Hotel in Belfast

“Excellent place to stay we but you do need transport . The local village has a great pub and plenty of places to eat - highly recommended”

“I cannot rave about this hostel enough. It was cosy, clean, and the perfect amount of social. The kitchen is large and easy to cook in and all of the little touches that Erika has added really make it feel like a home away from home. Highly recommmend!”

“I recently sold a property through UPS, they were amazing! my first time selling a property and they made the experience smooth sailing, first class communication, explaining every move, I would truly recommend UPS 100%. THANK YOU UPS LISBURN ROAD.”

“Absolutely pristine and delightful. A MUST book. My sister and I came for just a night and the host was lovely. The walk way was candle lit. She made us tea upon arrival, complete with shortbread and treats. Everything was 5 star hotel standards from the smallest detail like the heated towel rack, to the extravagant breakfast. It's all the charm of a B&B with the privacy and perfection of a hotel. Breakfast was incredible. I am a part time vegan, full time vegetarian and my sister is paleo so we can be picky. But, the host customized the menu items for us. The view from the breakfast table is rolling hills with charming cottages. Everything was locally sourced - the Rhubarb jam from the garden (incredible!) the yogurt from local jersey cows, etc. This B&B was the highlight of our entire Ireland and N. Ireland trip. We cannot recommend this more. We're telling our friends and family. So grateful for this hidden gem, we certainly hope to return!”

“F5 set the highest standard for letting agents across Belfast. We have rented with them for 2 years, and at every point they have gone above and beyond to support us. Every maintenance or repair issue, of which there were few, were attended to quickly and professionally. The team were always friendly and responsive, taking a personal approach which clearly demonstrated their interest in the wellbeing of their clients. Truly the best experience I have had during my 10 years of renting in Belfast. I would absolutely recommend F5 to any renters or landlords out there who are looking for an excellent service - I haven’t encountered any agency who do a better job. Sending our sincere thanks and appreciation to the team!”

“James and Mark worked hard to get our the property sold and were able to guide us through the process with a gentle but assured manner. They gave us sound advice when required and went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly and that the sale was completed as scheduled. I would thoroughly recommend James Dugan Estates to anyone who has a property to sell and have no hesitation in giving them 5 stars.”

“Olive and Roger are thoughtful, considerate and very pleasant hosts. The rooms are nicely thought out and equipped. Breakfast was very tasty! The road is semi-busy, particularly at rush hour and trucks go by in the early morning, so it's not as quiet as the neighborhood seems like it should be. But much quieter than in the city centre! Many eateries within a 10-minute walk. The walk into city center is straightforward.”

“Came across the coffee shop last year and hoped to have the occasion to stay which happened this week. Very warm welcome in the driving rain. Nicely appointed rooms with clever touches; good water pressure and comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast and delicious coffee. Requested a room at the back and were very happy with the calm and quiet. Highly recommended.”

“One of the most charming B&B, I've ever stayed in. Stanley, the owner, welcomed us when we arrived at night. He's a nice and lovely man with great tips on things to see in the area. The room was clean and the decoration was beautiful. We loved it so much that we booked another time. Really a great and quiet place to stay when in Ireland. Well situated too.”

“My favourite place to stay in Belfast! Absolutely fantastic staff. So friendly and welcoming and little touches like this that you would never get from some of the big city center hotels. Always enjoy my stay in Tara Lodge.”

“Awesome venue with amazing staff. Was at my cousins wedding, but was late in getting my rsvp, so wasn't going to be having dinner. They were going to set an extra table for just us, but fitted us in, as some people didn't make it. They went out if their way to make us feel welcome”

“This was my first time at Streamvale pods and I thought it was amazing. Everything was provided for us and the pod was neat and clean. It was so cozy and relaxing I could’ve stayed for a week! The hot tub was all ready for us arriving and they also gave us free hot chocolate supplies. As well as this we were provided with milk, orange juice, yogurts, wheaten bread, soda bread, oats and wee spreads such as jam and butter all for our breakfast in the morning or a snack throughout the day !”

“We stayed in the Jade room for 3 nights which was perfect for a family of 3. The room was clean, spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The breakfast was great and filling - lots of choice. The location of this B&B is excellent. Thank you to the team at Walter's Place for making our stay so enjoyable.”

“Stable courts are amazing, absolutely spotless and modern. Tranquil place to stay and close to all amenities. Kenny is a fantastic host and couldn't be more helpful. I would higly recommend a visit and stay here for the traveller from near and far..”

“Fantastic place to stay. I've been going back for many years now. Staff very pleasant. Clean comfortable room with all you need. Breakfast excellent. Always look forward to return visits. Can recommend it without hesitation.”

“I cannot recommend Mark McIlvenny at Reeds Rains highly enough. From start to finish, the sale of my mum’s house was handled with exceptional professionalism, warmth, and care. Mark guided us through every stage of the process, taking the time to explain details clearly and always making sure we felt reassured and supported along the way. His local market knowledge was outstanding, and it was clear he truly understood how to position the property to attract the right buyers. Mark’s communication was second-to-none—he kept us updated regularly, responded quickly to any questions, and always went the extra mile to make things as smooth as possible. What stood out most was his genuine empathy and commitment. Selling a family home can often be an emotional experience, but Mark managed everything with great sensitivity as well as expertise. Thanks to his hard work and guidance, the house was sold promptly and at a result that exceeded our expectations. If you are looking for an estate agent who is professional, personable, and entirely committed to delivering a first-class service, Mark McIlvenny is best in class.”

“I've never been so drunk in my life, I remember throwing up in the taxi costing £50, it was an expensive day out :) great pool table though! Friendly staff”

“Alfie has been going to DogDaysNI for 4 years now. It has really helped him become more confident and he loves coming in to play with his friends. Emma and the team are fantastic and go above and beyond to celebrate special occasions like Halloween. I love getting brilliant photos of Alfie like these!”

“When I moved here from England, I really struggled to find the right place for Leo to settle—but then I discovered Whinney Hill and haven’t looked back since. I travel often for work and don’t have many people who can look after Leo, so I’ve relied on Whinney Hill quite a bit over the past year. I’m incredibly grateful for the care they give him. Leo absolutely loves it—he can’t wait to jump out of the car when we arrive! The staff are fantastic, and it’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs. I’m so happy and relieved that Leo has found a place where he feels at home.”

“Fantastic place to stay. Spotlessly clean and a delicious homemade breakfast. Room was spacious, warm and tastefully decorated. Gillian was warm and friendly and gave us great tips for places to eat in the village. Handy to Dublin, Belfast and Lisburn due to close proximity to the A1. 20 minute walk or 3 mins in the car to the heart of Hillsborough village. Loads of things to do and see in the village.”

“Have used everytime we've gone away for last number of years, great place. Helen and Rick are lovely and great with the dogs. Our dogs love it.”

“I used GOC estate agents for a house sale recently and had a great experience working with Jack. He was very knowledgeable, professional and kept me up to date with everything as we went through the process. Highly recommend!”

“Went with family and friends. Great choice of beers. Some areas reserved for several groups from time to time but plenty of room. Pizza offerings first class and tasty. Great spot.... Now has a sitting area out the front and to the side. On a good day packed due to both areas getting plenty of sun mid afternoon onwards.”

“We stayed here for 4 nights last week. We loved it! The hotel celebrates people important to the area. We stayed in the John Cleaver suite (we got upgraded). The room and adjoining bathroom was beautiful. The owner has obviously put a great deal of thought and care into this hotel. I loved that it's not got a corporate identity and the quirkiness of it. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was incredible, with so much choice, we've never seen such a decadent breakfast in a hotel. Drinks and entertainment are available in the lounge in the evenings. We didn’t take advantage of this, purely because I have ME (chronic fatigue syndrome) and I needed to rest early in the evenings ahead of the next day's activities. Situated minutes from a bus stop for buses into the city. The hop on, hop off tour buses stop outside too. We had a wonderful stay - first time to Belfast but we will return!”

“From start to finish UPS provided an exceptional service. Well staffed office, contact at each stage of the sales process, always answer their phone, not like some one man bands, where you can never get through and you always have to leave a message for someone to get back to you. Would recommend.”

“We got married at Brookhall last summer and had a really special day in intimate surroundings with family and close friends. This is the perfect place for a unique, personal, relaxed wedding all in one spot if you want to avoid the standard corporate hotel event. We hired the cottages for family and friends, had family dogs there throughout the day and enjoyed the beautiful gardens, lake and wildflower meadow for photos. Rosemary and Pauline were so helpful, supportive and accommodating throughout, gave us lots of suggestions and contacts from caterers and bar service providers to events decorators. Everyone commented that ours was one of the most relaxed weddings they had attended and no doubt the Brookhall team made that possible. We would definitely recommend Brookhall and will always have fond memories of Rosemary, Pauline and our special day.”

“I have used Victoria Pinkertons twice now and wouldn’t use any other estate agents. From the moment you sign with them you are working with the loveliest most knowledgeable team. They will guide you through what is a stressful process with their expertise. Nothing is too much trouble and no question is trivial. If they don’t know something they will find out. I’m incredibly grateful to the whole team.”

“David and the staff are great, they have looked after several of my older cats who needed regular medication. The cats were well cared for and I’d highly recommend Ballyharvey to anyone.”

“Brilliant stay, lovely place, clean and comfy rooms, will definitely come back and will recommend. Breakfast is fab! Thank you Lynne and team”

“I chose to stay here vs. a Premier Inn & I was so pleased I did!! Such lovely hosts, Avril & Terry. So friendly & welcoming. Granted the Inn is slightly dated but I like that, why does everything have to be so modern? It's beautifully quirky & my bed had its own postcode. So comfortable! Well needed after a long day travelling & working. The small touches of the alcohol fridge in the shared sitting room was lovely, along with the small extra touches such as a generous amount of teabags/sugar & milk in the room. Views are also beautiful. Such a lovely quiet, relaxing location. Would love to see it in the summer! The only down side was the power of the shower but that's not a major issue for me.”
