Nothing to complain about at all. If you get a room that’s at the far end of the hotel you have to have a good sense of direction. I was on the first floor but had to get a lift to the second, then walk over the corridor above an archway, then get a lift back down to the first floor. I was just getting used to it when I had to come home. It didn’t spoil anything, just kept the old mind alert. I would definitely go back there if I visited Durham again. Handy position too and good parking facilities.

Outstanding hotel.
A brilliant two-day stay! Couldn’t find fault anywhere. All the staff were lovely and friendly and helpful, whilst still being professional. Exceptionally clean everywhere. We always stay there for special occasions.

Convenient and central location. Sadly, the hotel looked a little tired in places and breakfast, although plentiful, was a little disappointing in terms of food quality.

Up North
Everything was excellent. If there was one point to improve on, breakfast should be included or at least cheaper than £14, which is very expensive. Other than that, all brilliant. Had a wonderful day in Newcastle and also went to Seaham on the coast, thankfully weather was gorgeous and very warm for November!
