What people say
Yes as a group we were very impressed and will be recommending it to others. We went to Lifford Dog Track and came back to Letterkenny to finish off the night. Very enjoyable night was had by all. Also the Hotel itself is very accessible and tastefully decorated. The receptionist was exceptional. Everything about Gallagher's from its location to the service provided was excellent. This hotel is definitely the best value for money, staff were also more than helpful and friendly.all reviews »

The comfort and style of the entire hotel. Staff were really friendly and helpful. The hotel was centrally located. The room and its facilities. Just a note, I didn't read the reviews about the hotel on the website.The car park for the hotel was not sign posted very well. This is a comment not a complaint. [1] Major flood in dinning room. [2]Generator failure during power cut causing evacuation. In bothemergencies staff worked fast, made alternative arrangements, kept theguests informed and restored the system quickly. Well done.parking was non existent on that weekend. When I booked online I added to the notes that I would like a room with a view if possible as it was a special occassion (my husbands birthday), and the room we were given looked onto a wall, 4 feet from our window, not exactly what I thought we would get.Though I was told the hotel had wifi throughout the entire hotel I could not get a signal in my room, however there were a few seated areas in the hallways where I could sit and use my laptop. sausages!. somr guests a bit noisy. I asked for a wake-up call at 9:00 a.m. but received one at 1:00 a.m. instead that woke me way before I needed to be up. I figured the desk clerk misunderstood me and called down again to request to be woken in the morning.the bathroom was poorly designed making it very cramped. There was a mix-up on our bill at check-out but it was resolved to our satisfaction. the d j was not very pleasant in the bar. having to take two elavators to get to level 3. Taking the first one to level 2 then walking down the hall to get the next one to level 3.
