Could do with some updating. Separate heating controls for each room would be welcome. Otherwise a pleasant stay.

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.

won’t stay here again and wouldn’t recommend
We were firstly assigned a shabby worn room at the rear above the kitchen services with noise of extractor fans and drab view. Requested a move, which the helpful reception staff assisted with, and moved us to the refurbished 2nd floor overlooking the car park which was much better. Generally the staff were very pleasant except for the breakfast staff who didn’t seem to want to be there… after a miserable greeting dropped cutlery on the restaurant floor and then put it onto our table ! Disgusting ! facing the exit / entrance to the kitchen and washing up area which was really noisy and very un-relaxing. The breakfast was really average as was the service and found meat product in the warmer marked soda bread etc. not good if you’re vegetarian ! Probably in need of more upgrades and better attitude in the restaurant area thank goodness we opted to eat out in the evening.

Good hotel, disappointing breakfast!
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.

50th anniversary
We found the Da Vinci hotel very comfortable and on the whole staff were very friendly. Michael the bar man went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The occasion was our 50th wedding anniversary. We definitely intend to return. The one sour note was that the girl on reception appeared to be having a bad day and it showed in her attitude

Our room was at the rear with a view over the air conditioning units. Saying that, we only slept in our room. The public areas had a lot more personality, with some lovely stained glass and interesting features in the bar/restaurant. Very fiendly and helpful staff, a good hotel for a visit to Londonderry.

Nice hotel with big rooms but no AC
Nice, big room with a bath. Hotel was about a 25-minute walk from the centre of Derry. It seemed like a long way at first, but it's quite a pleasant walk along the riverside. The only problem was that the weather was quite warm during our stay and there is no AC in the room.

Golf trip
Had a lovely couple of nights stay. We were playing golf at the Foyle Golf Course so the location was perfect, 10 mins away. Beautiful Hotel and the bar was lovely. Rooms were very nice and the shower was amazing. Very friendly and helpful staff. Only think I would mark down on was the breakfast. We payed £12 for one sausage,one bacon one egg and it wasn't even that great. Needless to say we didn't eat there the second morning. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay.

Nice hotel
Girl on front desk was great, very friendly and helpful. We ate in the bar which was just ok. It was busy so we got a table away in a corner so not much atmosphere. Choice on bar menu was just ok, but food was fine. If I was staying again I'd book into the restaurant/bistro where menu looks much better. Room was fine, clean, comfortable. Breakfast was good. I would stay there again.
