Hotel was nice. Staff were lovely and friendly, food and bar were decent, however the room itself was like a sauna. There was a tiny fan but it didn’t help at all. The wallpaper was peeling off the walls (probably from the heat) and the shower was quite weak.

Other than that a nice room, comfortable bed. Good size and convenient location

I read a previous reviewer who commented on how dark the walls were. I thought that was a silly comment, but now I get it. You can barely see 2 feet in front of you in the hallways as the lighting is so dim and the walls are painted blk or gray. Rather outdated furnishings, dirty carpets, and homeless people going in and out of the little tiny lobby area. The front door is supposed to be card access only but was never locked so anyone just wandered in. The lift was very tiny and barely could hold two ppl and a suitcase. Good location but loud. Seems to be a 20 something vibe that wod be comfortable staying there.

The receptionist was very friendly but the hotel does not appear as it does online. Wallpaper was ripping off the walls, hair on bed, arm chair stained, and doesn't seem to be in the cleanest area. Lots of trash right when you arrive to the building all over the sidewalk.

We did not end up staying here in the end and left after we weighed in other options.

Our stay at The House Hotel in Belfast was a bit disappointing overall. The hotel was somewhat difficult to find at first, as there were very few clear signs outside the building.

The main issue for us was the “king bed,” which was actually two single mattresses pushed together, with one noticeably higher than the other. It made sleeping uncomfortable and wasn’t quite what we expected when booking a king room.

We also noticed some dark spots on the wall above the pillows that made the room feel less clean and well maintained than we had hoped. While the location was convenient, the overall experience didn’t fully match the price or expectations we had for our stay.

Lovely hotel on the outside and bar, unfortunately though when me and my friend were staying the night for a concert, we arrived and went to our room, first few minutes we thought it was lovely and cute, it was really clean with towels folded but it was EXTREMELY stuffy and warm, barely any air was coming in through the window and the fan in the room did nothing, unfortunately I am asthmatic and the fan had dust on it when we went to use it so I had to leave for a bit for the dust to clear off. Bed was comfortable but were very noisy when moving in them, the shower in our room was struggling to stay on cold and I was looking forward to a cold shower due to after the concert but I was disappointed with how little of the cold water was staying. I enjoyed part of the hotel where it is situated with a lot of food places around but unfortunately will most likely not be going again.

Great stay, okay the interior is a bit worn in places, but room was immaculately clean. Cool location, a bit out of the city centre, but upside is there’s so much on the doorstep. Sakura just opposite for great sushi and then a few minutes away Bo Tree Kitchen for the best Thai food I’ve ever had, including in Thailand. It’s BYO, so grab a bottle in the shop opposite on your way round. The team were awesome, super friendly, helpful, a proper credit to the place. Be back in a heartbeat.

The property is showing signs of tiredness, the radiator on the bathroom was heavily rusted. The elevator in the property was out of order due to a leak and based on the radiator it was not hard to see why. Please note that on Saturday nights the restaurant turns into a club, even on the 2nd floor it was far too loud to sleep, thus went on till 2am. Had thus have been made clear I would not have gave booked. Hugely disappointing.

The property needs to be updated. The lobby is in awful shape. They ran out of hand soap for the rooms. The safes in the hotel no longer work. No face cloths for the bathroom. No air conditioning in the hotel. I asked to leave after the first night and could but no refund! I would definitely not stay there again. Staff was very nice.

I have to say I was taken aback when I arrived into the lobby as it was very shabby in appearance, floor needed to be swept and the paint work and general decor was in my opinion very shabby and off putting. A general tidy up and a coat of paint all over the lobby would make a very different first impression. I did not see my room when I arrived as it was well before check in time and I wanted to drop my luggage and go to town. I must say the reception staff on the morning of Wednesday 2nd were very welcoming, friendly and polite. However I was somewhat apprehensive about my stay because of the general appearance of the Lobby.
I am very happy to report that I was pleasantly surprised when I returned later in the evening and found my bedroom. The bedroom and bathroom were very clean and comfortable, my luggage had been delivered to my room and again the staff in the evening were very helpful. I reminded myself not ever to judge a book by the cover as I had a very comfortable, restful night's sleep and a lovely shower in the morning; so overall a GOOD experience. ideal overnight stay on my travel through Belfast.

The House Hotel is a quirky, small boutique hotel attached to a restaurant/nightclub. We were slightly taken aback at the rundown appearance of the main areas and hallways, but the room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Everything is painted a very, very dark grey (hallways and room itself) which do not do any favours to your sense of safety. Considering that this hotel was extremely expensive compared to others we stayed in around Ireland, I would have expected a higher quality experience.

All that said, we did have a relatively quiet night (with some street noise) and the location was very central. Lots of great restaurants close by (we loved Scalini Italian restaurant a few doors down!) and the breakfast in the attached restaurant the next morning was delicious, and served by the most wonderful and friendly waiter in all of Northern Ireland!

I would stay here again, but only if the cost came down to the 2.5 to 3-star-ish level that I feel it deserves.

Staff on reception were lovely, no issues checking in or out.
Bed and pillows super comfy.
Only thing is Hotel is very dark, hallways and rooms dont have a lot of light, bit of dust/dirt in corners of carpet's and bathroom is a bit dated.
But good location and value for money.

Overall a great stay

Hotel was in a good location for what we needed. We had a concert at the limelight and it was walking distance. Check in was very smooth and staff were helpful and nice. The room and hotel is very well decorated and the blackout curtains were definitely the best we have ever found in any hotel..... however the only down side was the shower . Sadly the shower only trickled and I was unable to wash my hair it was that bad. It would of been easier to wash in the sink. There was also a terrible smell in the sink, think maybe it was blocked etc but overall I would definitely stay again.

No for a quiet weekend break.

The hotel and room itself were fine. The room was a little tired and worn but acceptable. It was clean.
We stayed on a Saturday night. There was mention that the nightclub would be on and would mean there would be minimal noise. This was a serious understatement! We could hear every word of every track that was played. If you’re looking for a peaceful weekend trip this is not the hotel for you.
Also it was a very warm weekend and the room does not have air con. Keeping the window open wasn’t an option because of all the street noise.

Hotel stay

Hotel was great on check in, we arrived 5 mins before the kitchen closed and the last checking in said they would still serve us.

Food very nice.

Following morning we got up to have showers. The shower was a dribble and cold, so much so I ended up washing my hair using the ice bucket in sink.
My husband went to reception to report it, although apologetic there was no solution offered - such as alternative room for a shower or a handyman to look at it.

My husband didn't end up having a shower which after a day of travelling the day before wasnt ideal.

It was a disappointing end to what had been a nice stay.

Thought the room was dark and cosy and it good condition. The bed was VERY big and very comfy. Shower was a bit weak but very warm. I thought the included breakfast was brilliant! You can pick from the restaurant breakfast menu and we had what ever drinks we wanted included! Only small gripe is that you can tell downstairs that it’s a bar in the evening because lots of things are a bit rough around the edges. It’s a perfect stay for music/shows at the Empire or if you are drinking in the area. Ear plugs were provided but I wouldn’t stay here if you wanted somewhere guaranteed silent! We did sleep well but we were in late anyway so missed the noise.

Great location for a short stay

Stayed for 3 nights. Great location with a variety of restaurants and takeaways on the street. On street parking was by chance as very busy during the day. Train station near by. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Noise on the Wednesday night in the street was awful the rest were quiet. Half an hours walk to the Waterfront. The hotel and room decor was lovely but lighing is very dark and it all seems a little tired in need of a freshen up.

The people are great and location is fine but the property itself really does flatter to deceive.
As per many other reviews the property is in dire need of a refurbishment. We were allocated a disabled room (no requested). The room was dark with no natural light and didn’t have the most basic of facilities. The sink was low and there was nowhere to hold bathroom consumables . The shower was a trickle and there was no shower screen. The music at night can be heard and the room itself lacked general cleanliness. A disappointing stay from high expectations of what the images portray online. With so many hotel choices in Belfast it’s best to avoid this one.

We were due to stay the weekend of the Belfast protests and decided we did not feel comfortable due to our understanding that much of the violence was near the hotel. We expressed our concerns and were told by hotel staff that there was ‘no reason for concern’. I was told by a staff member that the riots were not near them despite a business at number 19 on the same road being set on fire, cars set alight in the area, and some nearby
buildings I understood were being guarded by riot police. This was not the hotels fault - but we asked for the 2 rooms we had booked and paid in full for, to be honoured for another night but the hotel refused to do this so we lost the full payment for 2 rooms. We are returning guests, having stayed at House on a previous visit, and a gesture of understanding and goodwill would have gone a long way.

There was a full on party from 1 pm till 7 pm with around 500 people was not what we were expecting the noise was shocking people very drunk music was vibrating our bedroom walls, we went to get food at the bar and we’re turned away for almost 3 hours because of cleaning up from the party ect, would not recommend to stay on the august bank holiday weekend

Let’s start with the positives…staff were lovely. Breakfast was delicious and a great selection on the menu although I would suggest some fresh fruit alternatives at the self service station.

Now the negatives unfortunately…rooms for want of a better word are ‘tired’. Upon entering the room we where assaulted by an awful smell which when reported to reception the reply was ‘it’s possibly the drains’ delight

Perfect location and overall nice hotel with a bar/restaurant downstairs and plenty of seating area outside too.
Plenty of replenishments for tea and water which was a nice touch and the room itself was spacious.
Thought the bed was extremely comfy too!
Rooms were quite old fashioned and dark but that’s the overall style of the hotel I’d say.
Only negative was the shower, as the water smelt funny when you had a shower and the shower knob actually would fall off as you twisted it,
which wasn’t ideal! Think that was only our room though as our friends didn’t have that issue.

Friendly staff, far too loud, wouldn’t stay again

Lovely, friendly staff. Nice room, comfortable beds and good shower. Bar and restaurant was a nice atmosphere in the early evening and good food. However, whilst we were warned that the underground club had reopened after we booked, we were not informed of the full DJ set that took place on the ground floor until 2am. This was a Saturday night and was incredibly loud (you couldn’t hear the basement club noise), and kept us up for a good while. It’s a shame given how nice the staff and aesthetic are, as well as good location.

Review of House Belfast

Staff were lovely and very helpful. Was able to check in early and had noted request for a quiet room. The room itself was quite tired and needs refreshing - lots of marks and chunks out of the wall. Shower in bathroom was nice but bathroom itself needs updating, fresh towels etc. Room itself was generally quiet but walls very thin, could clearly hear people talking in the corridor and the noise from bar below (even from the third floor). Breakfast was very nice and was lovely and quiet before 10am! Overall just okay, wouldn’t stay again!
