Derry City Independent Hostel Reviews

The staff were really nice, welcoming, and very helpful. The hostel is small and cosy with a friendly vibe. The living room is quite funky, basically you sit on cushions on the floor and eat off low tables. The only bad thing is that the place is hard to find - the sign outside the front is pretty small. But otherwise good, I'd stay here again.

We found this hostel very enjoyable. The staff and other people were very friendly. It's located right in the heart of Derry, a short walk down the street from the bars/pubs/restaurants and of course, the Free Derry wall and other historic sights. The rooms were decent, and the beds some of nicest we had our entire trip. We were treated to cereal/toast/etc in the large kitchen area in the basement, and had a chance to talk with other people. I highly recommend this hostel to anyone.

God hostel but the character needs a push up!

Nothing to complain. We had clean room, free linen, great location, staff always helping. We could leave our baggage after checking out without fee. If you stay in Derry, I reccomend staying in City Independent.

A nice place to stay, cosy and clean and really friendly people.Easy to find from the city centre. I was comfortable and would stay again!

This hostel is great! It feels like walking into a home. They were incredibly friendly, helpful and chilled out. They even invited us to join them in the pub - a proper Irish welcome! It's clean, has cool decor and there's a lovely sitting room with TV. There's free internet too. really interesting people, 2 minute walk from major pubs, restaurants and shops. Free tea and coffee. Also, there were some Coco Pops in the kitchen for breakfast! Amazing =]

Fantastic, relaxed and fun vibe in the heart of Derry City. Very helpful staff and had a great time doing the tours in the area, best hostel in Ireland for me by far!

Really friendly and relaxed hostel. Met some good people and quickly felt at home here.

Great hostel. Have stayed here twice now. Lovely, informative and friendly staff. Great location for exploring Derry. Clean rooms, kitchen and toilets :-) :-)

This was definitey the best hostel we stayed in during our NI-Trip! The staff was very helpful and pointed us to different tours, pubs etc. They arranged a cocktail-/pub-night and the next morning they made pancakes!! Awesome!

The staff were 2 nice girls who did their best to make you have a nice stay

The staff was very helpful, guiding us where to eat, find the cash machine, best places to park, and where the tours and sights were. The hostel was in in need of repairs, specifically, the kitchen sink and counter was seriously damaged, but we were told that repairs were to be done in the next week to replace the counter.

Nice staff.exellent kitchen,close to everything.One of the best hostels i have been too!

Best Hostel on our trip through Scotland and Ireland. Stayed one extra night. Awesome friendly staff, Bathrooms cleaner than a 5Star Hotel/At Home. Comfortable beds with real sheets. Nice dining room, full functional and equipped kitchen, free parking in front of the hostel. Always again! Greetings from Germany/ Grüße aus Deutschland!
