"Good hotel for location. Fun pubs around the corner, easy walking to shopping street. Great breakfast. However, if you are arriving by car it is not easy to park your car. They have paid parking several blocks away. So you have to walk back to the hotel, not something I would want to do in the dark. There are ALOT of one way streets in Belfast and would recommend you reconfirm your GPS map with front desk (which is attached to the bar)."
