Fine for a sleepover but avoid breakfast

The Best Western Plus White Horse is a decent enough hotel from most respects - I was perfectly satisfied with our room. What let it down was breakfast. We were asked to choose a time for breakfast as they need to plan the throughput of guests when busy, which seemed a reasonable rationale. However, when we went to breakfast we found that the restaurant was almost empty - definitely not what I'd call busy. I counted 4 staff manning the restaurant while there were only a maximum of 8 tables occupied, and they still couldn't keep up. Both the cold and hot buffet tables were badly depleted - the cold table didn't have any glasses for the fruit juices. The fly crawling over the cold buffet put me off its unprotected offerings. The hot table didn't have a great selection - no grilled tomatoes or potato bread, and the black pudding was so overdone that when I tried cutting it a lump broke off and shot off my plate. Neither table had enough serving spoons; the hot only had two spoons which guests had to use among all the pans - heaven help any vegans wanting to sample the mushrooms or baked beans with spoons covered in bits of egg and black pudding.

Great to be back.

At least the third time we have stayed here, though it must be 7 or 8 year’s since our last visit. Friday afternoon/evening in the reception area very busy with an event that had been rearranged from the previous weekend. Restaurant very busy, but calm and very competent service. Friday evening noise in the corridor where our room was situated, was bordering on the extreme, Saturday evening, the complete opposite. Restaurant food good value and reasonable menu. Breakfast was tasty and again well worth it. Overall a very enjoyable experience and we didn’t even mention the swimming pool or spa!!!

Enjoyed our stay

It was a lovely hotel to stay at. Quiet in the evenings and far enough from the city but close enough as well. Staff were lovely. Food was great. Breakfast was a combo of cooked full irish and continental. The room was a bit stuffy and dated and super hot till we found a way to turn off the heating. The pool and sauna and hot tub was lovely the hot tub was a 15 pound charge per person. And it was outside which was absolutely lovely. It might be an idea to say there is a charge for the hot tub on your description of the hotel. But it was a lovely stay despite the room being stuffy and dated.

2 adults 3 children stayed for one night for the Halloween celebrations in Derry. Location was excellent, 10min drive from the hustle and bustle of the busy city centre. Upon arrival (we arrived early) our room wasnt ready but we were allowed to use the pool and facilities which was brilliant for the kids. Swim done, our room was ready and we were allowed to check-in 2 hours early. Superb. Staff were friendly throughout the hotel and more than helpful. We dined in the hotel that evening, food was grand and service was excellent. Next morning, breakfast was basic but very tasty and as much as you wanted to set you up for the day. Pros - staff, cleanliness of the rooms, comfort of the beds Cons - hotel is slightly dated & the water in the pool was a tad cold I would definitely stay here again!
