Park Avenue Hotel

Our party of nine thoroughly enjoyed a memorable and welcome weekend break at the Park Avenue. It's just 10 minutes by taxi from the centre of the city and very handily placed for visiting the lovely County Down Coast, Ulster Folk Museum etc. Service was effortlessly friendly and helpful in a proper, none-of-your nonsense Belfast way, food both plentiful and of the highest quality. Most importantly though the welcome is real and genuine, this is not a chain hotel! We can also recommend Mini-Coaches coach hire (booked at the hotel's... more

We found this hotel basically fine except for the restaurant staff who seemed to regard us as a nuisance for being there. Getting their attention was difficult and when we did it was "all a bit too much trouble". One of our party complained her meat was tough at dinner and the waitress just nodded pleasantly and did nothing about it not even apologise. Breakfast was worse - getting tomato ketchup proved a major issue for them and although breakfast was advertised as being served until 9.30am - we were asked to take what we wanted from the... more

Very friendly staff, excellent food, had a great weekend here & will be back in 2005

A reasonable rate of 75 pounds per night. Located in a quiet and peaceful surrounding, which almost makes you forget the long-lasting sectarian conflict in Belfast. Close to the city airport. A bus stop right in front of the hotel and frequent services to the city center. The guestroom is spacious and clean, good for relaxing after a day's tiring work or pleasure-seeking. The staff were cool and calm, but tried to be helpful to me. On my check-out day, they allowed me to eat breakfast before the regular breakfast-time. The bar food is... more

Nice friendly hotel, rooms need a little updating. We were going to make use of the pub in the hotel but it was completely full with what appeared to be a function for a big group of men! Restaurant was very nice, staff were very friendly but could do with some training! Hotel was advertised as being very close (5 mins walk) to the city centre, it turned out to be a 15 minute rather hairy bus ride! Would stay again though as was good value for money booked via hotelopia.

Not Belfast's finest but room was clean and comfortable. The biggest drawback is the smoky atmosphere and the lack of non-smoking bedrooms - they just 'air them well'.

a nice hotel and one that lives up to it's advertisements...unlike many! good food, great portions (!) ...don't stay here if you're on a diet! if you eat in the bar though...be ready for a very smoky atmosphere..... you're clothes will smell when you leave... otherwise..fine. Maybe the aircon needs the filters changing? room service was good, daily room change was good and other than the smokiness - it was grand. i recommend it......enjoy
