"The latest jewel in the crown of Belfast hospitality king Bill Wolsey, the man behind the five-star Merchant Hotel and a host of right-on pubs." Full review

"This hotel is a tribute to Steve McQueen. And it’s a great escape indeed, impressively pulling off retro appeal without descending into kitsch. Rooms come in “dinky”, “comfy” and “roomy” sizes"
