Multi-Million Refurbishment For Newly Signed Belfast Hilton Hotel

A Belfast city centre hotel is set to undergo a multi-million refurbishment before joining the iconic Hilton brand later this year.

The Ten Square Hotel will be relaunched as DoubleTree by Hilton Belfast City Ten Square as part of a franchise agreement with the Loughview Leisure Group.

The property features 131 guest rooms and suites, including the Jaffe Penthouse, with many rooms offering picturesque views of the city and the surrounding hills. The hotel also features a variety of dining and leisure facilities, as well as the Linen Bar, which pays homage to Belfast's industrial past as a global centre for linen production.

Guests can also enjoy The Doffer, a stylish ground-floor tap room open Fridays and Saturdays, meals at Jospers Steakhouse and The Loft Lounge, a rooftop bar with an outdoor terrace.

Graham Dodd, managing director, development, UK & Ireland, Hilton, said: "The signing of DoubleTree by Hilton Belfast City Ten Square marks a significant milestone in Hilton’s growing presence across Northern Ireland.

"Welcoming this fantastic property to our portfolio will further cement Belfast's status as a premier destination for travellers from near and far.

"As tourism continues to flourish across the country, we are thrilled to build on our existing partnership with the Loughview Leisure Group to deliver the exceptional hospitality synonymous with the DoubleTree by Hilton brand."

This announcement marks another step in Hilton's expansion across Northern Ireland, following the recent signing of DoubleTree by Hilton L'Derry and The Marcus Hotel Portrush, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, both scheduled to open this year.

In addition to the signing, the Loughview Leisure Group recently completed a multi-million-pound refurbishment of DoubleTree by Hilton Belfast Templepatrick on the Kingfisher Country Estate, including a comprehensive renovation of all guest rooms, spa facilities, public areas and the 220-acre parkland golf course.
