The restaurant here has one of the world's most stunning locations, right overlooking beautiful Lough Swilly with its changing tides and with open vistas of the many moods of the sky. The design is astonishing, all wood, light, a joyous place to eat. No problem parking. Good food, enhanced by the surroundings. Bedroom of modest proportion, but with the view... more

We stayed here for 1 night in July. I was initially going to book via the website but wanted to ensure a view of Lough Swilly so decided to phone to book - I was glad I did as I booked a double room with breakfast for 40 euros cheaper than the website. On arrival we were in awe of... more

I managed to get a brilliant deal for this hotel, so my sister and I decided to treat our mother with a weekend break away to the waters edge hotel. I phoned on numerous occassions, regarding dates to stay and each time, the receptionists were professional and patient with my requests, as it ended up that I went myself. On... more

Having braved our way through the potholed and twisty roads to Rathmullan, we arrived around 5pm and parked in the hotel's ample carpark which looks out over an impressive bay. At this point we went into the hotel for a bite to eat in the bar and we were were told they'd stopped serving bar food and they weren't taking... more

Amazing location on Lough Swilly. Hotel seems new and quite modern. the dining area has a beautiful view over the lough. The rooms were standard....nothing special but clean and adequate for the rate we payed. Rooms had a view over the lough but were on the ground floor with public access to the small area in front of the rooms... more

Just had a fantastic overnight stay in the Waters Edge in Rathmullan, Donegal. Had been promising ourselves a visit for ages but never got there before but will definitely be back. If you can get it, book the deluxe room overlooking Lough Swilly - excellent accommodation and the view cannot be beaten! Food in the restaurant was excellent and service... more

This was a great place for us to get away from it all for one night. The lunch, dinner and breakfast here we brilliant. Right up my street with great menu. The views from the restaurant and the room were just what we wanted with stormy and elemental vistas. The room, "The Earls Suite", was fantastic. Loads of space, views... more

My husband and I stayed at the The Water's Edge, Rathmullan for our wedding anniversary. The location, staff, food and atmosphere were absolutely excellent. It was completely faultless. I would highly recommend the Water's Edge. It is a hidden gem! First class hotel, first class food and exceptional surroundings! Don't hesitate - book now and see for yourself!!! more

Stayed here for a "watercolour painting "course and definatly hope to return again to stay. Staff could not do more, were welcoming and made me feel "at home". Wonderful views from the restaurant and "Lough" facing bedrooms. Very clean and comfortable.Good centre for exploring County Donegal although a car is essential. more

We stayed in the Earls Suite for 2 nights. The room was excellent with great views. The food was great. The restaurant also had great views. The atmosphere was friendly and very laid back. The staff could not be more helpful. Rathmullen was a good base for exploring the north of Donegal. Would definitely go back. more
