel parkeerruimte, ook voor ons kamerraam waardoor er een bus op 5 cm stond en het raam niet open kon, dat kan onhandig zijn. Het personeel is heel aardig en het eten in de bar is prima. Het is er stil en de douches zijn geweldig. De kamer was mooi ruim. Er was veel info over de omgeving met uitleg hoe er te komen. Heel fijn!
This hotel was absolutely beautiful and full of charm. The landscaping leading up to the property was stunning and set the tone for a lovely stay. Dinner at the hotel was delicious, and the rooms were very comfortable.
We also had a great time across the street at the bar, playing pool and enjoying the friendly local atmosphere. A wonderful experience from start to finishâhighly recommend!
Ostan Loch Altan was an excellent place to rest on a looping, self-organized road trip through the hinterlands of County Donegal. The roadside inn is comfort, with spacious rooms (though the bed was on the soft side, so you felt a little like you were sinking toward the middle). Luckily, the hotel has its own pub, which serves dinner â Friday night was steak special night â and breakfast room, as the other pub across the street wasnât serving food midweek in early November.
What stood out most, though, was the simple friendliness of the Ostan Loch Altanâs staff, who were uniformly kind and cheerful.
This is going to to be two very different reviews. When I first arrived they had me in a large room that was not very clean and had very dated furniture. After checking in around 1600 I took a quick nap on the incredibly hard bed but I was soon woken up by cupboards slamming and people talking very loudly in the room underneath mine. At first I thought I just had some noisy neighbors but the more I listened the more I realized they had put me in the room right above the kitchen. I called down to the front desk and confirmed that this noise would last until at least 2200 so I requested that they move me to a different room. I was able to move to a smaller room a bit down the hall which was actually very pleasant. The bed was still way too hard for my liking but I was at least able to get a good nights rest away from the earlier din downstairs. I'm giving my ratings above based on the second room, the breakfast provided, and the very helpful staff but I would like to very strongly suggest that the first room I was in be taken out of service for guests moving forward. There is no way anyone would be able to get a restful night of sleep there and putting guests in that room without giving notice of the noise issues diminishes your reputation as an premier hotel.
Tasty Food & Friendly Helpful Staff stood out most for me during my 2 day stay at this cosy hotel.
Made very welcome on arrival even though I was late to check in and thankful the Chef was still on site as he made me fish & chips with real mushy peas. I was famished after long journey but that yummy meal made the wait so worth it.
Big 'Thank you' to all the lovely & accommodating staff that made my stay a very pleasant & comfortable one. Especially to the young lady on reception when I arrived at 9pm on 6th Sept - in all her multitasking she still managed to fit in going to kitchen to ask the chef if he could feed me, bring my case upstairs to my room so I could go straight to table, while remaining pleasant & efficient with all the asks of her in between and straight after đ
My room was cosy, clean and catered perfectly for my needs - tea & coffee facilities in the room and toiletries in bathroom. Because another reviewer mentioned it, I wasn't surprised to find the room hot. Though my bones were loving the toasty room I do prefer it cooler when sleeping so just adjusted the rad to off and opened window. Bed was comfortable and I enjoyed an undisturbed nights sleep on both days.
I stayed at this hotel because it was accessible by bus & close to the Pier where I planned to get the Ferry to Tory Island - though I took taxi next morning to ensure I didn't miss it.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this homely hotel and hope I get the opportunity to return đ.
Very nice place a bit dated but very clean and staff excellent. Shower good strong flow , bed really comfortable and room clean. Breakfast was excellent
