The Everglades Hotel in Derry has unveiled the results of a €118,000 renovation which includes a complete facelift of The Library Bar, featuring new mirrored panelling, marble tables and re-upholstered furniture to reflect a new colour scheme of dark blues, rusts and florals.
The ground floor has been completely re-carpeted and The Grill Restaurant also has a new look with re-upholstered floral furniture, walls, woodwork and natural planting to reflect the new brown and green colour scheme.
It matches the hotel’s surroundings, offering views over the Prehen wooded area, while newly-installed ornate blinds and antique paintings complete the stunning upgrade.
The renovations continue in the spacious Grand Ballroom and its bar and lounge areas, with a feature ceiling added and new soft furnishings.
The four business suites have been upgraded with new IT capabilities, upholstery and painting whilst painting has also been refreshed in the hotel’s 64 bedrooms.
The Everglades has also launched a reimagined visual identity to reflect its position as a leader in the city, attracting tourists and being a firm favourite with the domestic market.
“We are absolutely delighted to reveal the results of our most recent renovation programme,” said Sam Denning, General Manager.
“This year has been a busy one for The Everglades, and for the city of Derry, as we’ve seen an increase in foreign travel to the area and the domestic market remains strong.
“The completion of the new-look comes as we are gearing up for the busy summer period.
“And whilst we cater for our international visitors, our local guests were very much in mind when we were planning the renovations. “We’re proud to provide the finest hospitality with an excellent food offering, using the very best of local provenance which is reflected across our seasonal menus.
“We also have a wonderful array of local artists providing entertainment every weekend, and they are loved by our local and international guests alike.”
