48 hours in Newcastle

The hotel is quite close to the station and the city centre and easily accessible. The friendly staff who checked us in were very helpful and efficient. The room was clean and had a good TV and drinks availability. As we were going out the cleaning team were working on the room upkeep and seemed very happy. Excellent quality breakfast, plenty of options and freshly cooked. Only slight criticism would be no tea or coffee in the bar area when we got back in the afternoon, but offered extra tea bags for the room. Would be happy to stay here again.
