I was happy with the property and my room however breakfast was poor. Cooked breakfast was served buffet style but all of the food in the chafing trays was cold. I also asked for a fried egg and the waitress forgot about it. The breakfast was certainly not worth £13. I would give a score of 0 out of 5 for breakfast.

Good hotel that has a convenient on site pub. We used this hotel for Newcastle races. Thus was only a short taxi ride away so was convenient. Hotel is modern inside with goid facilities in rhe room (tea,coffee,biscuits and toiletries) Aircon in the room also. Had food in the onsite pub on 1st night but unfortunately there was no food option on the 2nd night ( staff gave different excuses) Its definitely worth getting the breakfast as there is plenty of options and the quality is very good. Would definitely stay here again

2 night stay.

Large comfortable room and staff were good. Problem was the noise. On Saturday night they had a DJ in the bar and the music carried through to the restaurant. Was so loud I ended up sitting outside as I found it unbearable. Could also hear the music in my room. Not overly loud in my room but enough to keep me awake. Would stay again as good value for money but not on a Saturday night. Also I found room quite dark as no main light.

A pleasant stay in a nice clean VFM hotel but unwanted hassle at check in when initially being told we did not have a reservation and hotel was full. It transpired they had booked someone into wrong room so was sorted but after a long travel was poor admin by check in staff.

Lovely, clean, and friendly hotel.

A lovely, clean and friendly hotel. We had a standard room which although lovely was a little too small for us, fine for 1 night but would book a larger room next time. Nice, well maintained hotel though.
