Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My daughter booked myself and her dad a night away in January, We were really excited but so disappointed. The rooms were dated nothing special, we had a 3 course meal which wasn't great, the soup tasted like it came from a packet, could not eat the main meal as the meat was all fat and the whole dinner tasted like salt. The The hotel was frezzing. The bar man was the best part of our stay, he was a lovely guy making loads of cocktail for us which we needed to stay warm 😄 we did say when leaving about dinner which they refunded the money for, but I was still annoyed for my daughter who thought she was buying us something special. Think such a big hotel could do far better

Excellent romantic stay in Derry with my wife. Marc at the Bar was excellent and very helpful. Kai in the restaurant was a brilliant server and ensured we had an amazing meal. Would definitely recommend dining in the Grill Restaurant, fantastic food and staff.

Fantastic rooms, fantastic service, fantastic staff and fantastic food. If you are ever visiting Derry, this is the place you want to stay. Complete comfort and the staff will bend over backwards to help you. Bar was well stocked and breakfast service always brilliant. Its the only place I stay at now when in Derry.

Valentines package very few people in the ballroom for it and now I know why.The food was some of the worst I’ve had anywhere we didn’t have a menu choice and what was served was tasteless and really not edible we left before the band started as the music was so depressing other couples left before us really poor value for money and just dreadful honestly I want a refund money down the drain. Even Basil Fawlty could have done better

Dear Happiness16149402269 Thank you for taking the time to review your experience of the Everglades Hotel. I am disappointed to read this review of your valentines experience. We do encourage our guests to give us their feedback at the time so that if there is an issue, we can quickly resolve to create a more positive experience. I did speak with most guests on the evening in the ballroom and never received any negative feedback about the food so I am confused by these comments. I do apologise however that you feel let down by the experience. Warmest Regards Sam Denning General Manager

Stayed recently at the Everglades Hotel, could not recommend this hotel enough. Friendly staff went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. We had an evening meal in the restaurant and breakfast the next morning could fault the food was beautiful. Will definitely be back at the Everglades.

Very poor to be honest, food was poor, room was poor, overpriced for the service that was given and generally not a great experience but it is what it is, plenty of other local hotels offering a far superior service.

My partner and I stayed in the hotel for one night in January. It was my birthday and there was a lovely surprise in our room when we arrived. Delicious cake bites. Thank you :) The hotel is beautifully decorated and we were very pleased with our room, especially the enormous comfortable bed. We didn't leave the hotel. We had drinks in the Library Bar and enjoyed the pianist who played all evening. The bar staff were lovely, in particular Finn. An old school gentleman with charm. While we were enjoying our drinks, we saw him bring coats to a table of ladies. He chatted and helped them into their coats. He was so charming and attentive - something you rarely see. We decided to just have plates in the bar rather than dinner in the restaurant and they did not disappoint. Pork belly, fish sticks, cheese bites and a bowl of fries. All delicious and just filled us enough. Breakfast was good except for the soda bread and potato bread which we both found very dry. The rest of the hot breakfast was great and the ambience with classical music playing was very relaxing for a Sunday morning. We were very pleased with our stay and it was very good value for money. A spa at this hotel would be a great addition.
