Pier Head Hotel Spa & Leisure (Mullaghmore, Ireland)

What's immediately striking about reviews of Pier Head Mullaghmore is how many of them come from repeat guests. Many guests have been coming there for years, and the quality of the staff there is the top reason they give for continuing to come back. The employees are very friendly, treating their guests like family and highly accommodating of requests.

Previous guests loved the food served at the hotel's restaurant. The traditional Irish breakfast in the morning is cooked fresh and has a wide selection of items to choose from. The seafood served for dinner really is fresh off the docks and expertly prepared.

Guests were blown away by the picturesque views from the hotel. From their window they could watch fishermen haul in the morning catch in the harbour, see the sunlight sparkling off the water in Donegal Bay, or admire the rugged beauty of Benbulben mountain.

Many guests reported a variety of small maintenance and atheistic issues in the rooms, such as windows not shutting properly, cracks or holes in the walls, threadbare carpets, and worn furniture. In general they found the rooms to be tried, the decor outdated, and hoped that a renovation may be in the works soon.

Though some guests found them to be perfectly fine, others felt that the beds were highly uncomfortable. They described them as rock hard, and some complained that they had a sleepless night because of them.

Guests would have appreciated having tea and coffee making facilities in the room. Many also expressed that they would have preferred a larger TV than the 21-inch flatscreens in the room.
