"Extremely convenient location — close to shopping, restaurants, and pubs. The staff was very friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. Would definitely stay here again!"
"We loved our stay at Leonardo, will likely never stay anywhere else in Belfast.
Pros: Location was not just good, it was perfect, walking distance to main transit hub at city hall, train and bus station. Biggest room we had in Europe. Good price. Reservation said it was a double bed, but I believe it was a queen and quite comfortable. Bathroom was a good size. Shower was good. Bath products offered were good. Breakfast was one of the best hotel ones I have seen (quality and number of options). Blackout curtains were very dark.
The only con was the room was quite warm and we could only open the window a crack. "
"This is the first city hotel that we have stayed in that wouldn't serve drinks to residents after the bar had closed. Very annoying as we had been to a concert next door and wanted a couple of drinks with our friends after the gig. Maybe something that could be looked into. The bar staff told us the night porter would get us drinks but he flatly refused. Put a bit of a dampner on the evening."
