    Room was dated, could do with a makeover. Breakfast was a buffet and not hot enough.

    Location is next to the train station and within easy walking distance of pubs and restaurants.

    Server in the bar had an odd manner about her. We returned to the bar near to closing. She was angrily stuffing straws into the holder on the bar, no concern for hygiene/cleanliness/infection prevention as she touched the top of every straw with the palm of her hand and tried to make a joke about her anger issues. In the bathroom there was a very dirty towel left on the back of the door.

    Location was good, parking in train station car park was very reasonable. Although room was located at the front of the hotel, noise was not an issue.

    Small room for a double, no view from the window, bathroom a little bit dated but a good shower. But.... a great price, 2 nights for £145! I would absolutely stay again but would probably upgrade the room. Fantastic location for train travellers, bars & shopping.

    Location, lovely staff

    * When I arrived at 5 pm, there were no towels in the room * It took a very long time for reception to answer the phone when I rang about towels * It was quite pricey for what it was (though to be fair, it was the night when the lionesses were playing in Newcastle)

    * Location * Comfortable bed * The fact that there was a normal number of pillows on the bed, rather than the heaps and heaps which now seem to be fashionable * Grand architecture

    Excellent location for city centre, St James' Park and, obviously, railway station. I always appreciate a bathroom with bath as well as shower. Excellent buffet breakfast. Very welcoming, friendly reception staff. Very good for solo traveler/short stay.

    Room was slightly smaller than expected and appeared to be in the attic or loft due to sloping roof, also meant TV could not be fully moved to face the bed. Could hear the trains from the nearby station of left the window open.

    The location was excellent and right next to Central Station, very close to the city centre and all of the sites, restaurants and bars. The bedroom and bathroom were very clean, fresh bedding and towels, free tea and coffee provided.

    Very tied. My room wasn’t very clean. The bath was dirty and damaged. The room was also much smaller than a premier inn or a travel lodge.

    I don’t like the extortionate rates that are becoming commonplace . Parking should be included /or at least subsidised . And more check in staff at 3pm wouldnt go amiss . And at these rates would expect a cooked to order breakfast available . However Newcastle a great city and has great traditional cafes if 👀around I had to be there for an event and the hotel industry takes advantage of that . Not a good policy for the bigger picture and excluding a lot of people before they start .

    Location . Traditional hotel with history sadly getting fewer and fewer of them around .

    Bathroom floor tiles were loose, damp patches on the ceiling. Plumbing needs sorting. No ease of access for very heavy cases, which I had to heave up two flights of stairs.

    The leisure facilities are basic. The pool was cold and floor was wet and muddy. I’m very pleased we brought out slippers down with us. The rooms are huge and the bath was luxurious and big, it’s just some finer details are lacking or missing - there’s tiles need fixing and noticeable damp but it’s a stunning old building, and for the price - put up and shut up, enjoy the stay!

    I loved the history of the building, the beautiful staircases and big room. Spacious and comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly and couldn’t have done more.
