stayed 2 nights for a short visit to Durham and surrounds.
Excellent choice of hotel.Newly renovated superior room on 4th floor ,very spacious,clean and bright..No complaint whatever apart from heavy safe placed loosely on floor under desk top.Food in restaurant was very good especially breakfast choices,and staff only too pleased to deal with a couple of awkward requests on our part. Especially Daisy,Dan and all staff we spoke with.
The location is central and within walking distance to many destinations. The rooms are comfortable.
Moreover, the electric car charging stations on the premises were very useful."
Room was a good size. General property was in a good state, pu lic areas clean, fresh and pleasant.
Within 20 minutes walk of the cathedral and majority of restaurants/pubs.
Spa / pool was underwhelming.
Excellent staff. Very comfortable. Good choice for breakfast. Very clean. Very good location for the centre. Although quite busy no trouble parking - reasonable rate too. Only issue we had was we had no hot water. They had a burst hot water pipe on our first morning, although I appreciate nothing could be done whilst repairs going on we received no notification or updates about this
