First of all, Derry is an amazing city that must be experienced. And what better place to experience it than when staying at Derry City Independent Hostel! Steve, one of the owners, met me when I arrived and showed me on the map where things were that I might be interested in visiting, where the Tesco was, etc. When I... More

What can I say, it's a nice little hostel. I stayed in a mixed 4 bed dorm. It was clean and comfortable as was the kitchen and the common room. Whilst I have nothing to rave about, nor do I have any complaints from my one night stay. Good location.

We loved our stay here at the Derry City Independent Hostel. Our host Kylie was super helpful, friendly, an experienced traveller and quite professional - all qualities that echo through this hostel. Kylie and her husband have thought of many things other hostels overlook, obviously a result of their travel backpacker-background. We stayed at their location aimed at couples around... More

Where to start? Homemade bread in the morning. I loved waking up to the smell of the freshly baked bread. Laptop safe lockers. This is the first time that I have seen these electronic safes in a hostel. You normally only see them in 4 star hotels. Way to go!! Free wifi. Not only free but excellent connection. I was... More

This hostel was pretty groovy. We had a twin room which was pretty small but was fine for us. The rest of the hostel was stunning though. The kitchen was brilliant. It was kind of like a massive designer kitchen with a beautiful big oak table and chairs. Not what you would expect in a hostel at all.It was a... More

this is a great small hostel that has a very quirky vibe. it is decorated with masks, wall hangings, bhudda statues, hand painted indian tables. etc. all brought back from the owners extensive travels. Steve, the manager introduced us to the city over a cup of coffee. Derry had much more worth seeing than we had originally anticipated. We were... More

A nice hostel close to city walls. Friendly staff and rooms clean and tidy. Free tea and toast in the morning.

There are two hostels around the block from each other. I stayed at the newest of the two.The rooms were nice and comfortable. The manager was a really great guy, i had actually experienced a nightmare roommate (actually concerned for my own safety) and I went downstairs and decided to sleep on the couch in the common area. Turned out,... More

We stayed in their extension - another house which seemed to be a carbon-copy of the main/primary hostel - which is on the same block. Our buildling was beautifully and thoughfully decorated (the owners are travellers themselves - they share their photo albums of their adventures in the common area). Each floor (containing 2-3 rooms) had its own bathroom and... More
