Arnolds Hotel

Everything especially the breakfast.

There was nothing that I didn't like.

What stands out is how friendly and helpful all of the staff are and the welcoming atmosphere this creates. Also the quality of the meals in the restaurant is excellent. Location is very important, Dunfanaghy has something for all age groups, it's buzzing and we love it.

Absolutely no complaints.

Good location and friendly staff

Rooms could do with an upgrade but we’re comfortable although shower wasn’t didn’t work great

Hotel was in a great position in centre of Dunfanachy. Staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The food in the in-house restaurant was excellent and the included breakfast was very good. Our room would have been nice enough - but heat was excessive as detailed below.

The room was very hot - due to being right above the hotels extensive kitchens. It also had poor ventilation options. The view from the room was over the back yard of kitchen - not good.

The hotel was lovely I liked everything else about the hotel except the shower & bathroom which needs upgrading The breakfast was first class

Sadly the shower was not sufficient quality It was super hot around the metal ware bit and water was variable and went to roasting then dodgy We were overcharged for three children's soft drinks which was disappointing

Staff, location and facilities were excellent, being comfortable and welcoming.

Improvement would be beneficial on the food. The cauliflower tacos in the bar were not as good as expected. The cauliflower was cold and the tacos were crispy on one side and soggy on the other. The vegetarian breakfast was good, but not great, as it was not uniformly hot, particularly the tomato. As a single diner in the restaurant, I like to have a secluded table. The single table offered was beside the staff entrance to the kitchen and alongside the main walkway. It felt like sitting in a corridor! It would have been better moved to near the window, where there is space, and it would have aligned with three other tables

Very warm and attentive staff throughout the hotel. Comfy and spacious room. Good value food and drink,

No trad music in town that night and the music on the night we stayed is not to my taste.

Staff, breakfast location - all excellent

Shower wasn’t the best - but I’m nitpicking

We have been visiting Arnold’s hotel for 35 years. The hotel has always been somewhere very special to us and the staff are always friendly and welcoming.

Nothing

Location of the hotel is good. Close to everything in the town. Nice people at the front desk. Breakfast was good. Easy free parking around the hotel

Rooms are in need a bit of an update. Rooms 53 and 54 are directly below the bar area, be prepared for noise of the live music show downstairs until midnight.

The included breakfast was amazing - fresh, tasty, local, variety, all with great service. The location was great for our 3 days of family history and site seeing. Thank you so much. We would love to return someday!

Hard to think of anything. Maybe just the older plumbing fixtures with toilet tank in room (#38) taking an oddly longtime to refill each time. Overall we loved the charm of this place including the bathroom. Hot water and shower were very good. Beds were comfy and on the soft side as I like. Room furnishings and bedding seemed new and modern.

The location was very good. The room was a good size, although the bathroom was dated.

The room was near steps and a door in the corridor, which not all guests where quiet coming through.

I wanted to write a review to say how friendly, efficient and hard working all the bar, kitchen and restaurant serving staff are at the Arnold hotel. We stayed two nights on a very hot 1st weekend in July. Dunfanaghy was busy with visitors at start of the holiday season and in the run up to The Open golf across the border, so the hotel was full and demand for food and drink was high. The staff worked long shifts in the heat but the standard of service never dropped. Well done to all the team!

Small niggle - would it hurt to put a box of tissues in the room for guests?? Also, be aware the hotel is on the main street and there is noise from revellers outside on a warm summer evening if you have a room on the front of the hotel, so don't book one of those if you want an early night! Also better signage in in the car park please - we weren't even sure if we were parked at the right hotel!

Great location facing the sea in a very pleasant coastal village

Nothing much

Friendly, helpful staff Large comfy bed. Main hall and reception area was large and bright with comfy chairs.

Bathroom badly in need of being modernised. A shower screen on the bath would have been good rather than a curtain. Good menu with a big choice of dishes but portions were enormous . There was no fruit offered on breakfast menu apart from that served with granola. Maybe I should have asked if there was any available because the staff were always helpful.

The staff was very attentive and friendly

Great location .lovely food. Good atmosphere

Hotel could do with an update . Quaint hotel

No lift

Lovely clean & warm hotel lovely staff great location

Lady at reception and the downstairs seating area

The rooms were tiny and felt like college dorms, very old and grungy

Arnolds is in a great location, very convenient to everything in Dunfanaghy. Staff are friendly and informative and the rooms are tidy, the bed is very comfortable.

Our ‘over the bath shower’ hadn’t very good water pressure. Much prefer a shower cubicle as they are a lot more practical.
