Thank you to everyone at Tara Lodge for providing us with a wonderful stay. It's ideally located in a central-adjacent but still quiet area within walking distance of all of Belfast's main attractions. The staff are incredibly friendly and the free breakfast was one of the best we've had.

From making our booking to checking out everything exceeded expectations! We stayed one night and had a complimentary upgrade. The staff were all so helpful and friendly, special mentions to Stephen who helped with our booking and Shona who served our breakfast. The hotel is beautiful, modern and perfectly clean. Breakfast was delicious, served in a bright and welcoming breakfast room. Fantastic value for money in a convenient area. Real wee gem. Look forward to our next stay!

Very nice hotel, all the staff was kind and helpful, they helped us in finding some interesting places around the city and they have the reserved parking lot.
The best part was the full Irish breakfast!!

I was really impressed with this hotel. It is located in a residential area, and is very quiet. The room was clean and the linens were high quality. The free breakfast was excellent. There is a large dining area, but it can still be very busy at peak times. You may need to wait for a few minutes before a table opens up. For breakfast, you can order off the menu and/or have some of the free mini buffet (see pictures). The staff was very friendly. There is free parking, but it is first come first serve and the lot will fill up. There is free on street parking available. They offer free printing.

I highly recommend this hotel. It was very clean which to me is important. Room was warm at night but we opened up window which helped. I can't say enough good things about the front desk the girl there was so helpful and answered all my questions she was wonderful and made our stay even better. It may not be in the center of Belfast but about a 2 min walk and you are near tons of pubs and restaurants. We ate in 2 restaurants both amazing food. If I am ever in the area again I would stay here I can't say enough good things about this hotel.

My wife and i just spent two nights here while staying in Belfast and I cannot say enough positives about this place. The staff was went above and beyond expectations from check in to check out. The room was clean and up to date. We even had a great breakfast downstairs our second morning. Will be back to Tara Lodge and Belfast!

The staff here are super friendly and helpful. Stayed three days and two nights. The location is great for getting around by car or foot. Anytime I had a question, the staff were eager to help. The rooms are equipped with a hair dryer and even and ironing board. The beds are so comfortable. The breakfast, which is included in the room rate, so delicious.
Parking is first come first serve, and the parking area isn't all that big. But I didn't have any issues with parking. Might be harder on a weekend.
Many restaurants and pubs within walking distance. Queens uni, ulster museum, and

Interesting location, near the university. Not a traditional hotel front, just blends into the row houses, so make sure you keep a look out. Parking in the back is awesome, I would not want to park on these streets.
The streets are full of university kids, with lots of cheap/meh food options around, and some a bit nicer. A bit loud at night due to street noise from drunk kids walking home. Close enough to city center to just walk there for food/bars/etc though, which is a nice perk with the free parking. Nice decor, nice sized rooms.

Staff was absolutely the friendliest bunch of people I&apos

Having traveled internationally for 40 years, I can say with full confidence that this location is a very unique "treasure". The reception, managed by Sinead, was first class. The location is ideal, and we had a lovely room on the back of the hotel. Make sure you have the "Irish Warmer' for breakfast. We stayed in Five Star hotels and Castles for two weeks - but the highlight is this "Boutique Inn". A very special experience and so central to all you want to do in Belfast!!

Friendliest, most helpful staff I've encountered on my trip here in Ireland/Northern Ireland.

Not posh. Not pretentious. Just a good, solid place to stay. I had the breakfast (included in my prebooked room price) and it was a good spread compared to some others I've had.

Quiet neighborhood. Convenient for walking to the city center.

Enjoyed my stay here.

My brother and I were travelling through Ireland and stayed for one night at Tara Lodge. We found it in a B & B guide, literally the day before, and they were very happy to set us up with a place to stay in Downtown Belfast. While the room itself felt more like a hotel room with two double beds than a traditional Bed & Breakfast, the spread in the morning was what one would expect in Ireland: rashers, brown bread, eggs, plump, juicy Irish sausages and an assortment of yogurts and cereal. There was on site security, friendly, courteous staff, and the overall feel of the place seemed both

Reasonable, clean, spacious and excellent service is the best way to describe the place. Breakfast is excellent and the Power Porridge my favorite. Staff are very friendly and willing to go the extra step to help you. Location is convenient and parking, wifi and breakfast is included. What more can you want for a short stay in a city ?? :-) Will definitely come back here anytime.

This was a lovely place to overnight in Belfast. Comfortable beds, helpful staff and a GREAT location!

I was very impressed with Belfast (though the herd of Germans who "stole" my shuttle to the bus tour didn't impress me...the driver however returned to get me and felt bad because he thought I was in with them! I actually wished HE could've just driven me around...he was great!)...it's a town that's seen it's share of "the troubles" but has risen above those troubles. They have a positive attitude, scads of hope and they seem to be doing the right

We arrived, completely exhausted, and were met by Janine. she was very bubbly and sweet, and agreed to easily accommodate us, though we were early (by 3 hours). After a day and a half of travel, this was most welcome.

Our room was ready, very clean, and super comfortable. The couple minor tiny things, the first one we really did not, at that point, care much, was the spastic bathroom light that did not seem to have a good connection and, so, flickered on and off in a way that could easily cause an epileptic episode if you happened to have epilepsy; otherwise was simply annoying.. we chose to

I searched out this boutique hotel ater a very unsatisfactory stay in a B&B on Malone Road previously. I was delighted when I did. The website was helpful and informative, the photos of the rooms looked great and it was located walking distance from where I would be working - the walk would also take me through the Botonic Gardens.


It is located in student central so the surrounding roads are littered with digs and investment properties - many of which are run down or abandoned. However the location is ideal for reasonable eateries and there are several pubs around for a quick pint.

Ah, finally, I found the business card of this little hotel in Belfast.
It was very cozy, with great linens, bit flat screen TV, awesome bathroom soaps/shampoo and absolutely well located.
I will definitely suggest it if you stop there for a few days.
