But for devoted customers and long-serving staff, the Europa will never be just another blandly generic hotel. When the Europa first opened its doors, in the summer of , against a backdrop of rising political violence, it did so with a flourish. By this time, it had already experienced its first bomb attack.
Not only will the Europa be the only international hotel in Northern Ireland, but also the largest and most luxurious. They were served and entertained by the Penthouse Poppets, a posse of young Belfast women in brown velvet leotards, intended as a a racy but fundamentally wholesome provincial version of the famous Bunny-girls.
General manager Harper Brown, dapper in his tuxedo, presided over it all with charm and iron control. But outside, things were falling apart. The city was under siege; it was turning into a war zone. Instead of the affluent tourists and travellers that the Europa was designed to accommodate, it became a home-from-home for journalists who had been sent to cover the trouble in Belfast. If you were a politician, or a soldier, or even a paramilitary, you knew that was where to put the word out.
It was the information exchange. Retired bar manager Paddy McAnerney remembers the period well. He started work at the hotel in the early s. Paddy still works the bar on Friday and Saturday nights, making his award-winning cocktails, including the famous Irish Smile.
So I decided to put it into liquid form. Martin Mulholland, who is now head concierge at the Europa, started working at the hotel in September A combination of the pressure they were under and the exuberance of youth, I suppose.
The Europa was a target for the IRA because of its high visibility as a landmark building, symbolising investment in the city. And the fact that the press corps were based there, guaranteed maximum publicity for any attack. There was a standing order with a warehouse that had every pane of glass duplicated or triplicated, so they could be immediately replaced. But then the windows got blown out that many times, the steel frames got warped, so they had to cover them up with hardboard instead.
You got phone calls almost every day, telling you to search your area [for suspect devices], in my case the bar. You got used to it, unfortunately. Thank God nobody was seriously injured.
Each time, the staff swept up the debris and carried on. The formidable Harper Brown was determined that the hotel would not close its doors. During the general strike organised by the Ulster Workers Council in , in protest against the Sunningdale power-sharing agreement, the electricity supply was cut and the city was plunged into darkness. But the Europa kept going. The Poppets served drinks by candlelight, while the enterprising chef lit a fire in the yard behind the hotel and made soup over it.
Bedclothes and linens were taken out of the hotel and brought to the nuns at Nazareth Lodge, on the Ormeau Road, to be washed in their laundry which had its own generator. Even in these trying circumstances, Harper Brown insisted on his workers being impeccably turned out.
Bar staff were expected to be equipped with a wine opener, a watch and a cigarette lighter. If a customer produced a cigarette, the bar man should be instantly at his side, offering him a light.
