Fabulous
Pros:

Warm welcome on arrival, glass of bubbles, staff really friendly. Lovely bar and the food and service in the restaurant were fantastic. Breakfast was exceptional, the nicest I've had in any hotel. Room was spotless and very well equipped, water, toiletries etc

Cons:

Cannot find fault, room view was onto a brick wall, however this didn't reduce enjoyment of our stay at all.

Pros:

The overall room was nice with city view. The staff was great and breakfast was also very good.

Cons:

The room has multiple windows in the room I stayed in and had roll down shades that didn’t block out all the light. There was street noise as being close to street hard not to.

Pros:

We recently celebrated our silver wedding anniversary and on arrival we were upgraded to the silver suite apparently the best in the hotel plus a glass of bubbly for all guests on arrival really makes it a personal touch. Staff are all lovely and we will definitely be back.

An absolute pleasure from beginning to End
Pros:

The Hotel was very centrally located within walking distance of almost everything. Located less than 10 mins walk from Guild Hall and Central Bus Station.

Every single member of Staff from when we first arrived at reception, to where we ate breakfast and to the girl we met on the corridor cleaning the rooms were all super friendly and efficient, tending to all our needs.

Cons:

The parking in Derry is a nightmare. Max of 1 hr in most city center locations, parking near hotel is on street parking with 1 hr max and there are plenty of traffic wardens from 9 to 5 to dish out tickets. However, we were able to pre park each day in a parking lot about 10 mins away at Bishops Gate costing 7.20 pounds per day and free overnight
