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.

Enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch and a pretty comfortable stay overall. However, next morning the shower would only pump scalding hot water through (no cold) the water was too hot to take a shower.
In our previous stay at the same hotel, the shower wouldn't work at all - worth testing when you first arrive in case you need a chnage of room

Having stayed at this hotel before in the newer section and had great stays so l didn’t hesitate to book again for a nights stay while we were attending a birthday meal.
Sadly once checked in we were told we would be staying in the old original building. The room 211 was clean and tidy but the furniture and bed had seen better days- it’s crying out for a refurbish. The bathroom was spotless but the shower fixings had parts missing the fan in the room made a terrible noise. The walls were thin so could hear our neighbouring rooms.
The mattress was thin and broken - this needs to be changed. There was a constant loud drone noise - must be the ventilation/air con or heating blowers - they kept us awake all night - so along with a lumpy mattress - it was a terrible stay.
Breakfast was good when we were eventually served - not the staffs fault - they need more staff when it’s half full. Portions were very small but apart from very salty bacon it was fresh and cooked well.
Overall unless I can be guaranteed a room in the newer section - I would not use this hotel again. So rooms 201 onwards stayer beware unless you take good earplugs.

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.
