Hôtels près de Boom Hall, Londonderry

En arrivant, et tout au long du séjour, le personnel a été avenant et polis. C'est vraiment le point fort. Pour ce qui est de la chambre, il y avait un coin où les araignées avaient pris le contrôle. En fait, il y avait une immense toile et plusieurs araignées. L'ensemble du mobilier et du décors est vieux. Les chasses d'eau des toilettes sont inefficaces, les tapis sont défréchis, la douche est inéficace... bref, ce n'est que quelques exemples pour montrer que ça n'a pas été mis à jour depuis des dizaines d'années. Côté inclusions, sachez que juste la piscine est accessible aux enfants. La salle d'entrainement est grande mais plus de la moitié des équipement électriques ne sont pas fonctionnels. Les saunas, salles chaudes et spas sont propres. Les heures d'ouverture des équipements (7am et 8am) sont insuffisantes. C'est beaucoup trop tard si vous y allez en famille ou par affaires. Ils ne permettent pas la livraison étant donné qu'il y a un restaurant sur place. Ce qui est n'importe quoi étant donné que l'hotel est au milieu de nulle part. De plus, il n'y a pas de réfrigérateur dans les chambres. Tout ça ensemble fait en sorte que c'Est très peu convivial pour les familles. Les lits sont durs et les oreillés semblent en carton. Nous avons réservé avec nos points récompenses pour en profiter. J'aurais préféré utiliser mes points ailleurs que de les utiliser à cet endroit. Aucune reconnaissance quant au statut marriott non plus...

Bel endroit à proximité du centre ville et la salle de spectacle St Columbs Hall . Merci à Emmet pour son chaleureux accueil. À bientôt pour une nouvelle visite de Londonderry et un passage au Lawrence

L'hôtel est très central, juste au sein de la ville, et les petits biscuits et le chocolat sont bienvenus. Les enfants disent que c'est très délicieux. La chambre est relativement petite et le service de petit déjeuner britannique est très bon.

We booked this for two nights at the end of our minimoon exploring the Causeway coast - what we were hoping for was a calming spa retreat in a peaceful setting, what we got was more family fun camp, as a result we came away quite downhearted about it, but if you're looking for a family getaway it would be perfect. (I don't think it helped we had stayed in some amazing places in the preceding days, and arriving here didn't compare) On arrival, no staff were around to check us in and we had to wait quite a long time. The greeting we then got was very business-like and grumpy, rather than friendly and welcoming. We had treated ourselves for our minimoon and booked a suite, which was spacious, but felt dated and in need of a serious refresh - in particular the bathroom - and was very hot. There were no nice extras or finishing touches. In the corridors there were kids running around unattended everywhere. We ate in the Coach House Brasserie both nights, we'd describe it as average. Breakfast was served in Courtyard restaurant, and was exactly what you would expect from a hotel breakfast - perfectly acceptable (though some staff were grumpy and rude) Our main reason for staying at the resort was the Spa, we were hoping for a relaxing end to our minimoon. On arrival at the spa things were looking good, while it was smaller than anticipated, we had the place to ourselves (though the steam room was out of action)...turned out that was only because it was lunchtime. It was soon filled with lots of children, again unattended, splashing and screaming and was the complete opposite of relaxing to the point we actually had to get up and leave. We appreciate it may have been the start of the school holidays, and families need to have somewhere to go, particularly in the rain, but if the pool is open to families, it doesn't feel right to be selling it as a spa, it's just a family splash pool. Also worth saying that young kids were using the jacuzzi and sauna without adult supervision which could be very dangerous. Maybe it would be worth having ”family times” and ”adult only times” to help alleviate this? We did end on a mini-high, as we had booked massages - both of our experiences with the treatment rooms/staff were great and we couldn't fault them, so big well done to that team :) Checking out we had a letter under the door advising us to pay on way to breakfast because of how busy it gets, so we did, then when we checked out later (when it was supposedly very busy) there were 4-6 staff behind the desk and not another customer to be seen...odd.

Stayed here for two nights. Check in was quick and the receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Room was a good size, clean, as was the bathroom. At around 5am each morning some sort of heating system??? kicks in which starts off with a loud persistant knocking sound which lasts about 5 minutes. Very strange and it woke us both mornings. Breakfast was lovely with a fabulous selection of hot food and continental items. We ate both nights at the hotel restaurant. First night we had a 10 minute wait at the entrance for a table. The restaurant was catering to what looked like a tour group but wasn't overly busy. A member of staff (guy wearing glasses in a dark suit) saw us waiting, ignored us and walked passed several times. We were eventually seated by a lovely staff member who couldn't have been more accomodating. Had afternoon tea, was tasty but wasn't overly impressed as the afternoon tea advertised was not what we received. All in all it was a nice, comfortable stay but don't think we would return.
