Lonely Planet "A new hotel in a truly central location, the Fitzwilliam pushes all the right style buttons with its use of designer fabrics, cool colours and mood lighting." Full review

Michelin Guide "Sister to the Terence Conran–designed Fitzwilliam in Dublin, this Belfast outpost, it’s no shock, is very much in the same vein — a classic yet not exactly show-stopping city-center building whose stately exterior conceals a surprisingly sexy luxury boutique hotel" Full review

The Telegraph7.0
"With fittings salvaged from a church and hand-painted interiors, it’s like staying in the Vatican, except with good food and more than just communion wine." Full review
Independent "Belfast’s "Golden Mile" may have a bit of competition from the Cathedral Quarter and Lisburn Road these days for the title of being the city’s premier nightlife strip, but Benedicts is still a stylish and somewhat eclectic bolthole for a hedonistic weekend"
Lonely Planet "Bang in the middle of the Golden Mile, Benedicts is a modern, style-conscious hotel at the heart of South Belfast's nightlife." Full review
Independent "Stone arches, exposed bricks, immense columns and salvaged stained glass give this place a funky yet ecclesiastical look...retractable roof in the beer garden is a boon if rain makes and appearance."
