Purchased a 1 night stay 28th Jan 2012 (£55 with evening meal and breakfast) as a quiet break with my wife as we have had very few full nights sleep due to 2 1/2 yr old twins. Unfortunately we did not get the quiet break due to a wedding reception and associated noise into the night. The 3 course evening meal was fine, but we were disappointed with the limited menu (especially when the A4 single page was presented to us in full view of other diners, letting them know we were the cheap-skates :-(...). My wife had to crawl on her hands and knees under a table to plug in the hairdryer due to the plug being fed thru the drawer in the table. I had man-handle the fridge out of its housing in order to switch it on, luckily I had booked a massage to sort my injured back out. The pool, sauna and jacuzzi closed at 5.30 - so again very restrictive, but since the free swim came at a price £7 (to purchase a swimming cap), it didn't matter - we didn't use the pool. The breakfast was ok, but the catering hadn't been judged correctly...we (like many others) had to eat our breakfast in installments because bacon, mushrooms, eggs etc were never available collectively.

Dear Mr Johnston,
Thank you for posting your review following your recent stay with us over the weekend.
Can I apologise for the noise caused to you & your wife during your visit, we endeavour to allocate all our wedding guests to a certain area within the hotel. We had a number of non-wedding guests staying for a number of nights who seemed to have let their hair down on the last night who fairly close to your room.
I have forwarded your concerns regarding the menu presentation & breakfast to our Restaurant Manager & Executive Head Chef respectively.
Our guests have complimentary use of LA-Fitness, pool & gym, the hours of access is limited due to their opening hours and as it is a private members pool it is they that dictate that a swimming cap is required.
I hope you will Ramada Plaza, Belfast once again & please do not hesitate to contact me directly.
Regards,
David JW Pollock
Front of House Manager
Ramada Plaza, Belfast.
