The service was so fast and very polite staff. The room itself was fine, but the dinners and service was brilliant, which for me made this hotel a great stay.

Nice enough - could use a deep clean.
Staff was great - very welcoming and helpful. Our room had some kind of mould, as we both woke up with very sore throats...

Bundoan
Went for the day to Bundoran. Hotel had hand sanitizers everywhere which made me feel comfortable. It was great to sit at the bar, they had distanced the stools well. Ate in bar which was lovely. Definitely go back

Our stay at the Grand Central Hotel.
We found the staff very friendly and helpful. The food was very good.The hotel could do with updating, the beds wasn't comfortable. The carpark was public about 60 yards away and no credit was given by the hotel for it's use.

Bundoran
Bundoran was a disappointment - a cross between Bognor Regis, Blackpool and Southend but smaller. Hotel was functional but curtains coming off rails, tv didn't really work and the constant noise from the lift left a sour taste for us.

very close to local and short-distance away touris
Very satisfactory. excellent value. three areas that might be improved are: 1) heat control of shower in room 108 2) full irish breakfast although enjoyable was inclined to be colder than is satisfactory - perhaps because I had it twice at 8am before things 'hotted up'. 3) someone to bring heavy luggage to bedrooms (and of course receive tip)

Grand Central Hotel in Budoran Co Donegal -
Excellent location in the town of Bundoran for beach & pubs. Staff were very welcoming & our room was clean & spacious. Would definitely recomment the Grand Central especially for a weekend break or long weekend getaway due to its proximity to all local amenities for both day & night.

GRAND CENTRAL HOTEL IN BUNDORAN
we were in a room to the front of the hotel and the noise all night was terrible coming off people shouting and roaring and blowing horns on the street. also we were asked to pay a cover fee of 20 euro to go into the bar as there was a celtic night on and we wanted to get some bar food but we declined and were put into a big empty room with nobody in it to have our meal which turned out to be horrible. we felt they were waiting on us to leave so we did and went to our room where the noise from the band playing republican songs in the bar was coming straight up to our room. it was so loud and the singing left a lot to be desired. next morning we met a lady and 2 children who had the same problem and they demanded their money back. All i say is thank God we were only staying 1 night. we wont be going back

id wud give it a 5.5/10
the hotel is very good in the sense that it is very central. but let me say the hotle is very awkward! brining in ur bags is near impossible the doors at the front are very small . the food is ok its not world class standard the bar is very nice staff are very kind and friendly. the room was ok facilities were nice except for the tv. i know people are not in the room a lot but when they are u wud expect a nice tv not a small little box to look at. i have been in many 3* hotels and a nice big tv has been in them. overall it was good i will go back as its the most central hotel in bundoran ( hence the name ) but let me say it is not worth all the money we paid a night for 2 adults and a child for the weekend :O thanks for the nice stay hope this will help :D

Hotel Grand Central di Bundoran
L'hotel si trova in ottima posizione vicino alla spiaggia ed al lungo mare.Dalla camera al 6° piano si vedeva la baia di Bundoran.La camera era grande e pulita, l'unica pecca era il letto piccolo e scomodo.Buona colazione.Purtroppo alla nostra partenza si è rotto l'ascensore e dal sesto piano è stato un'inferno scendere con le valige.Comunque consiglio l'hotel.
