Where to stay in Belfast

While not a particularly large city, Belfast is divided into four major quarters – the Titanic Quarter, the Cathedral Quarter, the Queen’s Quarter and the Gaeltacht Quarter – in addition to the city centre itself. Each of these areas boasts unique locations, landmarks and activities for visitors to check out, but they’re also home to some of the best places to stay in Belfast.

  • City Centre

    The Belfast city centre is home to many of the best restaurants in the city, as well as some of its best shopping complexes. Filled with luxurious, five-star hotels and new developments, it's one of the best areas to stay in Belfast if you're looking to keep things central. Staying in the city centre puts you close to a little bit of everything, including transport hubs for when you want to visit other quarters.

  • Titanic Quarter

    Named for the ill-fated ocean liner that was originally built in Belfast, the Titanic Quarter has become one of the city's primary entertainment districts. Home to trendy hotels, bars, theatres, galleries, museums and more, this district is for those who crave an understanding of Belfast's modern history while still enjoying a casual time out with locals.

  • Cathedral Quarter

    The Cathedral Quarter, so named for the many churches it contains, is a developing district in Belfast. Home to some of the city's oldest and most revered buildings, it nevertheless works hard to eschew any stuffiness that its historic architecture might suggest. Now filled with interesting new hotels and accommodation, this area is perfect for anyone looking to stay in an area with history but also a modern cultural vibe.

  • Queen's Quarter

    The Queen's Quarter is the cultural hub of the city. Art galleries, museums, parks, fine-dining, trendy nightlife, incredible shopping… the Queen's Quarter doesn't mess around. For those looking to tour Belfast's many beautiful and well-appointed museums, this is absolutely where you should be staying. History on your doorstep.

  • Gaeltacht Quarter

    If you really want to steep yourself in Irish culture, Belfast's Gaeltacht Quarter is where you do it. Home to hard-core practitioners of traditional Irish life and language, this is where you should stay if you want an authentic experience. Bring a translating dictionary with you if you don't speak Gaelic because the locals can and do speak it fluently.
