ibis budget Belfast City Centre

8/10 Good

"It’s a standard budget hotel… the room smelled a little like body odor initially but leaving the window open helped air that out. The bed was mediocre and only had two very thin, flimsy pillows… but again, you get what you pay for and it’s a solid budget-friendly option"

AC Hotels by Marriott Belfast

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, Titanic and city centre within walking distance. Buffet breakfast excellent. Was there for my mum's 80th birthday and they upgraded her to a suite which was lively. All in, cannot fault the hotel."

The Fitzwilliam Hotel Belfast

10/10 Excellent

"Positives: -- Nice hotel proximal to the train station, multiple shops, and the main city of Belfast -- Very attentive and helpful people at the front desk -- A reasonably spacious and clean room with a very nice bed and great shower Negatives (minor): -- Internet is not very strong (at least in our room) -- Could not figure out the coffee machine -- Electric sockets not ideal"

Slieve Donard

8/10 Good

"Booked the Slieve Dinard for a one night august bank holiday break. Very satisfied with the accommodation, service and food., although I thought the drinks were very expensive."

Hampton by Hilton Belfast City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Brilliant all round. My flight was severely delayed. I messaged the hotel. Everything was sorted for me by Michael. The hotel itself is spotlessly clean, the rooms are well appointed and the breakfast was excellent. It is really convenient for the Grand Central Station and the City Centre."

Maldron Hotel Belfast City

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, excellent location for exploring Belfast. Staff friendly & helpful, great amenities. Would definitely recommend!"

Leonardo Hotel Belfast

10/10 Excellent

"Roadtripping around beautiful Ireland we spent a couple nights at the Leonardo and really enjoyed the property. It's always nice to have a bar and restaurant on site. We met up w local friends and had a lovely dinner there. Room was nice and clean. Remote parking wasn't too far. Good location. Just a few minute taxi ride to the dock for Aran Island tours and the Leonardo was the pick up point for our Black Taxi tour."
