Shandon Hotel & Spa

Our dinner came in 7 minutes, clearly pre made and in a Bain-Maire , chicken was hard as a rock and dry , the table beside us was also served there dinner within minutes, wouldn’t of paid only I had a gift card- would not recommend however dessert was fresh and homemade.

Just had an Amazing time in the Beautiful Shandon Hotel & Spa, celebrating my birthday, not to mention the breathtaking views as it overlooks the picturesque views of Marble Hill Beach. Carolynne & Team really take care of their guests ensuring a pleasant stay. A real treat to nourish & rejuvenate the Body Mind & Spirit in the Spa also. Food in the restaurant was fab. Treat yourself to this amazing experience you will leave feeling reenergised, rebalanced & grounded.

The entrance into the hotel and the reception area is absolutely stunning and that’s before you turn around to take in the breathtaking views of Donegal. The staff throughout our stay were very friendly and helpful, they always were at hand to help. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. My only reservation was the heat on the room and not being able to control the temperature ourselves. The bathroom was clean and well equipped. We had breakfast included and it was lovely, the menu in beats bar was great along with the food. We thoroughly enjoyed the cocktails, they were beautiful. The leisure centre, namely the children’s pool that we got to use was a great size and the staff had toys for the children which was brilliant. A lovely touch having fresh water and plastic cups available in the leisure centre. Location wise, the hotel sits perfectly remote yet very accessible to Dunfanaghy itself. Unfortunately we did not get the opportunity to use the spa on this occasion but certainly will make that a priority when we return.
