Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Very friendly and helpful staff throughout the hotel. Thank you! Unfortunately, no hot water on the evening of our stay, so I was unable to have a bath/shower. Room was a bit chilly mainly because the windows let in a draught. It was, however, an exceptionally cold evening outside. Lovely views across the River Wear, castle and cathedral from the window, so worth paying extra for that.

Reception staff were lovely. Room was spotless and comfortable, however I was disappointed with the restaurant menus. Several of the hot food items were cold and lukewarm and the coffee machines were mediocre. Not the standard of other Radisson Hotels especially compared to others in Europe.
