“Nice stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Stayed here based on the trip advisor reviews. Staff very friendly. Little let down before getting to the room i.e. the entrance and stairs (we where in the building next to the front entrance) it doesn't fit with the overall look and feel of the rest of tara lodge. Room was nice and well equipped. Fantastic location, great service and the breakfast was small but nice.

“Fantastic little place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

Like others, I based my choice of the Tara Lodge on the great Trip Advisor reviews and like so many others, i was not disappointed!
From the minute we arrived, friendly staff attended to our every need. Our room was stylish and spacious, the bathroom was equipped with lovely toiletries and the bed was one of the most comfortable we had ever been in.
The area around the Tara Lodge has plenty of restaurants and pubs to suit any taste.
Breakfast is served in a large sunny room and the menu was extensive. Everything was cooked fresh and you could taste that it was. We both decided we couldn't miss the famous porridge - which came in a choice of three varieties.
I would definitely stay at the Tara Lodge again and will be recommending it to my friends and family.

“Didn't disappoint!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

We booked into this hotel for an overnight on a Sat. on the recommendation of a friend , having checked it out on trip advisor as well we were hopeful that it would live up to expectation and it certainly did! Very comfortable, clean, lovely staff and a great location. We were able to walk into the centre of Belfast in 10 mins. and there were some great restaurants nearby (Cayenne was brilliant!). Breakfast menu was great...set us up for the rest of the day. we will definatly stay again.

Room Tip: Rooms to the front of the building should be less bothered by a train line running at the back altho...
