Lovely quiet quaint Hotel about 15 to 20 mins walk to the centre of Belfast City. Got parking in the Car Park provided out the side of Hotel but it has only space for 9 Cars. Great Breakfast nice choices all cooked fresh. Big shout out to Ricky for his friendliness and service at Breakfast. There is no Bar in the Hotel but you have some about 5 mins walk away.
Nothing to do with the Hotel but a word of advice if you need a Taxi order one in the Hotel or if your in a Pub or Restaurant as you can't flag a Taxi on the streets......

The staff were all really helpful and friendly. The location of the hotel close to the Botanic station and bus routes was great. The decor and facilities in the room were great. Superb breakfast too.

Booked for my daughter who is 8 months pregnant and it was her birthday. The staff and hotel made her feel welcome, special and made sure she was relaxed and well rested. We cannot thank everyone enough especially Karin who ensured the future parents got a well deserved peaceful sleep

The breakfast, the hotel location and the staff were all great.
There is a parking lot but unfortunately there was no spaces available when we arrived. First time driving in Ireland and I had to find street parking very nerve racking because I was not familiar with the area and it is in a congested area.

Breakfast choices were excellent. The location is convenient with both a main bus route and a railway station at the end of the street. These provided access to central Belfast and beyond. Tara is a modern building with very comfortable rooms. It also has limited parking.
no issues

The room was a good size, and very quiet. A very comfy bed and a great shower. Staff couldn't do enough for us, and the breakfasts were served, promptly, hot and were delicious. The Lodge is very near a main road and buses, as well as the train station too. We booked an extra night and they could accommodate us( and the rate was lower than Booking.com!)
All perfect

The room was well appointed with some nice touches. Comfy bed, lots of plugs including direct input USB options, robes, coffee machine etc. The bathroom was fine, again lots of free toiletries and kits like a travel toothbrush. The fresh milk in the fridge for teas and coffees is a great touch too. Free wifi worked fine. The cooked breakfast options are superb and all the staff are so friendly and helpful. Lots of shops, bars, and restaurants close by.
The bath had a shower curtain which personally I hate but at least it was new and clean. The non cooked breakfast options are ok but not that extensive. There was no USB plug next to the sides of the bed. The immediate area around the hotel is a studenty residential area, so on the surface can look a bit rough around the edges.
