Derry Accommodation

Searching for hotels in Derry (United Kingdom) or Derry accommodation?  The town of Derry, or Londonderry, is the fourth largest in Ireland, and is located on the River Foyle, in county Londonderry. It is a small city, with a population of around one hundred thousand, but it has a history that spans around one and a half thousand years, making it an interesting place to visit. In fact, locals say that ‘Derry was a city when Belfast was still a swamp.’
You can fly to the City of Derry Airport, or take a train or bus, and once there, most of the city and its attractions can be reached on foot.
When in Derry, make sure you take in some of the historic sites, like the 17th century city walls, the Guildhall, historic churches and for more recent history, the 1990’s political murals in the area known as Bogside.
There are also plenty of museums in Derry, including the Railway Museum, the Tower Museum, and the Free Derry Museum, to name but a few, so if history and culture is of interest, make sure you contact the tourism office for details and tours.
Derry is also home to Ireland’s largest Halloween celebration, so if you plan to be in the city at the end of October, be sure to join in the festivities. There are also, of course, a range of restaurants and bars, but one of the best to enjoy local music is Peadar O’Donnell’s, on Waterloo Street.
The Travelodge in Derry is very centrally located, near the Guildhall, and is a good choice for accommodation, but there are many other small hotels, ranging from budget friendly to luxurious, so be sure to shop around.
