Hilton announced the signing of DoubleTree by Hilton Derry-Londonderry on the 2nd of September, marking the brand’s debut in Northern Ireland’s second biggest city, as part of a franchise agreement with the longstanding owners of the City Hotel.

Located in the centre of one of Ireland’s oldest cities, the hotel, which will be managed by Focus Hotels, will offer guests sweeping views of the River Foyle, a historic waterway that has been integral to the region’s trade and transport for centuries. The hotel is ideally located for exploring the area’s rich heritage, with key landmarks such as the striking Guildhall, Tower Museum, and the 17th-century City Walls – all within a five-minute walk. Adjacent to the hotel is the Quayside Shopping Centre, providing convenient access to shopping and dining options.

For those looking to explore further afield, the hotel is within 5km of the Irish Border, allowing for easy access to County Donegal, part of the world-renowned Wild Atlantic Way. 

Set to open in 2025 following an extensive refurbishment, the 158-room hotel will feature a bar and restaurant, ballroom, seven meeting rooms, onsite parking and a wellness club with swimming pool, making it the ideal base for business and leisure travellers.   

Graham Dodd, managing director, development UK & Ireland, Hilton, said, “Our debut in the city marks a significant step in Hilton’s further expansion across Northern Ireland. With rising tourism demand in the region, we’re excited to be working closely with Focus Hotels to introduce the warm hospitality that DoubleTree by Hilton is known for globally, enhancing the city’s appeal as a must-visit destination for domestic and international travellers alike.”

Greg McCartney, chairperson, City Hotel, said, “We are delighted to welcome the global Hilton brand to the city. The new hotel marks an important milestone in the city’s evolution, enhancing its reputation as a key destination for tourism and business.”

Devin Grosse, CEO of Focus Hotels, said, “This property is a real treasure in the city’s dynamic hospitality and tourism market, and we couldn’t be more excited to continue our longstanding partnership with Hilton. It is a true pleasure to be part of this project, and we look forward to bringing it to life for the hotel’s forward-thinking owners.”
