Hilton Belfast

Set along the River Lagan, just over the bridge from Belfast city centre, this modern, full-service hotel puts the SSE Arena, Titanic Belfast and the Cathedral Quarter within easy walking distance. Rooms are contemporary and spacious with large windows, good beds and modern bathrooms, and many look out over the river or city. Dining is centred on the hotel restaurant and bar, with a separate lounge for drinks or informal meetings, and there's a well-equipped fitness room, though this isn't a spa-style hotel with pools or thermal facilities. It works well as a practical, comfortable city base for golfers who want to mix sightseeing and nightlife with drives out to nearby courses.
