The Hilton Belfast sits at 4 Lanyon Place on the banks of the River Lagan, in the Laganside area that links the city centre to the Titanic Quarter. With 202 rooms, it is a modern, business-friendly four-star that also works well for sightseeing, because its location puts several of Belfast’s best attractions within a short walk. St George’s Market is one minute away, the Waterfront Hall two, Victoria Square three and City Hall about eight, while Titanic Belfast is about a four-minute drive. Lanyon Place railway station is three minutes on foot, which makes it one of the best-connected hotels for anyone arriving by train. Facilities include the Riverside Restaurant, which serves breakfast, dinner and kids’ meals, a bar, a gym, air conditioning, a 24-hour front desk and 24-hour room service, plus express check-in and check-out and tour and ticket assistance. Televisions are large, there are free infant beds, and the hotel is pet friendly for dogs, with limits on number and size. Parking is available on site for an additional charge, which is useful if you are touring by car.
Location and getting around
The hotel is by the river at Lanyon Place, a ten-minute stroll from the main shopping streets and a pleasant walk along the Lagan to the Titanic Quarter. The Waterfront Hall is close, and Crumlin Road Gaol is within about fifteen minutes. Belfast International Airport is around thirty-seven minutes by car.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms are modern and comfortable, with city or river outlooks depending on the floor. Breakfast, full cooked options and in-room WiFi are available for extra charges, and self parking is charged per night. The gym is handy for visitors who like to keep up a routine.
Who it suits
Business travellers, couples and families who want a reliable chain-hotel base with excellent transport links, and anyone who wants to be near the market and the river. It is less atmospheric than the Victorian-style hotels in the Cathedral Quarter.
Good to know
St George’s Market opens on Friday to Sunday, so book a room here for a weekend and you can walk to breakfast. Compare breakfast-inclusive rates, and book early for concert nights at the Waterfront Hall. If you are bringing a dog, check the current pet policy and fees when you book.
Neighbourhood notes
The river path outside the hotel is a pleasant place for a morning run or an evening stroll, and the market and Victoria Square give you plenty of places to eat within minutes. The hotel also suits arrivals by rail, because Lanyon Place station is on the doorstep, which saves time and taxi fares on the way in and out of the city.
