15 Best Things to Do in Derry (Northern Ireland
"In the old centre of Derry a street and square from the 18th and 19th centuries have rediscovered their old-time charm. This small quarter deserves a wander for its artisan craft shops, cafes and restaurants. There are quaint Georgian houses, staircases, gas lamps and wrought-iron footbridges, and a host of businesses within a couple of minutes on foot."

Top 10 Derry Hotels-2021 Luxury Hotels Ranking | Trip.com Blog
"We thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay at the Bishop's Gate Hotel, which is conveniently located just inside the city walls, within easy walking distance to the central sights of Derry/Londonderry. Stephanie at reception, who checked us in, was charming, gracious, cheerful, friendly, full of smiles and very helpful. We liked her very much. Our luxury king room was very quiet and comfortable. We slept well. Although the room was a little small, preventing it from having a dresser to unpack into, our overall comfort was unaffected. We remain very pleased with our choice. The Gown restaurant was superb for both dinner and breakfast. The wait staff made sure that everything was to our satisfaction. Our Sirloin steaks for dinner were perfectly done, the accompanying sauces (we chose the garlic butter and green peppercorn cream) were very tasty, as were the chunky chips and tossed salad. The Apple Tart Tatin and Warm Sticky Toffee Pudding were the perfect finish to a delicious dinner. Breakfast was a continental buffet of cereals, fruits, meats and cheeses, breads and pastries, but also included freshly cooked items made to order. Choices included a spinach, tomato and Brie crêpe, which was phenomenal, as were the pancakes, eggs, porridge, mushrooms, sausage and crispy bacon. Like dinner, these were all perfectly prepared. We were able to indulge ourselves completely in preparation to walk the city walls and tour the sights of Derry/Londonderry.""This is an excellent hotel, right in the heart of the city centre. The excellent service started as soon as we arrived. we were met at the door, bags taken immediately and valet parking was taken care off. At check in we were greeted by name, taken to our room and shown around. After a walk we spent a couple of very pleasant hours in the bar with friends over coffee and a bottle of wine. Breakfast was also excellent with lovely food cooked to order. We are already looking to return with the whole family.""We booked Bishops gate 10 minutes before arriving, as our other accommodation had to suddenly close, and the staff at bishops gate went out of their ways to make us feel welcome. We had just got engaged and on hearing this, the hotel upgraded us to the penthouse suite, which was fab! The dinner (which was apart of the package) was exceptional, the service was amazing and everyone was so friendly! Although not planned, our stay at bishops gate was perfect and made our day even more special... we will be back :) "

The Best Hotels in Derry for Every Traveller
"Bishop’s Gate Hotel is just across from the Derry Walls, where visitors can explore the intact 17th-century enclosure of the city, featuring 24 restored cannons and seven gates. The listed Edwardian-style hotel has plenty of history of its own, having once been the headquarters of a club of local gentry who had served in the Crimean War, with Winston Churchill and W.B. Yeats among the visitors."
