What guests think

At Da Vinci's Hotel, guests frequently praise the friendly staff, lively bar, and good value, while feedback about rooms and breakfast is mixed, with some updated, comfortable stays contrasted by dated areas, noise, and occasional maintenance or service issues.

The location suits travellers willing to walk 15–20 minutes into the centre or take short taxis, with a riverside path nearby and some industrial views. Parking is straightforward and the restaurant is well liked, though refurbishment and construction have caused occasional disruption. Air conditioning is typically absent and a few reviews note housekeeping or maintenance lapses, even as many guests found the property clean. Expect friendly service, a sociable atmosphere, and variable room and breakfast experiences.

Got a bit noisy on Monday morning with bins and bottles being collected outside but otherwise the room was very quiet. Great location by Derry quay with lovely walks into the town or out along Bay Road nature reserve. Only slight downside was no fridge in the room.

Hotel was dirty from the entry door, lobby, elevator with finger prints and dust everywhere. The room was so old with dirty furnitures, dirty water pot, dirty hair dryer, broken toilet flush, broken bath tub water faucet and no air conditioner. The mattress was old and cheap quality and bed sheet was worn with holes. Hotel needs maintenance and hire worker to clean up public areas, windows, elevator doors and walls. The furnitures need to be updated. Furnitures are the same ones with the photos on website but scratched and chipped with age and upholstery was faded and dirty. The location is away from downtown and restaurants and other attractions. They even gave us a room facing the back of the building overlooking the roof top of next building with debris and trashes. We stayed one night at the end of Nothern Ireland driving tour. It was a terrible last night stay at Nothern Ireland.

If your only choice of hotels in Derry is DaVinci, sleep in your car. First, the hotel is difficult to find. No signage and located behind a strip mall. When we finally arrived there was no offer to assist with luggage. We were given a luggage trolly with flat tires. The condition of the hallway to our room was covered with food scraps and trash. Once we arrived in the room we discovered there was no A/C and it was sweltering. The furniture is extremely dated and the finish was tacky to touch. The drapes were old and dirty. The price for this room was probably triple what it should have been. Finally, there is no coffee available in the room or in the lobby before the restaurant opens. This hotel is in need of a complete makeover.

We were advised that some refurbishment works were happening in the restaurant on our arrival but where told this wouldnt affect us as we were in the opposite side of the hotel. We soon found out early the next morning that this wasnt the case, woken by constant pneumatic drilling that sounded like it was coming through the wall.... on inspection it was..... as it was the bedroom right next door to us that they where drilling in. We went for breakfast, tired, waited for over 10 minutes for someone to arrive to seat us. Then when we were finally seated, our order was taken and left with the kitchen. No-one came to the kitchen to even start to cook the food for another 15 minutes. I asked for sausage, soda and bacon. I got 2 sausages, the tiniest piece of soda bread Ive ever seen and two very small pieces of what I can only describe as fat (which should have been the bacon - it looked think the actual bacon had been removed! Anyway after staying here once before in the past and coming back to have a relaxing stay, it was awful. There are some nice hotels to stay in Derry, I certainly couldn't recommend this one.

The hotel itself was in a nice building. The check-in staff were literally non-existent. When we found someone it was disorganized. We stayed for dinner and I’d rate that a 2 out of 5. If you want deep fried and extremely oily food, eat there. Service was a zero out of five. They bring you an empty water glass with nothing to drink. The whole dinner experience was stomach turning. The room was nice, clean and comfortable. But with a large party down the hall, I wondered if they focus more on events than the sleeping experience of their hotel guests. The checkout staff were warm and friendly.

Room serviced daily and always clean It is also very popular with locals and advise booking the restaurant It’s located about 15 min walk along the river walkway from the centre of Derry but if you don’t want walk taxis are plentiful and cheap If I had any small issue was that we were ground floor and suffered slightly from noise associated with the nearby shops and the bins from the bar There has been lot of money spent on hotel and it shows Special shout out to the restaurant staff and manager Would definately recommend both Derry and this hotel for a stay

It was a good location on the fringes of Derry (only a 15 minute walk and vey clos to the River). Only £13 away by cab from Derry Airport as well. The restaurant and bar(s) were good and very reasonable priced too.

We checked into a Superior room that smelled of drains and wasn’t Superior as shown on the website. We were upgraded FOC to a Studio Apartment (should have been £40). The room had been upgraded, but the finish was terrible. The bathroom pipes were unsightly, the door surround was unfinished and had tile grout plastered all over the hinges. The bedroom had several stains on the couch and the pillow case had a cigarette burn. At breakfast we picked up cold plates and went to the food. Every item in the buffet was Luke warm and when put on a cold plate was stone cold before I started eating it!! Two big positives in the hotel were the bar and the staff. Every member of staff were friendly and helpful. Not a hotel I will be stopping again.

Have stayed at this hotel a few times - love the bar food and the Thai truck outside is fantastic. Rooms are fine, showers are fabulous! The only downside is the breakfast. I’ve found it pretty disappointing the last couple of times I’ve been. It’s literally cereal and fried food - and they always run out of things before the service is over. I would return but won’t book breakfast again.
