A really lovely hotel, perfectly placed for my business appointment the following day. I had been staying in Premier Inns all week and this was a good step up in quality without any extra price. Obviously some work has been undertaken to update the facilities which has been done well. Having the restaurant available was great and the Caesars Salad was absolutely perfect.

Great hotel
Booked as we were visiting the race course, great location with pub attached, short taxi ride to Newcastle, gosforth and jesmond. The room was lovely with nice touches like bottled water etc, the bed bed was huge, it was a zip link bed but we found it way to soft for our liking and didn’t get the best nights sleep unfortunately but other than that great hotel, also had free 3.7kw charge ports which we were really pleased about

Every detail taken care of and I was stunned xxxxx
From start to finish every member of staff made me feel a £1000000 they couldn’t do enough for yeh, the rooms where immaculate the decor trendy, the food out of this world the office desk in the room was comfy the bed was heaven and I am a big lad and slept soundly peace and pleasant clientele but out of my staff the most pleasant part was Richard night reception manager, who could be the hotel manager of the Savoy in London he a true professional and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was to perfection. Till the next time don’t change a thing especially the staff as they smashed it. Yours truly The customer….
