The Titanic Hotel is a spectacular addition to Belfast's sleeping scene. Located in the Harland & Wolff shipping company's old headquarters, it pays tribute in both its location and design to the city's shipbuilding past, with the old drawing office transformed into a light-filled bar and each room decked out with ship-related touches.
Old photographs of the headquarters and posters for Atlantic-crossing liners adorn the walls, the former, renovated business rooms are open to take a peek into, and a large model of the Titanic sits by windows that overlook the Titanic Belfast museum and the slipway down which the ill-fated ship was launched. Even if you're not staying, come for a drink, afternoon tea or dinner (book ahead) in the Wolff Grill to get a feel for this historic building.
