"For another A+ option, Belfast’s most upscale hotel, The Merchant, is an imposing Italianate building from the 1800s. Aside from its curb appeal, it’s also home to an excellent restaurant, Bert’s Jazz Bar, with—you guessed it—live jazz every night. And don’t miss the luxurious candlelit spa in the basement. For unbeatable views of the city, head to the rooftop gym and outdoor hot tub."
