The location of the hotel and room size were amazing! Jacuzzi was out of order when we were there, and needed a swimming cap for the pool so we couldn't use them. The bathroom was nice, but the shower curtain does cling to you a bit. Overall pretty nice but not perfect.

Fantastic location right in the centre of Derry. Our family room was huge and plenty of space for the 3 of us. Although there was renovation happening we honestly didn't notice anything. The leisure facilities were excellent. Others have noted the parking charges, so thanks to that we parked on the road just outside Ebrington Square for free and just walked across the Peace Bridge.
