The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Thats as good as it's gets really, we got a superior room and was very basic. The pillows were so thin we needed extra, brown stains on the netting at the windows, what looks like round bleach or paint stains on the wallpaper and mould in the bathroom. People kept standing outside the windows and smoking (staff included) and it was so loud as staff bins and laundry was kept near the windows that we barely slept through the night. The walls are so thin we hers people's toilets flushing and the upstairs shower sounded like a storm outside how loud it was, I actually woke up thinking it was thundering. Breakfast was good and facilities were okay.

Lovely hotel with friendly helpful staff. Good facilities. For some reason we were put into an accessible room which we didn’t need so the bathroom wasn’t really very luxurious but had everything we needed so we didn’t ask to move

We had a lovely overnight stay here. Check out was 12 noon which meant we felt very chilled. We had a great nights sleep and it was so quiet, was therefore really surprised when we came down to breakfast and found hotel to be super busy. Highly recommend if you are in Durham city.

A hotel which has clearly seen better days. Durham has deteriorated over the years and the at night it feels a tad unsafe with the locals youths.

Nice hotel, near downtown.
The staff at reception was very helpful; they gave me great advice on a route for my morning walk, and stored my (heavy!) luggage for a few hours after my checkout very graciously. My room was very nice, in the older part of the hotel. My only complaint is that there was something very noisy going on in the space above me throughout the morning...it sounded like weight-lifting, or moving furniture, and went on for hours. Didn't bother me much, but it might have bothered someone more sensitive to noise.

Friendly reception and restaurant staff. Good to have a noon checkout and breakfast served till 10.30am. So didnt feel rushed. I actually like the fact that the rooms are only serviced every 2 days but if you need fresh towels etc you just ask.
