Our award-winning hostel is suitable for all kinds of travellers and is located in the heart of the city we love so well. Famous for its elegant lounge with cosy fireplace and grand piano! Fully renovated in 2013 with new electric showers, modern kitchen and Super-Fast Internet . 'Central, comfortable and as friendly as they come' according to Lonely Planet. #1 rated on TripAdvisor & Rick Steves!

'Cead Mile Failte' (pronounced Kead Meela FallCha) which means '100,000 welcomes' to our award-winning Hostel which is top-rated by guidebooks and ideally situated in our historic city-centre.
'Clean, Safe, Central & Full of history & local culture'. Owned and managed by travellers, we designed this hostel to make you feel at home and to provide you with the best stay in one of the most historic cities in Europe.

'Derry Palace' Hostel is within walking distance of pretty much everything you need and has a great location for enjoying our historic walled-city, being only 5/10 minutes walk from the Bus Station, 1 minute from the supermarket and right round the corner from the action in the best musical pubs, coffee shops, political murals & museums.

For 10 great years, Derry-born Tour-Guide Steve McPhilemy and his travel-loving team have provided a 'LegenDerry' welcome. We have even become a wee bit famous throughout Northern Ireland, featuring on National TV last year as the fun & quality accommodation located in the centre of Derry.

Our lovely hostel is in a beautiful georgian townhouse that was built in 1832. We invite our fellow travellers to relax and enjoy a film in the TV/DVD room or read a book from our extensive Travel-Library in front of our cosy fireplace. We burn peat or turf, the traditional Irish fuel. It fills the room with sweet aroma of the countryside. Very few hostels carry on this welcoming tradition.

We recently fully renovated our property with new electric showers (they are warm 24//7 guaranteed) & a nice modern kitchen. We also carefully restored the most popular feature of our hostel - the glorious 'common room', which boasts a grand piano and the most comfortable sofas in the country! A perfect chill-out zone for individuals & groups.

We take great pride in ensuring our guests have an excellent experience.

Our features include individual lockers, towels, linen and duvets, free coffee and tea all day,

To enhance your journey we offer free maps and advice and free access to guide books from across the world. There's also free luggage storage.
