positive:

High-quality facilities, especially kids club.

The facilities on offer at this hotel seem to be as wide-ranging as they are high quality, with the swimming pool and leisure centre found to be relaxing, and the kids club, Planet Active, was a firm favourite of both children and adults.

Negative Reviews

negative:

Service can be a little slow.

Some found the dinner and breakfast services to be a little slow, and a few thought the check-in time was later than it should be, with some further waiting required for rooms.

negative:

Rooms a bit dated, or is it the colours?.

A few of those who stayed found the room decor to be on the dated side, but as some guests remarked, this could be due to the colour scheme used, rather than any indication of age.

negative:

Apparently thin walls.

Guests occasionally mentioned that the walls at Inishowen Gateway seemed to be a bit thin as they sometimes heard noise from other guests in adjacent rooms to theirs.
