Exceptional

Excellent choice for breakfast. It was lovely to have breakfast in the Great Room served to my table by such friendly staff who can't do enough for you. I also loved the Victorian room in the old part of the hotel.

Very good

Feeling of old world grandeur augmented by the attention of the staff. Beautiful restaurant and bar area.

Bedrooms have become rather tired both in condition of decor and the rather theatrical styling.

Definitely not 5 Star

The Staff were great

Room shabby and not clean. Air con discharging over bed, and when isolated, kept restarting Bathroom extract fan didn't run. The only window didn't open and was filthy. No fresh air to room. Really dreadful room, no excuse for being dirty. Even a listed building can be clean.!!

Lovely luxury hotel for a special occasion.

Fabulous decor, very spacious bedroom. Lovely bathroom with free standing bath. Beautiful breakfast room. Choice and quality was excellent. Very comfortable beds. Friendly and welcoming staff. Quick check in and check out.

Could have done with a Bluetooth speaker in the bathroom. Fairly limited amount of tv channels and radio stations. We didn’t know about the rooftop jacuzzi in advance and couldn’t use it because we hadn’t brought any swimwear.

A definite if staying in Belfast

it’s an amazing hotel, very unique, traditional but quirky at the same time. Breakfast was incredible, especially the porridge!

we couldn’t book a family room on Booking.com but was told it is possible if you book directly.

Spectacular hotel with finest of accommodations and service!

Opulent and ornate architectural features of this building as well as its many rooms. We had a wonderful suite, Seamus O’Heaney, and thoroughly enjoyed the many amenities!

Parking is a bit dodgy but they pointed us to a nearby garage that they provide a discounted rate to Merchant guests.

This is one of the best hotels I have stayed in. The staff are so well trained friendly!

Breakfast was a vast menu. You could literally order anything. I can highly recommend eggs Benedict or the pancakes! Pastries were amazing and fantastic coffee. A beautiful setting with highly trained staff to make your experience enjoyable.

There was nothing I didn’t like.
