Description

The Merchant hotel is the only AA five Red Star hotel in Northern Ireland situated in the heart of Belfast city centre's historic Cathedral Quarter. 62 highly apointed rooms with a harmonious blend of Victorian grandeur and Art Deco inspired sleek modernity. Formerly the Head Quarters of the Ulster Bank which dates back to 1860, this part Grade A listed property was sensitively resorted to its original splendour and is quite unlike anything in Belfast with a multitude of exciting amenities. The Event Space at The Merchant hotel was built in 2010 offering a range of spaces, from our 16 person boardroom, ideal for smaller meetings or private dining; right through to our Rita Duffy suite, perfect for conferences, dinners for up to 200 people. We also have a beautifully landscaped Absolut Roof Garden, decorated seasonally with a striking and inventive theme. Our Roof Garden is unique to the city and is available all year for private events, catering for up to 70 guests.

The Jonathan Aiken Room and its counterpart the Brian Ballard Room are ideal for breakfast meetings, lunch and dinner parties, meetings, drinks receptions, or as a breakout room with the main conference plenary taking place in the Rita Duffy Suite.

Beautiful hotel and decor. Staff helpful and friendly. However, if you are looking for a nice relaxing break and a nights sleep, you may not get it here. Loud music from the clubs/bars close by and street noise kept us up into the early hours. Biggest issue for us was that we were not informed of this prior to or during check in. Expected that at the very least from a hotel with a five star rating and five star prices.

Famous luxury hotel in the heart of Belfast. Brilliant for lunch and business meetings, lovely for a weekend break. Clubs, bars and restaurants within reach. Bring some extra cash( posh place= more expensive).

A fantastic Afternoon Tea is the ultimate treat at the Merchant. Unbelievable service from every pleasant staff member. Add the live, relaxing music and luxurious decor. It couldn't get any better. Plus, if you cannot eat all, the waiter offers a take out box to bring the remainder of your goodies home with you. Special dietary needs catered for also.

Having only had a surprise mother and daughter spa and hydrotherapy session I can't comment on the hotel too much...however on chatting to a group of ladies who often stay there it will be my next stay when in Belfast again. But the spa is well worth a visit...so friendly so relaxing so individually tailored to your needs. Beautiful experience.

Beautiful surroundings. Historic buildings. Christmas decor really lovely. Service excellent. However price does not justify 3 tiny scones plus 3 cups tea £17.50. Too pricey. Special occasion only!
