The Grade B1-listed Bishop’s Gate Hotel is positioned within the historic city walls of Derry City’s Cathedral Quarter. Built in 1899, Bishop’s Gate Hotel blends Edwardian architecture, stylish appointments and luxurious facilities, which have been sensitively restored to pay homage to the rich heritage of the building, whilst exceeding the contemporary needs of its guests. Valet parking is available for an additional charge. Wonderful location. The restaurant and lounge was great. The rooms were a great size and very comfortable. The staff were wonderful, in particular Kaysi at the front desk who answered any questions we had, gave us plenty of insight on the city, and even gave a souvenir to take to my parents who had such a good experience with the hotel 8 years prior. Without a doubt, will return next time in Derry.
