I stayed at jam jar for a brief period, but I’m sure I’ll be using the rooms sooner rather than later again. Excellent and well maintained. Staff very friendly and food is great at the bar below. Highly recommend

The hotel is close to shops and several restaurants. There is parking but it is limited (4 spaces), however we didn't have an issue + parked easily. The room was comfortable and clean with a lovely bathroom. There is a TV in the room but it uses the Internet which was slow so we were unable to watch anything. We had a meal in the bar at the hotel + the food was lovely. All staff we spoke to were friendly + helpful. We would stay here again.

We had a great stay at The Jam Jar whilst in town for a wedding. We stayed in a studio room which was decorated to a great standard, and slept well in a comfy bed. Staff were attentive to any needs we had. Location is great too, very close to all sorts of shops, restaurants, bars etc. Parking on site is very limited, so definitely explore alternatives if thinking of staying here; especially if there’s any events on in the area. We would definitely stay here again!

Pros - helpful and friendly check in, great tea tray, big tv and massive choice of channels, comfy big bed, fan already in the room. Cons - limited parking (4 spots) on first come first served basis, located in student area so lots of activity but depending on your age that might be a Pro (lol)

The room was lovely and had everything I needed. Everything was spotless. There was shampoo, conditioner etc. The main downside was noise. The Jam Jar bar/cafe below was very busy on the Friday and Saturday nights I was there, with music and people having a drink outside on the street. If you are a night owl and planning on being out late and getting up late (brunch from 10:00) I think you will be very happy there. If you prefer to head to bed a bit earlier and want breakfast earlier than 10:00 then it may work less well. That said, there is a Cafe Nero just across the street which opens at 07:00 which is what I did.

2/10 Terrible

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was massive and clearly newly decorated. It was let down on the first night by the previous occupants filthy towels still being in the room. The other major issue with the room is the noise. The room is at the front of the hotel and the noise from the revellers outside and the sound system just below the room meant no sleep. There should be a new word for places that charge you to stay but you can’t actually get any sleep. On the plus side the staff were friendly and the cocktails were delightful. Avoid if you want any sleep at all.

Lovely, modern, comfortable room and a perfect base for my son’s graduation. Staff were great. Would have given five stars, but the parking situation was disappointing. One of the reasons I booked was that the hotel advertised parking and I know that parking in Jesmond is hard to come by without paying NCP prices, however, when we arrived the parking was full. We ended parking a 30-minute walk away. If more parking was available, it would have been five stars for sure.

We stayed for a night and enjoyed the comfy bed, great location for central Newcastle, friendly staff and the handy parking space was a bonus. We enjoyed a drink in the bar and visited the nearby pink lane bakery for a pastry in the morning too.
