"Lovely up market hotel. The room was very big and spacious. Not much of a view though, but in all fairness we didn’t book a room with a view specifically. The hotel is ideally located a couple of hundred yards from the train station and close to pubs, restaurants etc."

"A very impressive property and we very much enjoyed our stay. The staff were excellent, friendly but highly professional"

"Has character "

"Brilliant hotel, facilities and staff"

"Always a nice stay. Stayed several times. Yes it's a little dated but the beds are always clean and comfortable and the price is appropriate. The staff are always lovely. We'll be back again :-)"

"I had good sleep. The lady making breakfast very friendly makes you feel like home. I booked one day and then added another night. Good for the price, I had to ask for pillows the one was in the room wasn’t to my liking . "

"Very good value for money, friendly and helpful staff. Good location for visiting Durham."

"Nice clean hotel "
