Three 50 lads enjoyed a night at brewery here and then a night out in the toon. Great size room for 3 and for price was great value! Full English Breakfast was ok but I’d say a tad pricey. Staff in bar were fab.

Great for Newcastle Airport - Quality Beers

Very attentive, enthusiatic team running check ins and the bar/kitchen. Rooms are a little tired, but the location is great. Huge courtyard and plenty of indoor seating for dining/drinking. Beer battered Fish and Chips highly recommended with a pint of Prince Bishop. Food, Beers and accommodation all very good value.

Was extremely disappointed to find there was no WiFi in the room I enquired at the bar to be told that it didn’t reach as far as the room but I was welcome to work in the bar area. Not ideal for working or streaming considering the room info said there was WiFi.

Made to feel so welcome

Staff were amazing and accommodated my late arrival and still made time to make me feel very welcome. Room was spotless, had everything I needed, quiet comfy enough bed and amazing shower. Rooms could do with a refurb but reflected in price.

A very restful stay and a great breakfast

Outstanding hospitality. My room was clean and comfortable and quiet - everything I needed. The hostess was very helpful with checking in. Breakfast was delicious and fulling with plenty of coffee to start the day. Additionally, I forget my phone charger and by prior night's lodging. The hostess was kind enough to track down a charger from the staff and charge up my phone to get me through the day. Thank you!! Great Hotel, Great Staff, and Great Food!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was clean, comfortable and spacious if a bit dated. Food was lovely and service was great. Only criticism I have is that we had a triple room but there were only two mugs and two tumbler glasses.
