The staff were so friendly and helpful and the room was well appointed and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing, I had the lemon butter and honey pancakes and they were to die for! Parking was at the back of the hotel which was very convenient.

the staff were attentive and helpful , we were very impressed. The room was clean and , and the bed very comfortable The breakfast was perfect . . all really well cooked and presented. A special mention goes to the porridge which is the best I have ever had away from home
It would have been lovely if there had been a small lounge of bar area to sit and relax in, but the layout and space would not allow for this.

A really good base for visiting Belfast. Walking distance to the main attractions but much better value than staying in the city centre. Lots of dining options close by. Nicely decorated and very comfortable room. Wonderful breakfasts to set you up for the day. Friendly and attentive staff and and a general air of being well run.

A genuinely excellent stay. The staff were professional, friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. The room was spotless, comfortable and well maintained, and the whole hotel felt calm and well run. The location is a real strength. It is central enough to walk to the city centre, restaurants and attractions, while still being in a quieter area away from the busiest streets. What stood out most was the quality of the service. Everyone we dealt with was welcoming, efficient and happy to help. Clean, comfortable, great staff and an excellent location. I would happily stay here again and would have no hesitation recommending it.

Excellent breakfast cooked to order.
Tara Lodge is in a quiet road but noise from the nearby train station is noticeable. General area had a number of homeless living on the streets which can be a bit distressing for some people
