City sights and Causeway Coast in one great weekend. No-one knows Northern Ireland like Friendship Travel: it’s our home patch. We’ll show you Belfast’s Titanic sights and city centre nightlife on Saturday, then we’ll head to the beautiful Causeway Coast and the pretty town of Ballycastle for two night’s great craic at the Marine Hotel. Are you a movie fan? Visit the film sets of Game of Thrones and Dracula during your visit as both are produced in Northern Ireland.

We include airport and other transfers/tours, 3 nights B&B, 1 dinner with wine plus the Belfast City bus tour. Other Entrance fees are extra. This weekend break is from Saturday to Tuesday (still 2 days off work, but you can enjoy lower flight prices). Clients should arrive into Belfast on the Saturday before 13.00 and depart on the Tuesday after 14.00.

Premier Inn & Marine Hotel

I think you will agree, we have chosen 2 hotels which are excellently located to allow you to get the most enjoyment from your trip.

The Premier Inn is right in the heart of Belfast Titanic Quarter and only a short walk to Belfast City Centre. Guests will enjoy a walk around the area where they will see the famous Harland and Wolf shipyard or pop into the SSE Arena for a bite to eat. At night we recommend you take a pleasant stroll along the River Lagan, which is just minutes from the hotel.

The Marine Hotel, Ballycastle is one of the Causeways Coasts finest hotels occupying an unrivalled seafront position. The newly refurbished rooms are warm and welcoming and the charm and traditional feel of the bar makes it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a few drinks. A walk along the beach, maybe after breakfast, is a must and will set you up for the fun day ahead.

Your Room

The rooms in both hotels are comfortable with modern décor and are equipped with all the amenities you will need for a pleasant stay. The Premier Inn Belfast is a modern branded hotel while the Marine Hotel in Ballycastle is a traditional property.
