Overall we found our stay at the Great Northern Hotel absolutely wonderful, if I could find one thing to mention, it would be that the breakfast could be warmer. Maybe a microwave or two might be arranged. But even this won't stop us returning. We enjoyed every moment at the hotel and the surroundings. The staff are perfect, they couldn't be more friendly and helpful. The room was kept wonderfully clean and well supplied. Any food we asked for was served promptly and was of an excellent standard. We would and will recommend the hotel to anyone who expresses an interest in visiting Bundoran. Thank you all for a great experience.

This place was an absolute disaster. One star is far too generous, but it’s the lowest I can give. From start to finish, everything about this stay was unacceptable and for the price, it’s an absolute scam. We arrived to an empty reception with no staff in sight, which already set the tone. The restaurant shuts at 8pm, which is laughable for a hotel pretending to be “international.” The room itself was in a shocking state run-down, stale smell, poorly maintained, and not even something as basic as a hairdryer provided. The night was the breaking point. It turned into a complete nightmare. There were people screaming and shouting in the hallway until 2am, to the point where the Garda had to come and intervene. No control, no security, no respect for guests. Getting any sleep was impossible. For a hotel, this is simply disgraceful. Breakfast was just as bad, if not worse. I arrived at 9am and there was already almost nothing left and absolutely nothing was being restocked. It felt neglected and chaotic, with more cleaning products lying around than actual food. To top it off, I asked for an espresso and was told I had to pay extra. At that point, it just felt insulting. I genuinely regret ever booking this place. This was easily one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had. I will never return, and I strongly advise anyone considering it to stay away at all costs.
