Well located with some pros and cons.

Decor of the main areas very in keeping with the age of the building. Lovely period features etc in the common area and staircases. I was in a small double room which was fine. My window looked into a 4 sided interal area with the only daylight coming from about 3 storeys above. The area right outside my window could do with regular cleaning as it was covered in bird droppings. My window didn’t lock but unless someone had a ladder from the roof into the internal area there wasn’t any risk but the principle remains. My room wasn’t secure. Cleanliness was acceptable, in general. Stains here and there on chairs etc and small patch of carpet was bald. Some attention to detail cleaning in the bathroom needed as build up around base of shower screen, mugs had tea stains too. Despite the issues the room was very lovable and I didn’t report any issues as I was on a business trip and spent very little time actually in the room.

Staff in the restaurant helped us to celebrate our child's BD at breakfast. Sang BD together and made us so happy. The leisure centre started taking £5 charge but it was even better and clean the facilities. Only the room was a bit noisy for the party

Very close to the station, ideal as I was using the train. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Even though I was only staying one night they kindly kept my massive rucksack the following day until my train left in the evening for a £1 charity donation. There was some noise until late as it's in central Newcastle so understandable.

We arrived at 2.30pm and knew that check in was 3pm. We went to the bar, and it wasn't until 3.20pm that a member of staff came to us, with the keys to the room, apologised for the delay, and blamed new staff and gave us plus 2 drinks vouchers for the inconvenience. But even though when we arrived at our room, it was STILL not ready, as a house maid was still hoovering the room. When we checked in, we were given the choice of 2 rooms. 1 room on the 2nd floor which would be noisy, as it would at the front of the hotel, and a room on the 3rd floor, which would be quieter at the back of the hotel. We chose the room at the back, but upon entering, it was at the front.

Very dirty, dusty and not maintained. Children 4 and 13 both itchy in room. Water went off in middle of night till we left next morning: no toilet flush, no hand washing, no shower, no cleaning teeth. Hotel did not tell us. Charged to keep bags before check in and £5 each for use of dirty pool and leisure facilities. No response from hotel to our complaint. Avoid at all costs.

The parking cost almost £24!! Plus the room was incredibly hot with a window that barely opened. No fan available in the room. The towels were very thin and scratchy. Black masking tape all over the stair carpets. Basically a scruffy hotel in need of investment. Would not stay again.

Well located, Disappointing bedding.

A well located historical hotel. Unfortunately rooms were too hot and the mattress and pillows too firm. With a heavy duvet and no top sheet I had to use an airplane blanket to cover myself while sleeping without overheating. A fan was provided but the bedding was still to warm for the hot room.
