Not for us
Nice hotel but a bit far off the beaten track for us. Advertised as parking available but omg are the spaces tight and awkward to manoeuvre into.
Plus points - spotless, spacious, great tasty breakfast.
I missed not having a lobby or bar.

Only Place in Belfast
The staff were very helpful, especially when we had a problem with phoning our next accommodation. The location could not be better for a Belfast stay. The room was wonderful, and the breakfast was first class. I have already recommended this hotel to a Facebook group member.

I can't say enough nice things about Tara Lodge. Excellent in everyway. Cara who checked us in is a delightful and amazing young person, and went above and beyond. All of the staff were great. This hotel checks all the boxes from great location, super clean inside and out, the breakfast was outstanding, has a secured parking area, every amenity is covered. This should be your first choice when in Belfast. Thanks so much Tara Lodge for making our stay a memorable one.

We had a very nice stay. The lodge was in a central location in the city--it was within walking distance of many sights and it had easy access to public transportation. We also thought the room was very nice (clean and well-kept), and we found the staff to be very helpful.
