We stayed at the Railway Lodge for 1 night ahead of a wedding, and could not have been happier with our choice of accommodation. The location was perfect, Sheila was amazing, so extremely helpful with anything that we needed and the room was comfortable with wifi and tea/coffee available. Would definitely recommend!!!

Stayed for one night and was very happy with the hotel. We were there for a wedding at St Patricks church which was in walking distance of the Lodge. Making the location perfect as it was also a 2 min walk to the town centre with ample choice of restaurants and pubs. Very happy with the accommodation and staff. Room... More

Stayed 3 nights April 2013 for some hiking and touring around Co Donegal. Sheila was wonderful, welcoming and a pleasure to chat with each morning about what to see and how to see it. Great sleep, room very clean,comfortable and quiet. A short walk from the town centre keeps you close to everything yet no noise at all. Breakfast delicious.... More

Just returned from the Railway lodge after a great weekend. We have been a few times now and we are never disappointed with the service and value for money. Sheila is a great host and always makes us feel welcome. Looking forward to our next visit.

From the moment I arrived- a weary, single backpacker in December- I was treated like a gem by Sheila and George. Having off-handedly mentioned I like hot cocoa, Sheila rushed down and fetched me hot chocolate and an assortment of cookies. I ate a day's worth of food at breakfast- cereal, juice, milk, tea, coffee, and a variety of toasts,... More

As others have said here, the Railway Lodge is ideally located in a central part of Donegal town (for anyone that knows the town, it is very close to the old train station). Our stay was only a short one but we were able to tour around the town while leaving the car at the B&B (free parking), our hosts... More

Our first pleasant surprise was the size of the room! We had booked what was described on the website as a "Double room with bed for a child". We were pleased to discover the room had a double and a full size single divan so there would be ample space for 3 adults. We had chosen this guesthouse for its... More
