    The location is great.

    The check in staff were unpleasant. The car park is very expensive. Breakfast buffet is very average. Bathroom was dirty.

    7KerryPosted on: 2-20-2026

    Helpful staff and excellent family room

    Mould in bathroom

    10DianaPosted on: 2-19-2026

    Lovely comfortable room. It was easy to control the temperature. The staff were so helpful and friendly.

    Nothing!

    9KarenPosted on: 2-19-2026

    Warm friendly greeting and an upgrade to meet our early arrival. Spacious room with good facilities and perfectly place for an easy stroll into town. The bar area was great and comfortable seating. Parking on site a real bonus for a city hotel. Would definitely stay again.

    The quilt was very thin so on a cold night it was a bit inadequate we had to ramp up room heating. There was black mould in corners and under bath taps in the bathroom Needs some mould spray cleaning easily resolved with a bit of care.

    10SusanPosted on: 2-18-2026

    Excellent stay again , perfect location , rooms amazing - thanks for the upgrade and of course the reception staff always top class

    10BradleyPosted on: 2-18-2026

    Very friendly staff Easy to findClose to everything

    8FfionPosted on: 2-18-2026

    Loved the bed so comfy!

    Only had a very thin duvet - not really a duvet but a quilt. Had to request another duvet/blanket. Definitely would have really cold I’d we’d only had the thin cover on the bed.

    8GarethPosted on: 2-18-2026

    Front desk staff really friendly and professional. The room was fantastic. Short walk to Durham city. Overall excellent

    Parking fees hiked the costs. Price slightly reduced by staying at the property but still £11.00 per night. The room being serviced only on third day was disappointing, but extra supplies of coffee etc were readily available at front desk

    10KarenPosted on: 2-17-2026

    Excellent hotel in the centre of Durham, lots of parking, friendly staff!

    7JohnPosted on: 2-17-2026

    Good location.. friendly staff.

    Placed a room service order that never arrived.

    7PaulinePosted on: 2-17-2026

    Hotel in Great location, very central. Room spacious and comfortable. Good selection at breakfast

    Car parking quite expensive. King size bed actually 2 single mattresses zipped together and an oversize mattress topper made the bed uneven. I ended up remaking the bed myself.

    10StephaniePosted on: 2-16-2026

    Hotel was lovely, staff were all really friendly and very helpful. Food was delicious. All in all a great hotel and would definitely stay again.

    10MaskellPosted on: 2-16-2026

    Clean bed was very comfortable.. right in the middle of the centre bars and restaurants etc

    Nothing at all :)

    9HesterPosted on: 2-16-2026

    Excellent service from very friendly staff and a great location. Very handy having a car park on site. Dog friendly and many staff love dogs. Very comfortable bes

    The communal areas are abit tired.

    10RobertPosted on: 2-16-2026

    Excellent Receptionist meant we could check in early and make the most of the day.

    Nit picking really, but a slightly wider bed would be nice. But probably not feasible in the family room we were in.

    5LucyPosted on: 2-16-2026

    Great location, very friendly staff

    Used contact lens on bathroom floor. Stale croissant for breakfast.

    10Geordiepaul23Posted on: 2-15-2026

    We were given an upgraded room. Which was nice. Very close to Durham town. Just a short walk.Breakfast was great. Anything we wanted like porridge or poached eggs or scrambled they would make
