Titanic Hotel Belfast, the BF review

A city hotel is a city hotel, right? Well not quite – and certainly not when it has the pedigree of the Titanic Hotel, Belfast which is the four time-winner of Northern Ireland’s Leading Hotel.

Situated at the foot of what has become the iconic Titanic Building in the heart of the redeveloped Belfast Dockland, the Hotel is built around the original and now heritage-listed Harland & Wolff Drawing Office.

To refer to the Hotel as a ‘themed’ hotel would be to misrepresent the property. Certainly, there are nods to the original Titanic Cruise Liner from which the hotel takes its name with art-deco furnishings and nautically-inspired objets d’art around the property, but ultimately this is an authentic experience.

The three-storey high, barrel-vaulted ceilinged Drawing Offices which form the heart of the building are not recreations of a bygone age, but rather the real thing brought back to life during the renovations of the property by conservation architects. Forming the lobby, bar, restaurant, and various meeting rooms, it is this authenticity that gives visitors to the property a real sense of place and time.

And while the original building has formed the public spaces, the newly built 119 rooms and suites are bright and modern, with Egyptian cotton-topped beds, high-pressure rainfall showers, and free WiFi located in such sympathetically architectural extensions as to provide a seamless transition from Victorian to modern aspects of the property.

Equal thought has been applied to the Food and Beverage side of the operation from the wonderfully clean and open space of the Drawing Office Two lounge to the more classic but equally as spacious Wolff Grill where pride of place is to a glass-enclosed office of the Chief Designer of the Titanic which provides an unusual dining space for up to four guests.

We did not experience the spectacular Afternoon Tea, but had a wonderful buffet breakfast which would provide ample sustenance for any visitor with a full day’s itinerary of visits to highlights of the surrounding area and the City itself.
