The room was spacious and clean and the shower was excellent. The staff were very helpful and no request was too much trouble for them. The range of foods offered for breakfast were extensive and included traditional cooked breakfast, cereals, yoghurt, fresh fruit and a varieties of tea,coffee and fruit juice. The hotel is only a 20 min walk from Belfast City Centre and a 5 min walk from the University and Botanical Gardens. There are a number of restaurants nearby and can thoroughly recommend Villa Italia, a 10 min walk away. Would not hesitate to book another stay here on our next visit to Belfast.
