Stayed here for the first time the night before my daughter’s graduation. Such a shame I didn’t find this great hotel sooner! We had a really comfortable stay here and will definitely be back next time we visit Newcastle 😊

Overall, nice stay. Mattress topper was smaller than the mattress, so not the most comfortable.
Breakfast had a menu option, which was welcome as self service options were pretty average, unfortunately not all menu options were available on our 2nd day.
Staff were very helpful and friendly.

We really like this hotel and have stayed twice now
BUT terrible lighting in the rooms
Cannot put make up on in either room or bathroom - unlike Premier Inns who have excellent bathroom lighting
Really matters

Had a lovely stay at this hotel. Staff were outstanding. The room we had was lovely and clean and had everything we needed and more. We are in the inside restaurant/bar and the food was lovely. We also payed on arrival for breakfast and this was well worth it
