The best Belfast has to offer.
1 nights stay for a birthday treat along with a beautiful evening meal and breakfast. Everything was fantastic from the room to the food and service. Have done 2 tea days previously in the Observatory so we were glad to finally be able to stay for the night.

Wonderful experience
It was our first time staying at this hotel, from check in to breakfast the service was amazing. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. We had upgrade our room using the special add ins and the room we had was spacious and had a wonderful view of the city and harbor. Breakfast had great options including eggs made to our taste.
We had drinks at the observatory and it was a relaxing time on the top most floor of the hotel.

Nice hotel but overrated
Staff were welcoming and friendly. Our room was missing slippers and soap dispenser didn’t work but this was rectified straightaway. Rooms quite small for the price. Bed comfortable.

One of the best in Belfast
The Grand Central is a fab hotel. Perfectly located within the City enabling you to explore everything. The rooms are large clean and comfortable. A meal in the Seahorse restaurant is a must. On the pricey side but definitely worth every penny. Drinks in the Observatory are expensive but still worth a visit just to see the view. The staff are all very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. I highly recommend a stay here if you are visiting Belfast.
