Has there been bother associated with it, the fact that it isnt in a "good area" ?
Yes, some of the locals have developed a bad habit of burning cars with southern registrations parking at it

When, about twenty years ago? Minder it's on the edge of the Belvoir estate which is a loyalist heartland.

Declan, try the Tara Lodge, and he's a good GAA man (http://www.taralodge.com/), and very close to the centre (and off-road parking).

A lot of wee hoods and noisy students around that area.

Declan, Tara Lodge is on the same street as the B&Bs that charge by the hour. I'd avoid it and go to the Holiday Inn if you can get a good rate.

cheers Rois -

Jurys Inn, it's one minute from City Hall and bloody reasonably priced, everything close by.

Rois · February 13, 2009, 04:15:35 PM

Ah no GDA, no leisure facilities or anything in Jury's, sure those people earning euros are loaded, we should be sending him to the Merchant.

Right enough, Dukes is suposed to be quite nice now, but still no gym, depends what he's up for Rois, Jurys is just really handy.

Loads of Euros alright!!!!

Its a wedding anniversary weekend so needs to be "comfortable"

Can get a great offer on the new "Fitzwilliam" opening in March

malone Lodge is a pretty sound place to stay...

If you're after the city centre you'll not do much better than Ten Square, it's right behind the city hall. I've never been in it but it looks pretty good and there seems to be a few people about it any time I'm passing, worth a wee look if nothing else I suppose.
