It was a great experience starting from reservation up to the airport drop. We stayed here for 3 nights for our 10th year anniversary. Reservation was flawless. Been picked up by the Rolls Royce from the airport. Had a great room at the victorian wing. Got full attention from the staff. Everybody was extremely nice and helpful, especially the concierge:...

One of the best hotels in Belfast in my opinion. Pricy but you get what you pay for. the bar with the fireplace is without a doubt the perfect winter hide out. Bedrooms in the old part of the hotel are amazing. I didn't see the new ones. Food and staff also excellent. More

On initial appearance the room design was stunning, although there was a large feature mirror in the room, approx 6ft in height and when the light was turned on it was extremely dusty and a previous resident had wrote "clean me" on the mirror in the dust....

We stayed in this hotel a while back after the new section of the hotel had just opened (September 2010) to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The quality of the service, rooms and food was excellent. Although not cheap, it was worth the money and the package we went for came with a free meal in the restaurant where the food... More

The rooms are beautifully appointed in a classic style with lovely... More

We stayed here for my husband's 30th birthday. We had been allocated a 'Junior Suite' by way of an upgrade. It was located in the Victorian wing and when we were shown the room (which was much smaller than we had expected), we were disappointed as it was very dark, quite worn looking and only had two small rectangular shaped...

We had a wonderful time when I went to Belfast on business and brought my family of wife and 3 small children along for the ride. The hotel could not have been more helpful and the whole experience from check-in and valet parking to breakfast in the room the next morning was fantastic. Spacious rooms , great big bathroom ,...
