Staff were friendly and the hotel, location and bar area were good. Unfortunately there was a group of very noisy people sat outside on the benches after midnight for a couple of hours on both nights of our stay just outside our room. This kept us awake and will stop us rebooking this hotel for future visits.

My two night stay gave me a very comfortable room, with a well equipped ensuite bathroom. Breakfast was self service, with hot food being ordered at the bar. Staff were very attentive during my stay and I would definitely recommend staying here.

I stayed two nights at the King’s Lodge. Excellent staff and dining options. My bathroom was very clean, well appointed and it had great water pressure. 👍 It’s just a stone’s throw away from Durham High Street and some magnificent views. My biggest take on the Kings Lodge was how polite and friendly the staff were. Makes a good stay.

A single room does not need two bedside tables, and if one could be replaced by an easy chair for when reading or watching Television that would be great. Not a dog person so not particularly keen on dogs in the restaurant when having evening meal, but a minor thing they were well behaved. Overall very good and will come again

Poor management marred an otherwise pleasant stay

Overall, a most enjoyable stay, the only let down being the management, who seemed disinterested, and lacked basic understanding of courtesy. I wondered at times, had they received any training in hospitality? As a contrast, the Housekeeper, Fiona, is delightful and a gem - very friendly, extremely helpful. I'll explain my gripe about the management! On the first evening of my stay, I chose to eat in the restaurant. Not having had dinner in the Kingslodge previously, I had expected to be briefed on the protocol for ordering food - but that didn't happen, and I sat at my table being ignored for at least 20 mins before I went to the bar to ask if someone could take my order. The manager then told me bluntly, without apology, that "It's order at the bar - it's printed on the menu." And so it was - but I had just seen a couple having a food order taken at the table, and I certainly didn't appreciate being talked to in that way. The following morning, I arrived at breakfast to find the water heater for tea was empty, and the coffee jugs down to the dregs. Pointing this out to the chap behind the bar (another manager, it transpired), he disappeared for a minute and returned - with a teapot full of hot water! There was no "sorry sir, let me top it up", or "what would you like to drink, sir". These may seem minor points, but it is reasonable to expect attentive management in any hotel or inn, and to be treated politely and with some effort at customer service.

Will book again - excellent value and location

Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac a short walk to the city centre. Rooms were clean but the decoration was a bit dull and the bathroom was starting to look a little tired. One of the very few places that provide free parking. Breakfast was excellent and we would have no hesitation in staying again

Very clean hotel and friendly staff

Stayed here for 2 nights. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Upon arrival the housekeeper helped my mum upstairs with her bag. The rooms were extremely clean, so special mention to Fiona for this. The hotel is handily situated for the town centre and train station. We ate in the bar both nights and the food was good.
