    The shower base needed a bit of attention but the water was hot and the flow excellent

    The new owner Jim had just taken over the B&B then had a bad fall and hurt his elbow needing to have it surgically pinned so some of the things that he wanted to update wasn't achievable but the rooms had everything we could need the bed was extremely comfortable the breakfast was great plenty of it and hot and the 2 ladies were friendly and helpful really enjoyed our stay and will be back

    A friend booked this bnb as we were coming to Derry to attend a local restaurant. The location was on Bishops gate street just outside the walls. It was great value and about a ten minute walk from the restaurant. The bnb was clean and had tea and coffee making facilities in the room. We were asked what time we wanted breakfast and this was freshly cooked on the morning by Jim (who had broken his arm) and ably assisted by Francis. Both were friendly and helpful. There was also cereal, fruit and yoghurt and fresh toast if you didn't want a cooked breakfast

    There's nothing we could write in this box everything was great!

    The reception was warm and welcoming. The room was basic but was justified by the price. The location was perfect, only a stones throw from where we had business. Would highly recommend this B&B and we are already planning our next trip. Ps, breakfast was beautiful and plenty of options to keep you going for the day!

    Even though they let us check in later, the trip was not without its challenges. The owner did not us answer the phone for 50 minutes after an employee called us to say it is impossible to check in anymore after 18:00 . During that time we kept calling, he did not answer back so we called customer care to find a solution. They provided none. We panicked and started looking for a new place to stay in for the night seeing that we were very wet from the weather outside. The owner called us after an hour to say he can now receive us, but we almost made a reservation with someone else and we paid a lot of money on customer care calls which helped with nothing. The place was very hard to find. It is not on Google maps. When we arrived, it was the wrong location and the owner was very angry on the phone that we were a couple of minutes late on account of the fact we got lost. The room was very small, we barely had any place to open our luggage. There was no heating. The lady said it will start some time during the night, but it did only in the morning when it was useless because we woke up and had to leave. All in all, we were grateful they finally let us check in later, but with a lot of coming back and forth.

    We appreciated the fact they let us check in later with the help of someone coming by taxi to open the door for us. The lady was very nice, accommodating, she gave us a lot of tips about visiting Derry and about its history. She gave us a good breakfast. They have warm water and the location is clean.

    The place is great!!!The staff is amazing, so kind so helpful. They gave excellent tips and recommendations. And oh my goodness, breakfast was so delicious. The location is really good a few blocks away from the walled city. To doors away, there is a place that sells fish and chips that are so tasty and quite affordable. I will totally stay with them again. I 100% recommend it.

    Bathroom was extremely small but ok for a short stay.

    Location was excellent, walking distance to the walled city and very convenient to see the sights. Parking available on the street. Room was small with a very small bathroom. Excellent breakfast and a friendly & informative host who gave us advice on things to see and do. Small room was offset by location and and excellent host. Would stay again

    The bedroom and bathroom were small - particularly the bathroom.

    Had a 1 night stay in this B&B which is perfectly situated a 10 minute walk away from Guildhall in the center of Derry. Parking was easy (on street) and Kieran (our host) welcomed us and provided loads of information about where to eat - what to see etc etc. We were the last to book so unfortunately had a small room but it was adequate. The bathroom was very small and I had to sit sideways on the loo. That aside, we thought the location, hospitality, price and fantastic breakfast compensated for any small niggles and I would highly recommend Bishops Gate B&B for a short stay in Derry.

    Pillows too thin and soft.

    Breakfast was excellent. The host was outststanding, knowing we only had a 1 night stay he gave us an excellent run down on the best of Derry and guided us were to go and than gave us a lift into the centre of town for dinner. His restaurant recommendation was fantastic.

    The bathroom is tiny, you can barely turn around, there's no Wifi. Walls are thin, so we could hear our neighbors, but it didn't bother us. No staff on-site outside breakfast time.

    Traditional B&B located just outside the walled town center. Free parking on the street, we always found a spot within the same block. Sweet and nicely decorated bedroom. Tasty Irish breakfast is served in the morning. The landlord was happy to share stories of his growing up in Derry.

    The coffee. I hate instant coffee!

    When we arrived we were met by Ciarán, who greeted us warmly and gave us a map of Derry city. He marked recommended places for food and drinks. The house is spotlessly clean and bright and lovely. The bed was really comfortable and we slept so well. Breakfast was freshly made and was wonderful. We had a choice, Ulster fry or continental. We had the fry, it was delicious! There was a table in the dining room with pastries, individual boxes of different cereals, water, orange juice and fruit. Choice of tea or coffee. Freshly made toast. Staff here are lovely. Really friendly and helpful.
