Caislean Oir Hotel — meaning “Golden Castle” in Irish — is a charming family-run hotel located in Annagry, County Donegal, close to Donegal Airport (Careenagh). The hotel serves as the ideal base for passengers using Donegal Airport’s services to Dublin, offering a comfortable overnight option in one of Ireland’s most scenic and culturally rich regions. Donegal is part of the Gaeltacht — the Irish-speaking heartland — and a stay at Caislean Oir gives guests an authentic glimpse of traditional west Donegal life.
The hotel features a traditional Irish bar, a restaurant serving locally sourced Donegal produce, and comfortable guest rooms. The surrounding landscape of west Donegal is spectacular — with sea cliffs, Atlantic beaches, and some of the most dramatic scenery in Ireland all within a short drive. The hotel is a popular base for visitors to Glenveagh National Park, Slieve League, and the Donegal Gaeltacht.
Donegal Airport is approximately 5 km from the hotel, reachable in around 10 minutes by car. Taxis are available locally. Letterkenny, Donegal town, and the stunning Fanad Peninsula are all within easy reach.
