Right next to station - Pool a bonus!
Hotel right next to station. Hotel a bit dated. Bar was expensive. The gym, pool, sauna and steam room were excellent. I would stay here again.

Good service, great staff
Three-night trip over a weekend. We've stayed here before as it's so handy for the station. The service and staff always excellent and rooms comfortable. This time we had buffet breakfast too which was good value if you book it with the room.

My new favourite Newcastle hotel.
Lovely place full of period detail.
Staff excellent, and the spa was a huge bonus, given the price.
It's small, but I found it comfortable and not too busy.
Bed was great, shower decent, good sized room and general facilities were excellent.
Breakfast was great, very tasty. Coffee was good too.

Beautiful
Got this hotel for a bargain on the weekend. The interior of the building is absolutely magnificent and the staff at check in were so friendly. Rooms are spotless, plenty towels and toilet rolls, a tiny bit dated but not worth moaning about. Thoroughly enjoyed it. The next time I travel to Newcastle I will certainly be staying here.
