With travellers from across the globe, Titanic hotel Belfast is celebrating its sixth birthday this month and reports that 66% of its total visitors are from outside Northern Ireland. Steeped in heritage, the landmark Titanic Quarter building has been long associated with Northern Ireland’s rich maritime history, where some of the world’s most majestic ocean liners including RMS Titanic were built.
One of the hallmarks of Titanic Hotel Belfast’s success is that more than 20% of its staff have been employed at the hotel for more than five years and the concierge team has conducted more than 4,500 heritage tours since opening. Heritage tours provide visitors with a flavour of the history of this unique hotel which includes Thomas Andrews original private office, the decadent Presentation Room, where Lord Pirrie showcased Harland & Wolff’s latest designs for transatlantic passenger liners, and Charles Payne’s office.
Titanic Hotel Belfast has welcomed over 234,000 guests since opening and there have been over 105,000 weddings and events attendees since the hotel opened in September 2017.
Adrian McNally, General Manager of Titanic Hotel Belfast, said: “We are extremely excited to be celebrating our sixth birthday in a market where maintaining service excellence and guest satisfaction are more important than they have ever been. Visitors have tremendous choice of which city to explore and when they choose the location, they also have such a wide range choice when it comes to accommodation that, as Northern Ireland’s Leading Hotel, we are delighted that our extraordinary offering appeals to so many discerning staycationers, national and international tourists, business leaders, event organisers and bridal parties alike.
“In six short years our unique wedding venue of Drawing Office One has catered for a phenomenal almost 4,000 weddings and we forecast that as weddings continue in popularity this will only continue to grow.
“Having operated our business in some of the most challenging times in recent years, I am filled with immense personal pride that more than a fifth of our original team is still with us today, delivering passionately in every aspect of our business every day.”
