From the moment you enter you can tell this is a good hotel. The reception staff are wonderful - exactly who you would want to welcome you and explain everything you would need to know. The room was great...we were in a relatively inexpensive room so our view was predominantly other buildings' walls. We could not fault the bed - very comfortable and the shower room - very hot, powerful shower. We ate in the restaurant for our breakfasts and one evening for dinner. Absolutely excellent food and again great folk serving the food. A joy to be there. We would recommend your staying here if you were visiting Derry - a great little hotel in the heart of the walled City. Perfect!

Wonderful Shipquay

The hotel was wonderful. Is in a great area with historical sites and shopping. The staff was so friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was very tasty and quite a bit of food. The beds were comfortable and so were the pillows I could’ve stayed longer.

The only negative is the location. It is half way up a very steep hill and parking is a 15 minute walk away. No immediate parking and not accessible for those struggling with hills. Only a few rooms have AC. The food and staff are amazing.

Fantastic staff

Week before our stay we received a courtesy call from Brendan regarding parking etc. Thought this was a lovely touch. On arrival at the hotel we were early for check-in and hoped to drop off our luggage. Mairead at reception advised that our room was ready and could check-in. We were delighted. We were then told we got an upgrade and offered a glass of bubbly. Food, cocktails and staff were excellent. Had a fantastic stay and will definitely return and recommend to others.
