The Kingslodge Inn is in a great location, close to the train and bus station and the city center. With a full service restaurant and bar, and breakfast being included, it was great. The food was very good and the service all round was great! I would highly recommend staying here.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Staff were friendly and the hotel, location and bar area were good. Unfortunately there was a group of very noisy people sat outside on the benches after midnight for a couple of hours on both nights of our stay just outside our room. This kept us awake and will stop us rebooking this hotel for future visits.

Very clean hotel and friendly staff

Stayed here for 2 nights. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Upon arrival the housekeeper helped my mum upstairs with her bag. The rooms were extremely clean, so special mention to Fiona for this. The hotel is handily situated for the town centre and train station. We ate in the bar both nights and the food was good.

As always a warm welcome from the staff there. Clean neat and tidy with good food and well priced. Just the right distance from the bright lights of Durham City, very walkable but quiet once you’ve walked back to the hotel. Ideal

After the chaos of London it was kind of magical to come up here and be surrounded by greenery and footpaths…the inn has a back garden where you can sit and drink their excellent beer and just relax. We saw the whole city in a few hours and then we really enjoyed just reading quietly here in the pub, a perfect reset for our week.

Don't stay here if you like TV in the bar, fruit machines, etc. Stay here if you like free car parking, pleasant surroundings, peace and quiet, good food, friendly, helpful staff and a clean, comfortable, en-suite room that comes with a good breakfast, a pleasant stroll from the centre of the city of Durham. It's like pubs used to be years ago, but without the darts and dominoes! Thoroughly recommended!

Bad experience

Shabby decor to actually torn/broken seats. Breakfast service was atrocious, food running out mid service time and cooked food still hadn’t arrived after 45 mins so had to leave without it ( had paid inclusive rate)
