Reviews and Ratings
This hotel offers a cozy environment with comfy rooms, but some furnishings are stained. The free-standing bath in the ensuite is a nice touch. However, the double bed provided was a bit small for my liking. The location is convenient with easy access to Newcastle town centre and the metro centre, although the local restaurants were a bit lacking. The service was decent, notably with attentive housekeeping and laundry service. The dining experience with fresh, organic products was a delightful surprise. The facilities overall were satisfactory, but the stained furnishings were a letdown.
The hotel offers stained furnishings in the rooms but provides a free-standing bath in the ensuite, with a brilliant beautiful conservatory location close to the metro center. The dining experience includes home-made bread. Friendly staff enhance the housekeeping service, though laundry could be improved.
