Titanic Quarter Information
The five-star accreditation was awarded by Northern Ireland Tourist Board and is designed to provide visitors with quality grading information on Northern Ireland’s tourist attractions. It is reflective of the world-class hospitality training staff have undertaken, and their dedication and passion in telling the world about RMS Titanic and Belfast’s proud maritime and ship-building heritage. To achieve a star-rating, attractions are subject to checks from a mystery visitor and are assessed in up to six categories.
Having welcomed its two-millionth visitor, Titanic Belfast has once again exceeded visitor number expectations, with visitors coming from more than 145 countries.
Titanic Belfast retains coveted five-star rating Caroline Adams, NITB Quality & Standards Manager said: “Titanic Belfast has set the bar as high as it can go in terms of visitor numbers, quality, customer service and the visitor experience they are delivering. I encourage others to follow their five-star lead and make the Northern Ireland tourism industry truly outstanding.”
