Botanic Rest Bed & Breakfast

Botanic Rest B&B was clean and basic. It lost points for noise and safety. When we checked in we took our suitcases up the stairs. About halfway to our room in the hallway on a few stairs up, a man was doing some repairs in the doorway to a room. His tools (including an electric screwdriver) were in the middle of the stars and hallway. We had to move them, so we could get past. Pretty unsafe. The breakfast was nice. They had the usual continental breakfast and you could order hot items off the menu. We were on the 3rd or 4th floor. I lost count going up so many stairs. We had huge windows leading out to the street. The room was well lit, but warm. We opened the windows and could hear the street noise. Apparently, there was a bar/restaurant on the corner that was hopping well into the wee hours of the morning, so we got to listen. Then, early in the morning we could hear kids playing on the street. Needless to say, we didn’t rest much. There were lights in the mirror of the bathroom which flashed constantly no matter what we did. I wasn’t sure if I was in a disco or about to have a seizure. The location was perfect though, as we were moving our daughter into her house for Queens University.

Economy - Good stay and 24 hour service

This is very much a budget location, fine if you need a bed for the night. The room was pretty grotty and clearly not cleaned any more than a hoover and a change of bedding. The counter staff were always helpful when requests were made. The location itself is a student area, and with a lot of drug users around the streets at night, and both are loud!

Clean central warm accommodation , great breakfast , would stay again

We liked the room itself but there really was a lot of noise outside the room, that was quite problematic.

No frills but excellent value for money, central location, perfect for going out in Belfast City Centre.

Staff are amazing and friendly. Very helpful and know the area very well. Greta stay.

Brilliant service.

Buona soluzione a prezzi ragionevoli vicino al Botanic Garden non lontano dal centro. La colazione lascia a desiderare..

Clean would definitely recommend you ask for an onsuite as one off the showers weren't great and unusable staff very attentive locations was brilliant very vibrant 15 min walk to town

I do not recommend at all. It's a hostel. We'll located but extremely noisy. I mean, guests. Staff was friendly but not willing to stop messing from guests all night long till 5am. Also fire alarm was on at 6am and they have no car parking but is advertised as they have. Room is OK but small.

Basic room but very clean. Bed was not the most comfortable but good for the price.

Bad smell, damaged water kettle and the heating in the room was off.

This place is very homely. Great value. Lots of restaurants near by.

Our stay at Botanic rest was very situational. When we arrived we were not given a key fob so we were unable to re-entire the hotel after hours. There was also a fire alarm in the middle of the night on our first nights stay. Our hot water also stopped working on our 2nd & 3rd night. We were reimbursed a nights stay for the inconvenience (which was not expected which was exceptional service by hotel staff). The hotel over all was very clean, served a great breakfast, in a great location, with very helpful & friendly staff.

Best thing about our stay was free Netflix and WiFi really good. However the place was minging. No mattress protector, door was not very secure. The door was tested by the police at 12.30am when they were banging on it as there was a complaint about a domestic dispute with another guest.

Made very welcome. Bedroom very comfortable and clean. Very good English breakfast. Transport to city centre only 1 minute from B&B.

Clean and comfortable room, recently decorated. Slightly underwhelming breakfast. Good location, very close to Botanic station and an easy walk into city centre.

Great experience for its price. Nothing to complain about location, cleanness and breakfast service:)

Location is good; staff is very friendly and helpful and clean toilet and shower area. Things need to be improved such as: very limited choices for breakfast for both adults and children ( staying 1or 2 nights is ok but 7 nights is really out of joy) with a bowl of ricescrispy cereal , toasties and the hot breakfast with some baked beans, 1 sausage, 1 egg, 1 slice of bacon, 1 hashbrown and 1 toastie. My son struggled with his breakfast as he doesn't like ricescrispy cereal and cannot eat eggs but he has not got any choice. The power cut off 4 times during 7 days we were there and for the last three days, the room had not been cleaned.
