It was okay.

Very nice staff, good location, the room was spacious but in need of a refresh. The bathroom was grubby and in need of a major refurb, dirty shower curtain and overall not nice. I think they were cleaning the carpets on the floor I was on as there was a very damp dirty smell throughout the floor. Don't think I will be going back.

The hotel room itself was nice but the toilet leaked. Also, the parking situation was tricky, partly due to construction, but still tricky nonetheless. The breakfast was worth the money and the bar and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful.

Best hotel for Belfast City Centre

Stayed one night as we were going to a gig at The Limelight Club across the road. Location was ideal for this. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and the whole hotel had a relaxed atmosphere. Nice bar area with additional seating outside. Rooms were comfortable but a possible upgrade to bathroom fixtures and fittings at some point would be good. Everywhere clean and tidy. Breakfast had a range of options and wass tasty and fresh.

One night stay - overall happy.

The staff were lovely and helpful, very nicely located, nice vibes. Would stay again for a one night stay. The only faults were that there was 1 bath towel for 2 people, I had to order more towels. There wasnt any issue doing that but maybe more attention to detail is required. 2 guests, 2 towels. There was also no fan working in the bathroom which led to the whole place steaming up and couldn't clear it. There was a docking station/speaker on the bedside locker that was quite dusty and dirty looking. The bedside locker also had a chunk out of it. But otherwise, we were happy with the stay.
