Booked the Tara after reading the Tripadvisor reviews and very happy with the outcome. Had lovely room overlooking the harbour and fishing fleet, and the sauna steam room and Jaccuzzi all to ourselves. Staff friendly and helpful and great breakfast. Restaurant looked a bit quiet so gave it a miss in favour of 22 Main street which was also reviewed on this site. Had a very nice meal, good atmosphere, nice place but avoided the seafood, as most of it seemed to be brought in already prepared - mussels could only be had as on the menu "that's the way they come in" and the most popular fish was an imported one, not a local catch. A bit surprising for a town based round a large fishing fleet. Having said that, our meat-based meal was lovely and I would definitely go back.

I stayed at the Tara for one night on my driving tour of Donegal. It is a perfectly nice hotel. Clean rooms with some of the modern ammenities that can be hard to find in Ireland. The windows, however, didn't open fully (child proof?) and the room was very warm even though it wasn't warm outside. My traveling companion had trouble sleeping. It is a business person's hotel lacking the charm of the smaller hotels and B&B's. Finally, the town of Killybegs is not one that I would reccomend for a tourist. With so many beautiful and quaint towns nearby, it was a shame to spend the night in Killybegs. I would reccomend Ardara or Glenties as alternatives. (also very expensive)

We stayed in the Tara hotel at the weekend for 1 night.We had a harbour view room which was the cleanest hotel room i was ever in.It had all the usual things plus a safe.We ate in the bar that night and the food was great.Overall we had a lovely stay and cant wait to go back. We paid 65euro pp.

A colleague and I stayed at the hotel on business. It was a warm evening and we decided not to eat in the hotel, but go for a short walk to a near by restaurant. The rooms we stayed in were fantastic. They opened up onto a shared balcony where we had a few beers looking over the sea front. The en-suite bathrooms were small, but rather luxurious. There was a speaker built into the bathroom ceiling so you could listen to the tv. I really want one of those at home now! The rooms were so clean you would feel like you were the 1st person to stay in it. If you have a laptop, broadband internet is available in rooms which was useful for me. The few members of staff I had contact with weren't overly friendly, but efficient. Everything else in the hotel makes up for this.
