A DERRY hotel – forced to evacuate staff and patrons during last weekend’s ‘reckless’ bomb attack – has been named as the second best in the UK and among the top in Europe, according to TripAdvisor.
Bishop’s Gate Hotel has once again featured in the annual TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards
The Bishop Street venue placed second in the overall UK hotel category, while at a European level it was ranked 15th.
The hotel was also 12th in the UK Best Service award category.
Belfast’s Tara Lodge featured 11th in the overall UK rankings.
Bishop’s Gate Hotel managing director, Ciaran O’Neill said they are thrilled to feature in the awards for a third consecutive year.
“Last year, Bishop’s Gate Hotel took the number three spot in the UK category, so it is great to be second on this coveted list,” Mr O’Neill said.
“The fact that the UK list is compiled on the basis of reviews from individuals who have stayed and shared in the Bishop’s Gate experience is really encouraging.
“Bishop’s Gate has a commitment to excellence at its core, and our amazing team strive to exceed customer expectations at every occasion.
“This accolade shows that their dedication, enthusiasm and expertise is recognised and appreciated by visitors.
“We are committed to delivering a genuine welcome to all of our guests and we aim to ensure every visit is special, whether it is a formal occasion such as a wedding or simply friends enjoying lunch or afternoon tea in The Gown Restaurant,” he added.
Bishop’s Gate Hotel opened its doors in March 2016 and was recently listed in the 45th Anniversary Edition of the prestigious Ireland’s Blue Book.
The hotel also featured in The Irish Times – ‘100 Best Places to Stay in Ireland’ and was voted ‘Hideaway of the Year’ in the Georgina Campbell hospitality guide.
