PAY WHAT YOU WANT DEALS...
Beds for a penny?
We invite you to come and make our wee hostel your base for exploring Northern Ireland and Donegal.
Check out the DEALS section at the top of this page.
What's the deal? We have decided to let you pay us whatever you think your stay was worth or whatever you can afford. The only condition to this deal is that you stay for a minimum of 2 nights. We want to encourage you to stay in Derry. You can stay up to 4 nights on this deal.
How does it work? When you arrive we will give you an envelope with a short welcome and introduction to Derry in it. You can give us the envelope back at the end of your stay and 'tip' us what you think it was worth to you or whatever you can afford.
This deal will run up until Easter and then through the winter from October until next Easter. The deal is only available on dorm beds for just now.
The only condition to this deal is that if you decide to stay only one night, we reserve the right to charge you the normal nightly rate for that one night.
We are putting on thids deal to try and encourage you to stay longer in Derry.

You are, of course, welcome to just book the number of nights you want and pay the regular hostelworld rate if you want to.

Guidebook reviews
'Every hostel should strive to engender the warm vibe that Steve and Kylie have created here... fun and funky.'
Lonely Planet 2010
'With so much imagination, effort and expense invested into this hostel, it's little wonder that crowds flock to fill this hostels beds year after year. Book ahead.'
Lets Go Ireland 2007
'Original player Derry City Independent Hostel is where you should go first. Be warned, you may get caught in the Derry Vortex and never want to leave.'
MTV Ireland 2006
Here's what The Guardian newspaper had to say about us...
'Not far from the Derry City walls, this unassuming hostel has a trick or two up its sleeve. The dining room, for instance, has been transformed by the globe-trotting owners into a little piece of old Bombay complete with low tables, wall hangings and sundry Indian exotica garnered in backstreet markets. The prices are sub-continental too...'
So there you have it ' a piece of old Bombay' in Derry City and beds for a penny...
Whats not to like..?
Must see in Derry.. Political Murals, Bloody Sunday Memorial, Free Derry Museum, City Walls, Tower Museum, Irish Traditional Music every night, etc. etc.
Must see close to Derry.. Giants Causeway, Dunluce Castle, Mussenden Temple , etc...
Must see in Donegal.. with a car.. Malin head, Grinan Aileach, (2000 year old ring fort , 20 minutes away, Glenveigh National Park, coastal villages like Moville and Buncrana, etc...
