The service and amenities were fine, the room extraordinarily attractive and comfortable. In a lovely location on a quiet street near Queens College, a lively shopping street, a train and a bus stop and the Botanical Gardens. However, the visit for me was ruined by their "filtering" of my wifi access to the Internet. This blocked my use of perfectly innocent social networking sites as inappropriate. I accuse this hotel and any like it of police state policies! I've never experienced this is any hotel in Europe, the US or Latin America. Fortunately I was able to go to a cafe across the street which had uncensored, free wifi. Avoid this hotel, and perhaps Northern Ireland, if Internet is important to you.
