Hotel berhampiran Lisnagelvin Rd, Londonderry

Exceptional staff that went out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay and that we took full advantage of everything Derry had to offer. We arrived early and they gladly stored our luggage until we could check-in. When we came back they had the luggage in our room for us. Very clean rooms. The breakfast was made to order, very good, and well worth the value.

Booked Abbey B&B after being recommended by friend, have to say it was spot on , double room was ideal with en-suite with power shower, clean fresh bedding& very quiet. Breakfast was freshly cooked with as much tea & coffee as wanted Lovely sitting areas inside & out which was nice as we had perfect weather House was perfectly located to historical areas of Derry & 5 minute walk to town centre. Seamus ,Helen & Ellie were perfect hosts very welcoming and friendly Would I stay here again ? Only if they got nicer biscuits instead of those ginger snaps Mary & Gordon

Really not as advertised. We stayed at the hotel Monday and Tuesday but moved to another hotel Wednesday as we didn’t sleep. Bed mattress so old and lumpy. Nothing in the description was how it actually was. No soap or toiletries in the room. We paid for a deluxe room which was on the ground floor right next to the front door, that was the only area we had access to for our stay. The room was so warm but there was no fan and hotel directly onto Main Street so not ideal to open windows and folk looked in when curtains and blinds open. The bar and restaurant’ (a few tables) and the balcony terrace looking over the city was locked up during our stay and there was no access to vending machines. We were told it only opens at weekends and it was booking. com fault for not as putting such. Photos advertised a lovely breakfast but it’s a limited selection of bread/cakes and a bit of ham and cheese. I had a very stale sausage roll. Nothing appeared fresh and the milk was off and curdled my tea, although I did get an apology for that. Room was big enough but no wardrobe, just 3 hangers on a wall rack. Parking is on a very busy packed street. Rooms are apparently only serviced if you request it! We were offered fresh water for the rooms, which we got but the used cups were left and milk not replenished (again I was told I should have asked) no one was around to ask and owner was off site the 2 days we were there. It is a good ten minute walk into the town, we were happy to walk but it’s a very steep walk and I know some may find it too strenuous to walk up. My parents still travel and walk but they would t have been able to do the hill, maybe should be made slightly clearer. We did love the walk though. We found a great alternative and we did live the town and all the landmarks.

We had a lovely stay. We went to a Motown show which was great. The room was lovely, everything we needed and the food and service was excellent. The receptionist on arrival was very welcoming. The pianist in the foyer was also a nice touch. Overall a very pleasant experience and we would stay again.

I have to say I have been going to Da Vincis for years, wasnt sure about the change, me just being over familiar with the norm, I have to say we went to the restaurant for our Sunday lunch last week, Leona and staff were amazing. Leona is a great front of house in the restaurant, very welcoming, very genuine and professional Yea teething problems but when u feel like nothings a problem and the service and food was amazing it just fell into place, when the staff make it their business to make u feel special and I’m sure that was carried out with all customers in the restaurant was great. Went to the bar and Les is an absolute diamond, breath of fresh air, I have to say the changes are good and very welcome, keep up the great transformation as I’m sure this is only the start of a new generation in da vincis.
