Belfast’s hospitality scene has welcomed a striking new addition with the launch of room2 Belfast, a pioneering hometel that blends sustainability, style, and local flavour in the heart of the city.

The latest opening from room2 is more than just a place to stay—it’s a celebration of Northern Irish creativity and a bold step forward in eco-conscious design.

Set within a vibrant central location, room2 Belfast is a 100% electric property comprising 175 thoughtfully designed rooms, four collaborative event spaces, a stylish restaurant and bar, and a charming tea room. The hotel’s aesthetic is rooted in local provenance, with interiors that pay homage to Belfast’s artistic spirit. Guests will find a café bar crafted from recycled glass, carpets woven from reclaimed fishing nets, and a reception desk made from plastic bottles salvaged from sister properties in Southampton and Chiswick.

Local Flavour, Elevated

Dining at room2 Belfast is a sensory experience. The newly launched restaurant, Winnie’s, showcases Northern Irish produce with flair and finesse. Signature dishes include shakshuka made with Free Range Eggs from Cavanagh Farm, milk from Draynes Farm, and baked goods from the beloved Yellow Door bakery. It’s a menu that speaks to provenance and pride.

For a more leisurely indulgence, the Rosie Lee Tea Room offers a refined take on the traditional tea experience. With 15 loose-leaf teas to choose from and an afternoon tea selection featuring truffle cheese sandwiches, raspberry scones, and lemon meringue pie, it’s a haven for quiet moments and sweet treats.

A Stay That Reflects the City

room2 Belfast is designed for travellers who value both comfort and conscience. Whether visiting for business, leisure, or a blend of both, guests will find a space that reflects the energy and ingenuity of Belfast itself. From its sustainable build to its curated culinary offerings, the hometel invites guests to experience the city through a lens of authenticity and innovation.

Rates at room2 Belfast start at £149 per night.
