Hi, I’m not entirely sure where the bus stop is but assume it’s near the entrance at the bottom of the hill. From the entrance of the grounds to the castle will probably take about 15 mins to walk. Bear in mind it is a pretty good hill!
it is free, it is a walk through of gardens and an awesome view. There is a cafe in the basement but not the best service. lovely spot to see an overview of the Titanic Quarter of Belfast. …
it is free, it is a walk through of gardens and an awesome view. There is a cafe in the basement but not the best service. lovely spot to see an overview of the Titanic Quarter of Belfast. We love it up there. About a half hour drive up and out of Belfast. The hop on hop off buses go there.
Looking for recommendations for where to stay in Belfast that is convenient to Belfast Castle. Thank you!
A:
To be honest I think staying in the city center is really the best thing to do as a visitor to Belfast. The Castle is very easy to reach with the local bus system or take a taxi.

There are no places set aside for sleeping on the passenger decks. May I suggest you contact the ferry company before bringing air beds etc and get written permission. If you don't you will likely be prevented from using them. One good thing is that footfall does decrease as the evening progresses so there should be plenty of areas where you can use your air beds etc. Mind you it's a long time since I slept on that particular ferry. so long ago it was the Ulster Prince.
