Good stay, we come here all the time when in Newcastle but I’ll have to be honest, the place is starting to run down and if no investments in the nearby future the place will turn into a 3 star hotel.

Hotel was great, room nice & clean. Staff were fantastic. Food was good but ended up leaving some due to the only issue was there was an infestation of fruit flies in the restaurant so it made the evening meal a little uncomfortable with flies trying to land on it & you whilst you were eating!

Room was clean but lack of shower gel - why is this not checked every time rooms are serviced? Sanitary Products not freely available when needed - mad in 2025! We used the Executive Lounge and the service there was fantastic! Sorry, can’t remember the name of the colleague that we dealt with but first class!
