Location was excellent, breakfast was good, host was friendly and welcoming. Parking our car was convenient on the street. Host communicated by email ahead of time so we knew what to expect

Our room was on the 3rd floor and no elevator, so we had to carry our luggage up the steps. Not a problem but might be a concern for some. When we arrived the door was locked. Host had sent a message with the passcode, but we didn't see it until arrival.

Location: It is very close to the city centre, bus station, and 18 minutes walk to the train station. Breakfast: I did not take the breakfast as I had to go to university in the morning. However, the manager was kind to offer me a coffee before I leave and even called me a taxi. It was very kind of him. The staff were lovely and very friendly too. Room: The room is small and suitable for one person. It is an en-suite bedroom with shower. The view was not pleasing, so I had the curtain closed most of the time. The bedroom was warm and comfortable.

Upon arriving at my bedroom, I noticed some dust and hair on the floor and sink. I could not use the kettle and the cups, as these were all dusty and dirty too. The kettle was dirty, as if it were not cleaned properly. I just could not use any of it.

Given a code to enter building when I wanted. Full & friendly help from the proprietor how to enter building with given code and my key 🔑 code as hanging up with name beside it. The Duvet was a feather one & nice and heavy for warmth & comfort. There was an extension plug on the table beside the bed. 🛌 Good coffee & Tea. Breakfast room clean & cosy. Continental with lots of choice of cereal & bread 🍞 blueberries and seeds for cereal. Fresh Greek yoghurt and good coffee served. Proprietor friendly. All in all it was very quality for price paid.

View outside the window.🪟

Check in process was easy. Kieran contacted me prior to our stay with Instructions for check in and also provided parking options. Location was great for us. Breakfast was good, no cooked breakfast option but plenty of cereal, bread, fruit etc to choose from and coffee was good kieran was very friendly and attentive. Really enjoyed our stay.will definitely return

Not a criticism just highlighting that We were located in top floor I did nit mind this at all but could be a struggle for older folks or someone with mobility issues..

We were staying just one full day so the location was perfect to get around all the sights of the old town easily. The breakfast was ample with a good selection that included gluten free options. Our room had a great view over the wall and surrounding streets. The beds were comfy and the bathroom warm. There is a cosy sitting room.

Being a twin, it was a bit squeezy but we managed. The perfect location comes with a caveat - it is a big walk uphill from the bus station. Lots of stairs in the property so don't book it if you are bringing heavy bags.

From the moment we stepped inside Number 8, we felt at home. Kieran is an excellent host and a warm and funny guy. Our room was gorgeous, lovely attention to details in keeping with the period house, the bed was so comfortable 😍 The bathroom was roomy and had a great shower. Breakfast was ideal, loads of good coffee, and plenty of butter😉. The location just inside the walls is perfect for exploring the city, which is well worth visiting. I can't recommend here highly enough. Thanks a million Kieran!!

I only wish we could have stayed longer and used it as a base for Donegal.

Fabulous location , love this area of the city, and the Playhouse theatre is a few doors away. So central and close to the Derry walls. Lovely comfy room and the family room had a lovely single bed in a corner of its own for my teenager ! Great continental breakfast and chats with the owner Kieran. Would highly recommend a stay at No 8. Make sure you visit the Bogside and the Free Derry Museum !

The parking is a funny business altogether, only 1 hour allowed so no long term parking outside. Handy enough to drop off bags and collect in morning but I would figure out long term parking close nearby as it can become a hindrance to your plans. Derry is a compact city so shouldn't be an issue. Just be aware. 😜

The room was nice, with a nice ensuite, TV and kettle, and the bed was comfy. The breakfast was nice, served from 9-10am at weekends, which is a bit late for me personally but I imagine suits most people

I wanted to leave my bag when I arrived before check in, but nobody replied to my text or booking.com message, I don't think there is anywhere to leave luggage though if the staff aren't around - so I dont think it would have been possible anyway

Prime location in the heart of Derry. This beautifully restored historic home keeps its old charm together modern comfort. Thoughtfully renovated to preserve its original features, it’s tastefully decorated throughout. Peaceful and exceptionally comfortable stay, complete with a wholesome breakfast and a warm, welcoming host.

The room was on the smaller side, but to be fair this was clearly communicated ahead of time, so there were no surprises.

Right in the centre of Derry with the Derry walls just outside the front door. Continental breakfast was great, lots of cereals, fruit, yoghurt, tea, coffee and various white and brown bread. Kieran was a fantastic host. Full of information about the city.

Well, it’s a small point. The room we had was on top floor which had a lot of stairs. I should have asked for a lower floor as my wife has some mobility issues. I am sure if I had asked, Kieran would have put us in a lower room.
