    The luxurious surroundings, the excellent staff attention to detail. Any request to staff was absolutely no problem. The merchant is definately a great asset to Belfast and far outpasses any hotel we have stayed in through out the world. Fantastic

    we stayed in room321 at the end of a a corridor, and the only complaint about our whole stay is that as we left and approached our room each time we could either see trays of left over room service food on the floor through the glass door( into i think it was a stairway for staff,) and on one occasion there was a grubby white trolley piled high with left over food plates and dirty glasses etc. A bit off- putting. apart from this our stay was excellent!

    I felt at home in this extravagant hotel. The restaurant was EXCELLENT for dinner and breakfast here, I had amazing dishes. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the staff were affable and lively people with a very helpful waiter. The location was unbeatable and brilliant for walking around Cathedral Quarter. The property was in a nice area.

    Strongly recommend for a speedy visit

    Comfortable room, delicious breakfast, with the added convenience of a great location near local bars and restaurants just 1.5 km from the main train station.

    Don't have any issues at all.

    The hotel was special and exceptionally clean with great views of the Belfast skyline. The room was good-sized, it included free wireless internet and coffee. I loved venue's favourable location and very attentive staff. Cathedral district was worth staying in. They recommended a stunning restaurant for both food & ambience. Food was great and I have nothing but lovely memories from this trip.

    Fine decor and really good service

    I recently enjoyed a wonderful stay with amazing Art Deco architecture that encapsulated luxury. The staff were genuinely attentive, especially during breakfast in the Great Room, where the selection was delicious and beautifully presented. The room's lighting could be improved for a more comfortable reading experience.

    Couple's Retreat Worth Considering

    Had a blast with my partner celebrating a birthday there. They surprised him with a balloon and chocolates, that personal touch, you know?

    It cost a pretty penny, but for the memories, it felt alright.
