10/10 Exceptional

There was a lot of dirt behind the bed and the extra blanket in cupboard was dirty including the bag it was kept in however I have stayed here twice and wouldn't stop me staying again thanks for service
Danielle, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Although this is a convenient hotel for Gateshead and especially the Metro Centre, it is very dated. There is no customer lift and quite steep stairs to climb with a suitcase if you are on the second floor which we were. The staff are nice and helped me get my suitcase down when we were checking out through the service lift. However, this is quite a dated hotel with basic amenities and not a place you would go stay at for a treat.

8/10 Very good

Really nice, but room for improvement

Really nice stay in a Junior Suite. Shame it was only for one night. Breakfast was excellent and the staff in the restaurant were friendly and efficient. Only downside was the bed was too soft, and the curtains were a poor fit for the window.
Peter, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Bathroom wasn't the cleanest and the bath panel wasn't fitted properly leaving a gap.
Danielle, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and the bed was really comfy. A good location, lots of places to eat nearby. It’s not far from the metro centre and Newcastle city centre.
Jenna, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely gem just 10 minutes by taxi into Newcastle. All the staff were friendly and helpful from the receptionist to the dining room staff, especially Ann and John who made breakfast a unique experience. We will definitely consider staying there again in the future.

Great Hotel in Newcastle Upon Tyne

We were very impressed with this hotel. Our room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable and we were fortunate to have a lovely view of Newcastle.from our window. Our incuded breakfast was served in a magnificent reception room and was very 'a la carte' and delicious. Thank you. The front reception were friendly and offered us the service staff elevator to our floor as we were travelling with heavy suitcases. There are no lifts at this hotel.

Short stopover.

Nice hotel, lovely staff and comfortable rooms. Excellent food in the Lounge bar. Fish and chips was amazing! Only gripe was there was an irritating whirring noise all night from an air con or fan unit somewhere.

wiam, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The premium room was large, warm & comfortable, a significant improvement over the standard room in which I have stayed in the past. Unfortunately, the soundproofing from the road roar outside & noise from adjoining rooms was poor, leading to my being awoken by “rutting bison” in the early hours.

Toilet hadn’t been cleaned properly beds where uncomfortable
