Absolutely stunning hotel- definitely had the wow factor! Doorman was straight out to the car as we parked to carry the luggage in. Room was fantastic- very spacious. Lovely scented toiletries. We had dinner in the Cedar restaurant. Food was delicious and well presented. Staff very attentive. Lovely breakfast provided next morning. Spa facilities were superb. Highly recommend - the only 5 star hotel in Donegal.

Lough Eske Castle was superior in every sense of the word. From the moment we drove onto the property grounds, and wound our way through the manicured lawns, beautiful trees and gardens, slowly making our way to the front of the castle (savoring each moment), we were smiling! We were greeted by one of the hotel staff members who kindly took our luggage and parked our car. When we walked into the castle, there were staff members lining each side of the stairwell to welcome us. We were impressed with a friendliness, the professionalism, and the knowledge of every single staff member who we encountered during our trip. The restaurant was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We were celebrating our seventh anniversary, and Johnny, the restaurant lead was kind enough to send over glasses of Prosecco. We spent a great deal of time with him throughout the meal and he was fabulous! And truly, each member of his team was as well. Food was excellent for both dinner and breakfast. A walk down to the lake rounded out our visit. Our only wish was that we had a few more nights to spend at Lough Eske Castle.
