[MEGAVANMAN, 21/03/2012] i couldn't recomend this hotel enough to people. it has made every hotel that i have stayed at since seem not up to standard. the room was so clean and fresh that it gave the impression that you were the first person ever to stay in it. the bed was so comfortable that it made it hard to get up in the morning. the breakfast was lovely with a great selection of different items. staff were friendly and helpfull
all in all i can only describe it as a cracker!!!!!!!
[blou, 05/02/2012] was really nice, friendly staff, very clean, even gave me a takeaway menu at midnight for my munches. I have been several times
[nayeemkarnachi, 16/12/2011] I stayed at this place as I was in Belfast to attend an interview.
They have everything you need and also things you wouldnt expect.
Enjoyed my and the staff are very friendly.
I stayed in this hotel in March 2010 but had to leave a feedback as it would be unfair otherwise.
[FRN57, 06/06/2011] Very good hotel, 10 mn walk from city centre, charming and modern rooms (room Nr 7), nice and comfortable bathroom and, last but not least, the breakfast is copious, various and well served. To recommend.

[garsop, 21/02/2011] As always Taralodge is second to none, i call it my little hideaway but is full of life & character. My wife & I were guests on a 2 nite stay courtesy of being selected on a facebook draw, however have'nt been visitors to Taralodge twice before I knew what I was in for.
I cannot fault the Taralodge, everything is exactly the way it should be. My arrival was greeted with a warm & courtesy friendly welcome which we were checked into our rooms in no time, been given a room at the back which adjoins the railway was no issue, was actually nice to see the trains drive by, also nice views of H&W

[PeterMason, 21/02/2011] The stay was ok. Good local access to restaurants and bars. Room a little austere although comfortable. Breakfast was just ok without one thinking "wow". Most noticeable was I stayed two nights and was charged different prices for each night, even though hotel was not full. Can't understand this policy.
[DrNannePGJoosse, 17/12/2010] My stay at Tara Lodge in Belfast was a very pleasant one. The hotel offered nice and spacious rooms as well as a great breakfast cooked to perfection. The staff was great: very helpful, courteous, kind, and extremely professional. The Lodge's location is superbly situated: perfect for city center and Queens University (Botanic gardens) and is surrounded by quite a few amenities.
Definitely a hotel worth recommending!
[classychick, 21/01/2009] The highlight of my trip was the black cab tour 90min of history and fun .we were picked up at the hotel by Bobby our driver and guide.He took us to see murals on the Falls and Shankill Rd's,the Peace-line walls and gates which still close at night.The tour finished at the Crown bar which is owned by the national trust .There is a bus that tours Belfast but it doesn't go were the taxis go. We went with www.cabtoursni.com
[trevorbrock, 10/08/2008] Malone House is a classy building in a quiet part of town. Service and food is of good quality, and this makes a nice place for a special treat, a quiet place for a coffee conversation, or a good venue for a conference session.

1 A Problem Needing A Solution
The growth of the no-frills airlines has introduced the travelling public to a host of
new airports, especially in Europe.
We have become accustomed to checking out how far a destination airport actually is from the city we want to visit. Some have found to their cost that the time to travel from the airport into the city is greater than the time on the flight itself.
For decades Belfast was served by only one airport - Belfast International.
It is a good airport and should be praised for remaining open through 30 years of 'The Troubles', when security

[digital_explorer, 19/06/2007] FLYING WITH EASYJET airline from Northern Ireland to any UK and European destinations is always through Belfast International Airport. BIA is one of the major airports in the Irish region that has recently reached a major milestone in its history by having catered to 5 million passengers for the past 12 months. Currently, it is serving 41 scheduled destinations with 26 European and transatlantic, and 15 domestic flights.
Comparing BIA with George Best Airport, it is unlikely the former is popular for European flights, aside for being easyJet's hub, it is also the home of Jet2, bmibaby, Cont

[digital_explorer, 25/05/2007] THE WATERFRONT HALL is one of the architectural icons along Lagan River in Belfast, just besides Hilton Hotel and few meters away from the central train station and St Georges Market (3rd best food market in the UK). It is an entertainment and cultural venue for the past ten years, and it has been visited by prominent people from around the world, including Prince Charles who inaugurated the building in January 1997.
One of the magazines published by the Belfast Visitor and Convention Bureau describes the Waterfront Hall as one of the ''must-see city attractions''. This ''contemporary theat

[digital_explorer, 16/04/2007] FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE BELFAST CITY AIRPORT, the airport got its new name on 22 May 2006 in tribute to the Irish legendary footballer, George Best who passed away early last year. Through this airport, Belfast is links to the Londons airports: Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton and Standsted, including worldwide connections using flybe, BA, Aer Arann, Euromanx, British Northwest Airlines, and Air Berlin air carriers.

[sue51, 30/10/2006] Hilton International is a truly global chain with around 2,700 outlets across the world incorporating a range of brands including Scandic, Doubletree, Conrad Hotels and Hampton Inns, something to suit virtually every budget, although in the UK we are restricted to Hilton Hotels in many of the UK's major cities.
So Why Belfast? My other half's 40something birthday, a desire to go somewhere we could fly cheaply and somewhere luxurious to have a relaxing few days. Having been to Belfast twice on business, I considered it to hold something of an intriguing quality with its magnificent buildings

[fizzytom, 04/10/2005] We chose the Travelodge Central in Belfast for its great location - close to the bus station without being affected by noise and well located for the shopping and leisure areas of the city. It is only two minutes walk from the main bus station from where you can get buses to destinations all over the province and also close to the city bus station outside City Hall. From here you can catch buses all over the city. Visitors with their own vehicles will be pleased to learn the hotel has a secure carparking area.
The reception area is small and bleak; there are a few seats and a machine for ho
