Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Our stay was very good. The room was very spacious but could have been cleaner. I have lung disease and there was a lot of dust under the sidebourd cabinets. It certainly hadn't been hoovered for awhile. The outside area of the room could also have been maintained. There was a door leading out to a seating area. We didn't have a seat but the rooms the otherside of us did. The outside was grubby and hadn't been looked after so weeds had taken over but it would have been a nice place to sit. Around the outdoor pool area could have been cleaner. I know this is a large hotel and hard to maintain but it is 4 star and you pay 4 star rates so expect 4 star treatment and cleanliness.

Disappointing

I had high expectations of the hotel based on reputation and cost but it was not great. We were attending a charity ball event and had taken a bottle of champagne for drinks in the room beforehand. The hotel would not provide ice bucket and ice for bottles brought in by guests. Breakfast buffet was almost empty with 20 mins to go. And the staff seemed to be generally unhappy. Customer experience was just not so great…

I heard really good things about Ramside hall but when I arrived my expectations were lowered. Upon arrival, the staff were great, couldn’t fault them. When I got to the room, the room wasn’t great, lights didn’t work, wardrobe was absolutely full of dust, coffee stains on table, carpets stained and there was also stains on the walls. I asked for the room to be checked over, which they did, when I went to the room the second time everything was still the same as before. Was very disappointed, won’t be going back again.

Lovely stay

We had a lovely stay at the Ramside during our recent trip to Durham. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the facilities were amazing. The spa was lovely and the three restaurants to choose from were all brilliant.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE

We booked our stay at Ramside Hall as it’s an ideal spot to stay whilst visiting family, unfortunately we had the most awful experience, there was a wedding being held there which we was unaware of until we came out of the restaurant on our first night and was bombarded with groups of loud women and lots of children running around, we then decided to find a quieter area of the Hotel to sit in, when going back to our room and during the night when trying to sleep some or all of the group of loud woman and children were staying in rooms opposite ours, the noise and banging of doors seemed to go on for hours, the second night was even worse as it was the evening of the wedding party, more continuous noise and banging of doors which was still happening at 4am which then led me to ring reception to ask if they would tell these people to be more quiet and show some sort of respect to others, these people were still continuing to be so loud and rude the next morning at breakfast so we decided not to eat ours, we will not be returning to this hotel as it’s been such a horrendous experience we still can’t get over it, one of the managers did say he was sorry but when we checked out the girl on reception didn’t have the decency to apologise just asked us what we had planned for the day she clearly knew how upset we was. It’s not the staffs thought but they should however think very carefully where they decide to select rooms for visitors not near very loud disrespectful people.

Room was brilliant, definitely opt for the premier rooms, spa was okay. Feel like for the price of the rooms you should be give full access to the spa not just the 25m pool, sauna and steam room (which was always very full for the 1hr access you get.
