The hotel is great value for pricing in Belfast. Definitely recommend staying here!

    Interior design is lovely and a bit different, which we really liked. Our room was a good size and very comfortable. We had bath robes and Rituals toiletries are also included, which is a lovely touch. There was fresh bottled water in the room each day too. The bar area is comfortable and relaxing. The breakfast was fab each morning and all staff are really helpful, warm and friendly. Really close to the beautiful Botanic Gardens and the brilliant Ulster Museum.
