Stayed here a few times with varied success due to mattresses being very uncomfortable but this stay was perfect - room and bed was great and food especially the breakfast always exceptional. Love how easy parking is in comparison to other hotels in Newcastle.

Top drawer destination
This was a birthday treat for my wife, so a return visit to Jesmond Dene House was her first choice, and didn't disappoint! Beautiful room, luxurious bathroom, superb restaurant for a romantic evening meal, and rounded off with a generous breakfast. This is definitely a top drawer destination which is well worth the price.

Stayed recently for a single night. Travelled by train to Newcastle, then by Metro which is less than a 10 minute walk away. Hotel is warm and welcoming, staff are attentive and friendly.

Lovely setting, a building steeped in history, wood panneling. Warmly received at Reception and shown to our room. Everything seemed fine and we looked forward to our two night stay. It became apparent that the toilet was much closer to the ground than normal. Not comfortable for 5"11" guy with dodgy knees. Nevermind, we were only there a couple of nights and I could live with it. Looked up at eye level lights in the bathroom that were dusty and obviously hadn't seen a cloth or polish for a while. Otherwise, room was fine with everything one could need. The big let down though was the breakfast. Not so much the quality but on both days the full english cooked breakfast was lukewarm. It didn't seem like most of it was cooked to order apart from the eggs. Whether the plates were cold or some of it had been out a while warming I don't know. On both days I asked for ketchup.. on the first day I had to ask twice and by the time it arrived I had half a mushroom left. On the second day it didn't arrive at all. The reception staff were excellent but the breakfast staff were efficient but we personally would have liked a bit more friendliness and interaction rather than the focus to do everything as they are told to. For us it lacked personality and warmth. Had a drink in the bar quite late and there was only one other customer. We were served efficiently but again no real interaction and the focus seems to be head down doing the job not the customer It all felt a bit distant.

It’s a lovely building in a peaceful, convenient location. Room was lovely, clean & bathroom was magnificent. If I was looking for something to complain about it was that the bar closed quite early- although when we asked someone did come & serve us with no hesitation but asked us to sit in a different room . We didn’t eat breakfast but it looked lovely. Would definitely go back to stay again

Fabulous. Spent one night here with my wife for my birthday, there was cake waiting with a handwritten note wishing me a happy birthday. The staff were very welcoming, the grounds were immaculate and the hotel was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The breakfast was lovely. Overall - highly recommended.

Beautiful Hotel in peaceful setting
We stayed for one night in a superior double room overlooking the tropical garden. We could faintly hear the waterfall, which was in full flow, from the dene. It is a beautiful hotel with magnificent panelled walls in some areas, especially in the Great Hall. It is only a short distance to the dene itself which is a lovely place to walk. We were only disappointed that the restaurant isn't open on Mondays and Tuesdays and the bar menu was limited. Our breakfast was overcooked and served on cold plates. Our complaint was dealt with swiftly and professionally by the restaurant staff and the reservation manager as we didn't have time to wait for another breakfast. We will return.

Beautiful hotel.
Lovely staff, room, gardens, breakfast and breakfast room. Only thing we could fault was the aperol spritz in the bar (worst we’ve ever had) but everything else was perfect. Felt like an oasis in the city, so relaxing yet great location. Best hotel in town.

All staff at the hotel were very friendly and polite. The room and the hotel itself was nice and clean. The room was generously stocked with tea, coffee and biscuits. The mini fridge was very reasonably priced compared to other hotels I’ve stayed in. The bed was clean and very comfy. There was a wedding and party at the hotel, but there was no great noise to be heard. Parking was free but due to the wedding the car park was full. We luckily got the last space which i think was only there due to it being a tight squeeze to get in. The only tiny issue we had with our stay was that the room was very hot. While there were windows we were able to open, we could have done with a portable fan. This was listed here on the overview of the room, but there wasn’t one in our room. We aren’t the kind of people to cause a fuss though so we didn’t contact reception about it. Overall our stay was fantastic. My favourite part of it was the professional, friendly and hard working staff. Will definitely be coming back and will try one of the more superior rooms.
