YOTEL is set to bring its signature blend of modern design, technology, and comfort to Belfast with the opening of YOTEL Belfast in late 2026. Located in the heart of the city, the hotel will feature 165 innovative rooms, a vibrant dining experience, fitness facilities, and meeting spaces, all designed to cater to both business and leisure travelers. This expansion marks a significant step in YOTEL’s global growth strategy and promises to contribute to the thriving tourism scene in Belfast.
Belfast is undergoing a major transportation transformation with the construction of Grand Central Station, a new hub that will be ten times larger than the current facilities. The station, scheduled to open this autumn, is expected to become the largest integrated transport facility on the island of Ireland, offering improved connectivity and travel efficiency for both local residents and international travelers.
IHG Hotels & Resorts continues to establish its presence in the extended stay market in Europe with the introduction of three new Staybridge Suites locations in Budapest, Antwerp, and Belfast. This expansion highlights the growing demand for upscale all-suite accommodations among both property owners and guests. The new properties will provide spacious living spaces with fully equipped kitchens, amenities such as fitness rooms, convenience stores, laundry facilities, and storage lockers. Guests can also enjoy a complimentary daily breakfast buffet, light bites, and evening social events.
