They had run out of cooked food at the breakfast buffet and thus a large queue of people were left waiting for 15 mins for supplies to be replenished. Bad management

Derry City hotel is located in a beautiful area of the city. Its a min's walk from peace bridge, shops & Dining. Food is lovely in the hotel.. My only fault would be that when we go to the room to relax they always put us in a room without the view,, ie (wall facing wall!)in a beautiful city, but I understand that this isn't always possible.😊

Loved our break in Derry and definitely recommend the City Hotel. Marked down only because the leisure facilities and pool weren’t available during our stay as looked forward to a swim each morning. That aside the hotel is in a perfect location for exploring the city and its fascinating history, and staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was amazing and loved the fact that the toast was made as your breakfast was dished up, without having to manoeuvre a toast machine that had its settings moved with every user. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Central location
City Hotel was very central , busy hotel with a buzz about it. Service was plesant although slow at times perhaps not enough staff at the very busy bar & lobby areas . We were able to get parked the first night in the free parking provided by the hotel. However when we returned the second evening the hotel parking was full and we had to use the pay carpark nearby. There was a misunderstanding regarding the hotel stamping the parking ticket before we got our car from the paid parking. The hotel was unable to assist with reducing the paid parking fee was disappointing as we choose the hotel because it said parking onsite...
