Second Nature Belfast

9.5/10
Amazing

I recently stayed at Second Nature Belfast on Queen Street and was thoroughly impressed. It's not just a hotel, but a true 'hometel' – a place where you feel right at home, yet with the service level of a good boutique hotel. The location is simply perfect: everything is within walking distance – shops, restaurants, and Belfast's attractions. The room was spacious, stylish, and very clean, with its own kitchenette, which is incredibly convenient for making your own breakfast or light dinners. I particularly liked the common areas: the cozy Winnie’s café, the bar with live music in the evenings, and a small fitness room that guests can use for free. The staff are very friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with recommendations or additional services. The only downside I noted was that breakfast prices in the restaurant are a bit high, but this is completely offset by the quality and variety of the dishes. Overall, this is one of the best places to stay in Belfast, especially if you value style, comfort, and a central location. I will definitely be back.

The hotel was conveniently located near the train station in downtown Belfast. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and clean. There is several pubs located across the street. The hotel piano bar was very nice. I would recommend a view facing the street from the front of the hotel.

Nice hotel, clean and good location. Close to city airport and opposite the titanic museum which was great location. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Only thing I would say is they didn’t change the used coffee cups and glasses in the room and could’ve cleaned it properly. Other than that all good.

I booked this hotel solely because it was advertised as having air-conditioning, which is essential in the summer. We found out at check in that not all rooms have air-conditioning and was given a room without air-conditioning. We subsequently spoke with Reception team and was upgraded to a room with air conditioning, thanks to help from Roland. Please take note when booking if this is an essential requirement for you.

It was a gorgeous place to be honest, nice aesthetics and all, calm environment, so this place is a beautiful place to stay in. My only problem was they couldn’t check me in earlier, so I had to sit elsewhere for 7 hours waiting for my check in time since I flew into Belfast at 8am. I called them to get checked in @12 but they couldn’t make that happen. Got in at 3pm though, 1hr earlier than the original time.

Holiday Inn Express BELFAST CITY by IHG

GBGuest User
Unfortunately, our stay was very disappointing, especially considering we paid around £300 for three nights. The biggest issue was the sofa bed provided for our daughter. The mattress was extremely thin and uncomfortable, and she struggled to sleep properly throughout the stay. Breakfast was also a real let-down. The hot selection was very limited, with dried-out food and only scrambled eggs available. We asked whether fried or poached eggs were available and were told no. There was also no ham or cheese, so the breakfast felt very basic compared with what we expected from a Holiday Inn Express. Sleep was made even more difficult by the amount of noise at night. We could hear people coming and going, doors repeatedly slamming and noise from the rear of the hotel. On the positive side, the location was useful for exploring Belfast and the staff we dealt with were polite. However, for approximately £300, we expected a much more comfortable stay. The lack of sleep, particularly for our daughter, really affected our experience and unfortunately we would not choose to stay here again.

The best thing is its location. It's a 5min walk to the city centre and shopping district, and a 10min walk to the Belfast Grand Central Station where you get on/off the Airport buses. I got an interesting room with four windows, so the whole room was always bright and airy. The room is basic but has everything you need. The only issue is that warm water for the shower takes an excruciatingly long time, so I usually let it run for at least 2mins before hopping into the shower.
