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.

Pool charge

We have been coming to Newcastle for over 30 years. Ive stayed at a few hotels but opt for this due to swimming pool. Disappointed a surcharge in place now. Pool was closed last day and i went to City Baths. No apology and staff at pool not very helpful about closure time. Lack of toiletries and bath towels in bathroom also poor . No complimatary water. Next stay will be in a hotel near City Baths. Crown plaza didn't charge in March. Disappointed.

Excellent stay

Excellent two night stay. Lovely large room with lounge area which we later found out was the bridal suite. Room had bath and shower, bath towels could have done to be larger. Breakfast and lunch in the restaurant was very good. I am coeliac requiring gluten free and the staff were excellent and helpful especially Michael. Very local to station and town
