Titanic Hotel Belfast has opened with fanfare in the city's Titanic Quarter where the Harland & Wolff headquarters once stood. The £28m Harcourt operated hotel tells the story of Belfast's shipbuilding and maritime history of the past 100 years.
The Drawing Offices, where Titanic itself was designed, have been fully restored to their former glory thanks to a £5m grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund's Enterprise Fund.
With 119 suites boasting views of Harland & Wolff cranes to the east and the Titanic Slipways to the west, Titanic Hotel Belfast is a unique heritage experience adding to Belfast's booming tourist offering.
