The Malin Hotel in Co Donegal is a real gem; the perfect retreat from the daily grind of everyday life. Appearances can be deceptive and this is certainly a maxim that can be applied to the Malin Hotel, which from the outside is ultimately uninspiring if not at least exuding an unmistakably Irish charm. However, step inside and the warm... more

Having spent a week in Palma Nova/Spain in a 2 star packaged holiday with queues at the bar and buffet I was in need of some real irish hospitality! First thought that sprung to mind was the Malin Hotel - a lovely boutique style hotel, steeped in irish charm with a touch of class! When we arrived we were greeted... more

This was a very rewarding experience. i had a warm welcome, and the service provided was excellent. The staff were exceedingly helpful and went beyond the call of duty when I had ongoing accommodation problems, booking me an alternative hotel way past 11 pm the night before. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel and if/when I am going to Donegal... more

At first glance the hotel looks like a small inn with a hideous extension at the back--but do not judge by the appearances! This is a fantastic hotel with the warmest welcome you could imagine. It is chic, elegant, cosy yet still traditional. We have been going to the Malin Hotel for three years now for long weekends. We keep... more

I got married in the Malin Hotel this july. I had a fabulous time. The hotel was lovely, a real country chic, five star experience. I especially loved the atmosphere that the decor evoked.... Every room is different, many having lovely views over the pretty village green. The bridal suite held for me a timely grace that is hard to... more

Although remote in location I couldn't fault the hotel for its accomodation and family feel. The staff were courteous and very helpful as though nothing was a problem. I'd never been to this part of Ireland before and would gladly come again. It's a great base to venture around Donegal and within easy reach of Derry airport. The food was... more

Stayed here for one night on a romantic break with my Fiancee. Hadn't booked and came across the hotel by chance. The hotel is set in the beautiful village of Malin, with a large green area out front. When we went in to asked if there were any rooms free and the receptionist took us around to see the rooms... more

We found the hotel to be very comfortable and welcoming,considering the weather outside.The rooms contained everything that we would wish,although it was a bit of a squeeze in the bathroom,particularly in the toilet area. Hotel facilities are good.The bar is very cosy and the restaurant serves an excellent choice of food,enough for every pallette and it carrys a very comprehensive... more

The food in this hotel is fantastic but unfortunately the en-suite bathroom let it down terribly. The room was an okay size and had a great childrens room attached but the bathroom was not of an acceptable standard. The tile grouting was black and the sealant around the bath was very dodgy also. I would recommend anyone to go there... more
