About
With its historic landmarks, contemporary art galleries and vibrant nightlife, buzzing Belfast is city-break heaven. But when you need a breather from the sights or the shopping, Bannatyne Belfast makes a perfect pitstop. Nestled in the charming town of Holywood, just outside Belfast and recently crowned one of the best places to live in the UK, this stylish health club and spa offers a luxurious pool, two jacuzzis, a sauna and steam room. But the real pampering takes place in the tranquil spa, where magic-handed therapists deliver Elemis treatments designed to soothe, refresh and restore you.
After your indulgent treatment, there’s nothing stopping you from sinking into a heated lounger in the tranquil relaxation room. But if you’re feeling energised, why not turn up the tempo? With most pampering packages including full access to the leisure facilities, you can power through a high-intensity B.Fiit session, stretch into serenity with yoga, or get into the groove with Zumba (classes subject to availability on the day).
And if you’re looking for something next-level, Bannatyne Belfast boasts a world-class gym, packed with cutting-edge equipment. It was also the first in Northern Ireland to introduce the Outrace Rig – a functional training zone designed to build strength, endurance, and speed. Whether you’re here to unwind or push your limits, Bannatyne Belfast has everything you need to feel your best.
Fancy some exploration with your relaxation? Holywood is a charming coastal town.. But with Belfast city centre just a short hop away, you’re never far from the buzz of Northern Ireland’s capital. No visit is complete without a trip to Titanic Belfast, an interactive museum dedicated to the city’s most famous ship. Meanwhile, Belfast Castle, perched on Cave Hill, offers breathtaking views over the city and beautiful gardens to wander through. If retail therapy is more your style, Victoria Square is packed with high-end boutiques and high-street favourites, making it the perfect spot for a shopping spree.
But if all that activity sounds a little too lively, Bannatyne Belfast’s spa sanctuary is ready to welcome you in. With both single and dual treatment rooms on offer, this peaceful retreat is designed to soothe the body and calm the mind. Sink into a heated lounger and let time slow down. The only thing on your to-do list today is pure relaxation.

Energise with a refreshing swim in the 20m pool, then turn up the heat in the sauna, steam room or in one of the two bubbling spa baths. But while the poolside is a great place to dip a toe into self-care, it’s in the blissful adults-only spa where the real pampering begins.
