Unfortunately whoever had prepared the room had left behind the dirty pillow cases from the previous guest on the floor. Apart from that we had a perfectly fine stay but than again we only stayed one night.

We were amazed by our stay at OYO townhouse. We stayed in Le Jardin room and know Durham well. It surpassed all expectations with a truly gorgeous room with a beautiful that was also very private. The hot tub was super and lit up lovely in the evening/night. The service was exceptional and we were well looked after by a range of people. The hotel bar was really lovely too and we enjoyed this before and after meals. We were lucky enough to get engaged on our stay here and it made the whole trip even more memorable. Nothing to fault from the whole experience!

10/10

Quirky, friendly small hotel handily placed for access to Durham city, without parking problems - street parking available across the road. We were lucky to be upgraded to the Penthouse, an amazing room. Huge comfortable bed, fantastic bathroom. Breakfast was delicious too. Thank you for the welcome and service during our overnight stay.

The room was amazing, really romantic for our first wedding anniversary, and the decor throughout was great. My only gripe was there wasn't a lot of horizontal space and my wife had to sit on the floor to do her hair and makeup as that was the only spot near a plug socket and in front of a mirror however we would both definitely stay again

Gorgeous room, lovely decor, wonderful deep bath and helpful folk on reception. Minutes away from all the fun stuff. Some noise from the road outside but minimal. Room is beautiful but has some signs of wear round the edges but who cares, it was comfy and gorgeous.

Aside from a leaking tap, the room was perfect for our needs. Very much "Bijou" but no complaints. It is what it purports to be.

6/10

Very stylish decor and in a great location. Ryan on Reception was outstanding.. although our room needed some TLC to justify their 5 stars.. bathroom was titchy with no space to put toiletries.. wardrobe small and bedside light didn’t work. Bed very comfy and lots of hot water.

8/10

Very central, lovely room with patio door onto a small terrace and nice views. The only negative was the overwhelming scent of air- freshener. We only stayed one night and didn’t have breakfast (not included) so can’t comment on food or service. Would have been good to have a coffee maker as indicated in the information.
