SINK ABOUT IT

If you’re headed to Belfast, Northern Ireland, you’ll no doubt have the excellent Titanic museum at the top of your to-do list. Fashioned from the headquarters of the Titanic’s builders, Harland & Wolff, the museum is shaped to resemble four ships’ prows clad in 3 000 glittering silver aluminium shards, which explains its local nickname: the Iceberg. Housed in the Harland & Wolff Drawing Offices, which date from the 1880s, with fantastic views of "the Iceberg", the hotel will take your immersion in the ill-fated ship’s story a step further. Double rooms from £140.
