Our room was air conditioned ( not all in Ireland are) and we were served well by the bartender in the evening and for breakfast. They had a nice selection of breakfast options including salmon and scrambled eggs. Good coffee, fine linens, overall a place I would return to.

We loved the accommodations at Shipquay during our stay there in Derry. Given its location within…read morethe City Walls, the Shipquay is ideal for enjoying your time in Derry. The Shipquay is located in a gorgeous Italianate-style-listed heritage building that comprises a wealth of magnificent boutique hotel rooms. Our Superior Double Room had a beautiful and comfortable king-sized bed that was stylish and sophisticated. We enjoyed the amenities, such as the walk-in shower and the castiron tub that my wife and I loved immensely. They had complimentary WiFi and robes and slippers for us to wear in the morning and at night that was quite comfortable. The restaurant on the lobby floor provided us with delicious eats for breakfast and dinner, with refreshing and tasty cocktails, all in a stylish and contemporary interior that was our speed. The hotel is close to everything for site seeing and visiting attractions. There are tons of restaurants and bars within walking distance to enjoy. And if you want to stay indoors for the night, you have the restaurant and bar or speakeasy that's on-site. There are shopping centers everywhere, including one next store if you need to pick up some clothes, souvenirs, or just want to take a gander through. Overall, this is the place to stay when in Derry, and we will do so again upon our next one.

A sign hangs outside this hotel that says "4 Star Rated".... Yeah right! Maybe out of a 20 point…read morerating system. Who gives out these ratings? On our tour of Ireland this was by far the worst hotel on our trip. In all fairness, the location is pretty nice. It's located on the river, only a few steps from the Pease Bridge and maybe a block or so from the inner city. That's where the good things end! The hotel is old and the amenities are poor or nonexistent. Where do I start? No refrigerator, only two plugs in the room which are located far away from the bed. The beds are hard and uncomfortable and the pillows suck (flat and hard)! No air conditioning and the TV is tiny. Instead of A/C there is a fan in the room. Food on the breakfast buffet ran out fast and took a long time to restock. And the service was in no hurry to get anything. Entertainment in the bar area was comically bad. I actually thought that it was karaoke when we walked in and sat down!

We are getting ready to check out of our hotel room now, after we booked here last minute last night. The rooms were immaculate, and very beautifully decorated, in the Rococo style, very gilded and ornate. They offer laundry service, which was very valuable to us after travelling for a few days and running out of clean clothes. Service was first class, and felt very personal, in with the hotel and in the restaurant. Breakfast was also included in our room rate , which includes a full Irish breakfast or a continental if you are looking for something lighter. The rate was great, even for off-season and for what we got period a great value I would recommend to any traveler. The beds were very comfortable and it was quiet, so we got a great night sleep.

It was a decent size and pleasantly warm when we arrived - as I get older I dislike going into hotel bedrooms that are cool damp. The in-room tv is smaller than I'd like but personal preference. We had a main course meal in the deal; my wife had beef on a supermarket bought nan bread and enjoyed it. I enjoyed the haddock & chips with mushy peas. I had two pieces of fish but personal preference I'd rather have a thicker single piece. I was annoyed that the proper coffee machine was out of order but hey ho first world problems. Brekky is always a delight. The staff make this place even more special and as with all my reviews on Derry the people are among the friendliest I've ever had the joy to meet.

The Beech Hill Country House Hotel has a rich history. It was constructed in 1739 and originally…read moreserved as the home of Thomas Skipton and his descendants. It was transformed into a 20-room hotel in 1991 by Patsy O'Kane and her brother, Seamus Donnelly. Ten more rooms were added in 2000. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The room we stayed in contained a king bed that seemed 50 percent wider than a standard king. Staff members were friendly and the hotel Ardmore restaurant served excellent food in a fine dining atmosphere. The hotel is located on a quiet road off a major highway on the east side of Derry and contains several acres of trees and walking paths. I highly recommend it.

I had booked Beech Hill Country House which is a stunning Georgian house, with 30 bedrooms and suites, based at Ardmore Road. I had booked a classic double room for my mum and a superior room (as it included both a king size as well as a single bed) for my sister and I, but on arrival were delighted to receive two superior rooms beside each other with adjoining door! A lovely touch. The rooms were huge, warm and comfortable and we were looking forward to relaxing in them later that evening. (I later found out that each room in the hotel looks different as they have all been individually restored, so different décor, paints, fabrics etc) But before we relaxed in our rooms, it was down to the bar for a few drinks and dinner! It was a cold evening so we parked up right in front of the fire- bliss! In fact, we didn't leave and decided to have our dinner right there. The Beech Hill is famed for its food and a number of people remarked to me that I would enjoy it when I mentioned I was staying there. The next morning we went down for breakfast and were impressed with both the cooked and continental selection- with all three of us having a bit of both! After breakfast, we walked round and explored the grounds. The hotel has different trials, with 32 acres of woodland and gardens. During our walk I was so impressed to learn about the history of the site. In June 1941, the United States constructed a naval base on the Foyle, named 'Base One Europe'. It remained the US Navy's main centre of operations in Europe until June 1944. The Beech Hill Country House Hotel provided the location for one the main accommodation camps and we couldn't believe a hut was still in place. Fascinating! Overall I had a brilliant night, particularly the comfortable rooms and amazing history

Right across the street is a good chip shop but they dont serve tarter sauce! Luckily, there is a grocery store right by. The owners live in the house so when ya sit down for a proper irish fry you actually sit at their table...ya dont get that at a fancy schmancy hotel! If your ever up in Derry, I recomend that ya stay here..

Per the hotel, the duvet covers are changed every time a new guest comes in. Hmmmmm. As for the breakfast it was adequate. A bit upset that the tomatoes were not grilled. What saved the breakfast was the whiskey that you are supposed to add to your porridge. It made an ordinary porridge an epic experience. Additionally, I wasn't opposed to also adding the whiskey to my coffee with cream. Yum!!! Didn't add the sugar-hahahaha was trying to save save calories so I could keep my svelte figure.

Beautiful hotel in Northern Ireland…read more My girlfriend and I stayed here for one night while on a CIE bus tour and I could immediately see the differences compared with the hotels we stayed in Ireland compared to Northern Ireland. Elegant long bar with a nice TV. Full bar with a beautiful bookshelf setting against the wall which makes it perfect to snap a photo with the ambiance it creates. I was really taken for a loop when I woke up for breakfast, and they had a bottle of Bushmills Irish Whisky next to the porridge! I did not indulge but how unique and wonderful that they would offer free booze with breakfast as a buffet option. Bushmills Distillery is not too far away so maybe that had something to do with it : ) They had some live music playing adjacent from the bar and the food for dinner was quality. I had the roast beef with two kinds of potatoes. One was reminiscent of potatoes au gratin but was called something else. We liked it so much we jotted down what it was called so we could look up the recipe at another time. Upon a google search here is a description of the potato side dish (It's hard to think of a side-dish more luxurious than gratin dauphinois. Not much more than thinly sliced potatoes layered with butter and cream, it's soft and luscious on the inside, with a gorgeously browned ("gratinée") crusty top that adds fabulous texture. There are also many historical sites near by which you can take a tour with a tour guide for a very small nominal fee. Highly recommend. As always people SYOY!!!!
