Only thing I didn’t like was parking as from the pic it looks like plenty but very little - that’s a minor as it was fantastic

Fantastic client service! Every staff member was very helpful and accommodating
Bed and pillows need a refresh. The bed was a bit lumpy and the pillows flat

Excellent location. Really nice staff, helpful and welcoming. Quiet area and very core to lovely student life. Close to Queens. Free parking. Great water pressure in the shower. Spotless and lovely clean quality bed linen. Zero street noise!
Terribly soft springy uncomfortable mattress. Poor noise insulation between rooms.

Everything was great. Staff was friendly and polite. Great location, as it is near the station, which is convenient if you want to go to Derry, for example, from Belfast. The breakfast is super and it is cooked, it is not a buffet. I chose this hotel because of perfect reviews and I see why they are like that – there is simply nothing to be really annoyed about.
These are minor problems, so they didn't affect how I rated the hotel. However, there is no online check-in it seems, and I don't really like to have to say aloud my banking card details. Also there was no sign "don't disturb" in my room. I guess I could get one if I needed – which I didn't. But generally, it would be better if it was present from the very beginning. And funnily, I would name the cooked breakfast as minor minus, being a great plus at the same time – sometimes you just don't really have time to wait, alas.

Breakfast was fabulous. Choices good and freshness excellent. Staff attentive and efficient.
A little noisy at times due to students returning from town and building works across road.

The Tara Hotel is near Queen's University and within a 3 minute train ride to the City Centre or Waterfront Conference Centre using Botanic Train Station that is a few minutes walk from the Hotel. Hotel is thus ideally situated for many things!
Beakfast is prepared fresh and was of superb quality.
My room was wonderfully spacious and spotlessly clean! Every day of my stay they even supplied 2 bottles of Springwater without any charge. A nice touch!
Bathroom was also spacious and had a Bath too!
Lots of nearby Restaurants for the evening and a wonderful Cinema a 5 minute walk away.

Outstanding accommodation. We received a very friendly welcome and on this occasion (although we had no right to ask) our room was made available earlier than we expected.
The Tara Team left gorgeous treats …. which was very unexpected, but much appreciated. Our room was
spotless. Breakfast was fantastic. Will definitely return when we know dates of the next gig!
That we only enjoyed one night’s hospitality!

We loved everything about The Tara Lodge Hotel.
