Belfast

All guest rooms come with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, fridge, a coffee machine, a shower and a desk. The hostel features some units with city views, and all rooms include a kettle. All rooms at Aunty Katie's House, NI Tourist Board Certified & located on the main Oldpark Road to Belfast, with Free Continental Breakfast & Free Ultra Fast SKY internet, free SKY Sports & free SKY Cinema, Self-check in after 10pm GMT are fitted with a shared bathroom and bed linen. Rarely have we stayed in a guesthouse with a host as friendly and accommodating as Cat. We were here two nights in a room just off the common area. It’s small and cozy for two, yet very comfortable and quiet when we closed the windows. We really appreciated a fan in the room for air circulation. WiFi worked fine. We didn’t use the TV although a large one was in the room. Sharing the bathroom wasn’t a problem. In fact, the other guests were lovely and we enjoyed meeting in the common area. Cat has two adorable small dogs that can bark at times but are so sweet and affectionate. We were also fortunate to have nice weather and a 20-30 minute walk into the city center was quite nice. If you have any questions about transport or places to go, Cat is ready to help. We’d happily come back.
