We stayed at the City Hotel in Derry which is a modern hotel and centrally located. We asked for a room facing the River Foyle and our room was large, clean, modern and with a splendid view. We were on the 5th floor and the windows are sound proof. Our king sized bed was very comfortable and the room was... More

Nice comfrotable rooms, if a little dull. Good location right in the centre of Derry, with views over the Peace Bridge. The breakfast was very good. The staff were what made this hotel, they were all friendly, welcoming and informative.

We stayed here for two nights as part of a CIE tour. The hotel is located a short walk from the city wall and the Tower museum. It was very busy, but the staff was friendly and efficient. Meals were good. Rooms were comfortable and we had a nice view from our windows.

Visiting Derry was a highlight of our trip and staying at the City Hotel was perfect for our needs. The hotel is very nice and well located. Staff very friendly and helpful. We were able to walk, walk, walk...make sure you walk across the Peace Bridge to the other side of Derry. This city is filled with Northern Ireland's history... More

Having traveled extensively the City Hotel is the best hotel of it's kind that I have had the pleasure to stay in. My stay which was during the Jazz Festival was fantastic I cannot fault the service, facilities, staff and location. The rooms are immaculate and nothing is too much trouble for the staff who smiled continually despite being extremely... More

I have stayed here a number of times on business and it is your standard hotel. The rooms I have stayed in have been 'superior rooms' and have been clean and comfortable. I have always requested a quiet room as I need my sleep and hotel noise does tend to keep me up! The breakfast is average and mostly very... More

Had a nice stay, great location. Staff all very polite and helpful. The room was nice and had a great view over the city. Only downside was lack of spaces in advertised free parking, so had to pay for public car park. We'll be back.
