    It was a very spacious and homely place to stay with great views and plenty of room for a big family to enjoy. It was very convenient for travelling to Rossnowlagh beach or Bundoran or further a field. It was a very quiet place to stay and very easy to get to

    On my review it shows a sad face which should most definitely not be the case because we were completely satisfied with everything during our stay at Dorrians Hotel. (Filling review without glasses isn't a good idea !!). Its also anonymous. Silly me !!. . Its Annie + Jim from Ballymena + we just want to say we couldn't be more happy . . Owners + staff are lovely + really friendly + when you are in reception + a couple arrive in who were married 40 years ago + stayed in the Hotel call in to say "Hello" it shows how special they felt 40 years ago !!. . Really lovely to wish them Happy Anniversary. . I know if it wasn't for Covid restrictions they would've been offered dinner or a drink. . We can highly recommend Dorrians Hotel to anyone looking to book. . You will not be disappointed. . Annie + Jim from Ballymena. . Stayed from 12th August- 15th August 2021 x

    Lovely varied historic old town, said to be the oldest town in Ireland. Interesting to explore both sides of the river. The history of the town can been seen in the buildings e.g. large CofI church on the hill, the now closed up lovely Presbyterian church, the convent complex being restored, the evidence of the old port, the former merchant's houses on the riverside, the derelict workhouse etc.

    Unfortunately with Covid, town life was limited for the evening. However, Ballyshannon even during Covid is warm and inviting. The restaurant Nirvana had wonderful dishes. We used Ballyshannon as home base to explore around us. So many places to see, so Ballyshannon is a great central point to many areas to pop into. Of course Patricia and Harold are what ultimately made the difference. We will be back as cant wait to share with friends. Thank you both for making our little trip even during Covid, so memorable.

    Well I am used to visiting Ballyshannon and I have relations there. But it is always a pleasurable and relaxing experience each occasion I visit. This time it was for the folk festival, and Eric Bell (former 'Thin Lizzy' guitarist, most certainly did not dissapoint when we saw him in Owen Roe's Bar. Unfortunately we only stayed one night!

    A town steeped in history and tradition.

    A town steeped in history and tradition. If you’re looking for a coffee or a pint, you have plenty of choice. The Mall Quay is worth a visit. The Chimes of St Anne’s church really set the town alive. Make this a stop and you won’t Be left disappointed.

    Both hosts were friendly genuine and helpful people, who suggested a couple of pleasant walks and places to visit. Our first time in Ballyshannon and it won't be our last. We will stay at this place again without a doubt. Be sure to go in Max's bar in town. The landlady is a diamond and the locals are really friendly. This alone is worth a trip back for.

    Staying at the Assaroe House was a pleasant experience. The owners, Patricia and Herold, gave me a very friendly welcome. We had a wonderful evening and a lively conversation. So I learned a lot of interesting things about Ireland and Ballyshannon. At the end Patricia even sang me a folk song "And it's no, nay, never ..." - wonderful and unforgettable!

    The location was perfect as it was a 10 minute into the town. Ballyshannon is lovely and we enjoyed Dicey Reillys Pub and the Gourmet burgers served out the back of the pub were excellent. Breakfast was great and Karen our host couldn't have been more lovely. The room was comfortable with en-suite bathroom and everywhere was immaculate and clean.

    Everything about our stay was fantastic. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The shepherds hut was in a lovely setting and ideal location. The hut is also very well equipped and spacious. Represented fantastic value for money and was much cheaper than the hotels in Bundoran. We would certainly stay here again.

    The hotel has a lovely welcoming atmosphere. The owners are very friendly and spend time socializing with the guests. The decor is of an older fashion, very expensive and luxurious. The room was extremely clean and the beds were comfortable. We would definitely stay here again if we're ever in Ballyshannon again.

    The B&B was within walking distance of Ballyshannon but located in a quiet country location with a sea view. The breakfast was superb and both Patricia & Dessie were attentive but not intrusive. They provided local information and recommendations and were friendly and made us both very welcome.
