Hotels in BelfastA refurbished 4-star townhouse hotel in Belfast’s Queen’s Quarter
8.1/10
A welcoming Belfast base with refreshed rooms, but check which building you’re booking.
The Malone is a refurbished 4-star townhouse hotel in Belfast’s leafy Queen’s Quarter, and a strong pick if you prefer neighbourhood cafés to city-centre bustle. The hotel says its full refurbishment finished in February 2026. Booking.com, Tripadvisor and Expedia guests repeatedly praise welcoming staff, comfortable beds and clean rooms; breakfast also earns plenty of approval. Queen’s University, the Ulster Museum and Botanic Gardens are nearby.
The main caveat is room choice: the hotel also sells accommodation in separate residences, where condition receives more mixed feedback. Confirm the building and bed setup rather than assuming every room matches the refreshed hotel photos. Management confirms there’s no air conditioning, and guests report warm rooms and some noise. Parking costs extra, with tight underground spaces. We’d skip it if cooling, guaranteed quiet or a central nightlife location matters most.

Best for: couples exploring the Queen’s Quarter; visitors to Queen’s University; travellers who prefer a residential base
Watch out for: no air conditioning; some warm and noisy rooms; separate residences vary in condition; paid parking and tight underground spaces
Location: Leafy Queen’s Quarter near the university and museums; allow roughly 20–30 minutes to walk into the centre.
Rooms: Refreshed main-hotel rooms attract praise for comfort; confirm building, bed setup and room category.
Cleanliness: Generally a strength across guest sites, with more uneven feedback for separate apartments.
Service: Friendly, helpful staff are one of the most consistent positives across sources.
Amenities: Restaurant, pub, breakfast, free Wi-Fi and on-site parking; no air conditioning, with fans available on request.
Fees and surprises: Parking and some breakfast plans cost extra; Booking.com also lists a refundable damage deposit.
