Feel dissapointed i booked this hotel as feel it was massively mis sold! The rooms were extremely basic with TWO plug sockets! Freezing cold small, the duvet was paper thin, the bar on the side of the hotel was ridiculously expensive! We only stayed so we could get an early start for the airport but if id have booked for a weekend away i would have left! Food terrible! We got chatting to a couple and the bar closed at about quart to 11..no warning, so we were told go to reception they will serve you, well the woman on reception looked furious and charged us way over the odds for another drink! Never again.

Stayed for a night when up for a meeting. Free parking was a bonus. Receptionist when I checked in was so nice, I was early but she found me a room. The room was faultless, bed and pillows so comfortable, Shower excellent, big TV. Will stay from now on when in Newcastle

Friendly, helpful staff. Hotel was very clean. A few minutes walk from West Jesmond Metro station for links to the city centre, the airport and the coast. Local shops and eateries.

It says Free parking at the hotel, but no parking spaces were available. Staff vehicles were parked at their carpark yet none was moved. This resulted in me parking opposite the hotel, where I was charged a parking ticket as apparently the hotel doesn’t even have “residents permit” like other hotels do. The room was clean, the food was great (I had creamy mushrooms and pesto pasta)! But you need to sort your parking..

This hotel is fine. It’s perfectly clean and comfortable but just a bit old fashioned. I was also so surprised to not have anywhere to hang clothes. Luckily my dress was on a hanger so it got hung on the door riser. Very odd! Be aware that there is VERY little parking for the hotel and the roads around for a good way are resident permit only. That was a real problem for a lot of people.

Brilliant customer service. We got checked in early as our room was available. Nice rooms. Usb port by the bedside. TV with usual channels on. Couldn't find a way to sign into you tube. Beds were like two mattresses together and bed was on wheels. Altogether a nice hotel. Would stay again short taxi to city around £6
