Pleasant stay on a short break
A pleasant stay on a short- trip. Hotel has friendly staff and is rooms were clean and tidy. Breakfast was v good. It's a boutique hotel, so not much actual amenity in it but plenty of places around it.

10/10 highly recommend
Our stay at Tara lodge was fantastic and I'd highly recommend! The staff were so lovely and nothing was too much trouble. They gave us lots of information about Belfast upon arrival. Ladies on reception were always helpful and friendly. The breakfast was one of the best I've had at a hotel and there was so much choice (I had a different breakfast every morning for my weeks stay). The staff tended to our needs at breakfast (without being intrusive) even when one morning it was quite busy. The bed was also very comfortable and our room was quiet! Thank you so much to the Staff at Tara lodge and we can't wait to come back!

Good Hotel with parking facilities
Spent one night. Arrived at hotel about 40 mins before scheduled check in. Reception was very helpful and directed us to guest lounge. We passed our would be allocated room on the way to lounge. There was no room cleaning happening along the corridor. I thought we should have been allocated the room. Anyway, the place was great, service was good and we enjoyed the stay nevertheless.

Friendly efficient staff running like clockwork. Clean and comfortable and with a slightly quirky vibe. Lively convenient area with restaurants and bars, but tucked a short step away in a side street so quiet enough. We will return.

We stayed in this property for 2 nights and enjoyed our stay immensely. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were quiet, clean and the bed comfortable. Breakfast was a choice of hot options or continental and was excellent. After travelling in Ireland and Northern Ireland for nearly 3 weeks this was the first hotel with a fridge in the room. The property is just 15 minutes walk from the city. We would not hesitate to book this accommodation when returning to Belfast.

Great hotel with wonderful staff.
We stayed at Tara Lodge with friends for a weekend break in Belfast. It's a wonderful city and the hotel was in a great location, with several bars and restaurants within a 10 minute walk, Botanic train station 2 minutes away and about a 15 minute walk to the city centre. The hotel was spotlessly clean, the rooms were warm and comfortable, breakfast was amazing and the staff were attentive and so friendly.
