Hastings Everglades

We stayed at a busy time of the year yet the staff where very prompt and helpfull. They ordered us taxis to and from the town, and where happy to bring drinks to order down to the bedroom.

I think that the prices of drink and food where a bit over-priced. Also, I was disappointed that breakfast was not included in the price, as it was a high room rate for the area.

I was very impressed with the friendliness & efficieency of the staff. we did not have a remote control for the TV in our room but it arrived within 5 minutes of informing reception. I liked the open lounge & bar area that were very homely & relaxing with excellent decor & funishings as well as open fires.Bar food was reasonably priced & of very good quality. The breakfast buffet was very good. There ia ample parking at the hotel 7 it was very tranquil at night although only 5 mins by car from the city centre. We were very impressed & will definitely return to the Hastings Everglades Hotel. Highly recommended for business or pleasure. Also very children friendly.

The staff were unusually friendly and helpful - especially on reception. The superior rooms were spacious with large and comfortable beds. The bar and lounge area were relaxing. It was good to be in quiet area and close to countryside but only 5 mins by car into the centre of Derry. Taxis only cost £3.50 into town if you didn't want to drive.

It didn't matter once you were inside, but the external architecture of building was resoundingly unattractive. A shame there is no pool. We had a good deal for room prices, but the bar is over-priced.

We were welcomed when we checked in, and the service was excellant and unobtrusive during our stay. Our room was comfortable and relaxing.

The room was great; the beds were huge! Everything was very clean. Reception staff were helpful over mix-up about bill.

1. When we arrived, at 2.30pm (with an hour to get washed, dressed and travel to a wedding on the other side of the city) the room was not ready.2. Upon checkout, the hotel computer showed that we had not paid for our room - however receptionist was v pleasant and sorted it out.

Friendliness of the staff, quality of food especially breakfast

No air conditioning in the bedroom - it was very hot but the weather was exceptionally humid

the hotel staff were very accommodating and provided an excellence service. the facilities provided were also extremely satifactory.

our bedroom was very clean however we noticed that our shower in the ensuite bathroom had not been cleaned down properly and there was a hair left in the pile of towels.

the staff and nice bed

too warm and noisy

The hotel is ideally situated to explore the City of Derry as well as other visitor attractions in both Northern Ireland (Guiants Causeway/Bushmills/Portstewart/Portrush) and the Republic. The staff are very, very friendly and I heartily suggest this hotel is considered if you are looking for affordable luxury. The rooms are excellent and if you want a monster breakfast............ !! Full Marks to James and his team, a superbly run hotel, that is why we stayed for another night.

No sweetners at breakfast (for diabetics)

Front desk and foyer staff were superb.Lounge entertainment was amonst best ever experienced.

Fortunately there was a "special" dinner for 2 offer -otherwise regular food prices were excessive

the peace and quiet, not to far for city centre

Good value, very pleasant stay, friendly staff, easily acessible. The foyer entertainment on Saturday evening was enjoyable and not overbearing. overall a pleasant stay and value for money.
