Holiday Inn Express Derry - Londonderry by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great room, central location, very helpful and pleasant staff, all in good spirits and happy to help, convenient, reasonably priced parking nearby at a special hotel rate. Close to shops and pubs etc."

City Hotel Derry

8/10 Good

"We stayed while we attended a wedding elsewhere very spacious room just needs a wee up date as no changing plug sockets the bathroom is looking old needs up dated we had an amazing view of the foyle river and guild hall looked stunning at night all lit up staff were so lovely breakfast was so many choices to have really enjoy it and lovely strong coffee we didn’t get to use the bar as we were out but it looks good I just didn’t like the charge of £14 a night for car parking under the hotel but hopefully we will visit again soon"

Roe Valley Resort

8/10 Good

"Roe Valley as it is now is 5 star for families and golfers. Spacious rooms, attentive staff & plenty of activities to keep youngsters occupied rain or shine. But it’s not a Spa Resort for couples just yet - although with the amount of investment and upgrading going on as part of its refurbishments I’m confident it’s going to be amazing for everyone to rival its partner hotel the Galgorm. That said, we had 4 wonderful days there exploring the Causeway coast for which it’s perfectly situated, and the Fratellis evening meals were delicious and good value. The breakfast was off the scale amazing so other than some adult only spaces & a rethink of the bedroom storage space we can’t fault our stay here."

22 The Square

8/10 Good

"Nice large room with high ceiling but could have done with some renovation (window frames etc.) Comfortable bed and furnishings. Access to a fully equipped kitchen and lounge was very useful and comfortable. No real place to leave my bicycle but it was indoors and safe nontheless. I really enjoyed the walking tour of Derry provided by staff at a reasonable price. The staff were only available at their sister location around the corner which could be a little inconvenient. To reach the bathroom I had to go up and downstairs and there was no mirror in the bathroom. The carpets were badly stained in some places."
