Top Ulster Folk and Transport Museum Hotel Reviews

Aloft by Marriott Belfast Titanic Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is very modern. The beds and pillows were comfortable. The breakfast that you had to pay for was not very good. There was a self service laundry that you didn’t have to pay for, which was good. It was right across from the Titanic Museum."

Residence Inn By Marriott Belfast Titanic Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent easy check in. Lovely enthusiastic staff who made my three year feel very welcome. There is limited parking at the hotel so expect it to be full if you arrive later in the day but there is a 24hr outdoor one 5mins walk away. I moved my hire car to the hotel on the second day. You can’t pre-book as far as I know."
