The Merchant boasts one of Belfast leading restaurants set in a spectacular atrium with historic plaster work creating a unique atmosphere. The main restaurant adjoins one of the Belfast's most exclusive bars popular with city's elite and trendy crowd. The second more informal restaurant is ideal for those looking for a more stylish traditional bar serving food and beverages. The building was formerly the head quarters of the Ulster Bank and is a low rise semi classical grey building that was built when Belfast was one of the most prosperous cities in Europe. The lobby is small and very different to the rest of the building as it is more modern in design, slightly dark allowing greater appreciation of the art work highlighted on the walls. The Merchants sets new standards of accommodation and hospitality in Northern Ireland and is comparable with some of the finest boutique hotels in the world. The hotel also holds the Guinness Book of Records for the most expensive cocktail in the world and highlights the unique experience that guests experience when they stay here. SC 08/07
