Frommer's Review
Once the IRA's favorite hotel target in Belfast, the Europa is the city's best hotel. Former U.S. President Bill Clinton stays here when he's in town, and for good reason -- the lobby is warm and welcoming, with Irish art on the walls and a fire crackling in the hearth. Hotel workers are as friendly as Belfastians get. An ongoing renovation has left the hotel modern but not soulless. The guest rooms are spacious and filled with mahogany furnishings, rich fabrics, and marble bathrooms. The downsides are the restaurant and bar, which lack the style displayed effortlessly in the rest of the hotel. But there are excellent restaurants on the Golden Mile (as the street out front is known), and one of the city's best historic pubs, the Crown Liquor Saloon, is just across the street.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
