Car was damaged during concierge parking. Wasn’t allowed to park it myself. Didn’t source the damage until we reached our next destination and nobody mentioned when we were handed the keys. It was clearly done during parking.

Nice place right next to Town Hall. No driveway so you park at 5min spot on street and check in and then need to valet or find parking (not undercover if it’s raining!). Rooms small but ok (I had a harbour view room which was a nice view from 7th floor) Didn’t have BF but dinner room service was OK but not fantastic.

Unique building and great customer service
The architecture is special at this hotel and well matched by the staff service. They always went above and beyond to assist. The rooms are well appointed, functional and spacious as well as efficient in operation. There is no gym on site but it is a 5 minute walk away and a great facility. Ate at the restaurant too and it was excellent with superb views. My go to in Newcastle!

The room was dirty, dusty bunnies behind the doors and under the sink and the toiletries provided had been ransacked and not replaced. The valet booking system from the tablet in the room failed to register the booking twice. The staff were amazing and the bed is ultra comfy
