Mill Park Hotel

Mill Park Hotel

5/5 Excellent
Great place to stay in Donegal
"The Mill park is a very nice hotel equipped with pool, steam room, and other fitness amenities that most European hotels do not have. We loved coming back here after our days touring Donegal, whether it be hiking in the cliffs, shopping downtown, or driving to remote locations. The restaurants, bars and other amenities are wonderful, and the staff very helpful and aiming to please. "
