The merchant hotel was originally a bank. The property is lovely with a cozy bar with fireplace and lovely dining room. Included in our stay was morning breakfast which provided for lovely choices. There are both art deco and Victorian rooms. We noted for the art deco rooms which were spacious and well decorated.amenities were nice , bed comfortable. Staff was very helpful.

"The Merchant Hotel Belfast- amazing experience"

10.0

The room, the great dining room, the architecture, the staff, the food and the cocktails were all amazing. I was delighted with the size of the room. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. I could not have asked for better. It's also in a great central location. I have stayed there before and I have attended high tea on two occasions. Excellent service in beautiful surroundings.

I cannot think of anything that I didn't like.
