Enjoyed my stay although it hadn't been particularly clear when booking that due to a recent fire in the kitchen, the venue wasn't currently serving food. Plenty of places nearby to eat but it would have been good to have been forewarned.

Not what it seems…..

The room we were given was not the room booked. The shower was awful, there was no hairdryer, the venue does not have a working kitchen, hence no food available. The toilet leaked and finally the host refused to accept that I had paid before arrival even though I showed him my payment acknowledgment on my banking app. Would not recommend this place.

No food for us!

We arrived at the premises to find the bar & restaurant closed due to a kitchen fire, only informed by notices in the windows, no advance warning. Rooms still open, but had to ring a couple of numbers to get hosts to let us into the property. Main reason for choice was the excellent reviews we'd read about the food! Sadly no food, or drink, during our stay. Breakfast offered was a croissant each left in the fridge with a bottle of orange juice. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. (It was my birthday treat.) However, room lovely & warm, clean & the bed was comfortable. Quiet too, for being on the front of the property. Had our own keys to come & go, & parking right outside, with a parking disc. The host informed us the kitchen will be closed for months to come.

Our stay here was only for one night, the room was very dated,but bedding clean & bed comfortable. Tea & coffee making facilities were good. Bathroom did smell damp, but appears to have a leak from the toilet. Staff were very nice and welcoming, the food that night was very nice. Very convenient location for our trip.

Great town centre stay.

You have to understand you're staying in a heritage building, within a town centre, above a busy, excellent pub/resteraunt. To some extent, the bedroom is a secondary consideration. However, staff very friendly, room warm & comfortable, food excellent and ideal for exploring Alnwick. Great stay, but don't expect the Ritz.

Good location and facilities in the bedroom with fridge and decent tea tray. I would have given the property condition and facilities a better rating if the bathroom had been updated, it was clean but a bit tired. It wouldn't stop me from staying here again.
