"It’s Lovely venue, we arrived late due to traffic congestion on M6 , (think the Hotel Sign just off the Motorway -should direct via the A6 it’s a much better road-than the very rough track -a nightmare from B road- Sat Nav Directions-!,). Breakfast was lovely, Bed Comfort excellent - as we arrived late I was concerned we might wake others as floor boards in room were creaky, we were not at the Hotel but a few hours but very impressed with the place and over the top .helpful day manager and Staff (on 2nd if August)if we venture North again we will certainly stay again -hopefully longer next time-. Feeling of a taste of Luxury, With impressive surroundings and Friendly Helpful -staff . In fact everyone we met were relaxed and commented about the historical side -other people passing through- ‘it has character’, Well Established . "

"Right from the friendly welcome by Tom, my stay was fantastic. I was travelling myself with 2 young children for a family funeral in the area. All the staff were friendly and very good with the children. They were made to feel very welcome by all the staff. We enjoyed a meal in the evening. Good choice for adults and children. We also all enjoyed the buffet breakfast too. "

"A hotel with history which was central to the centre of Durham. The staff were helpful and welcoming."

"Friendly staff, comfortable room, excellent dinner, lovely setting"

"Lovely hotel room, nice furnishings and decor. Staff were very helpful at breakfast with gluten free options being taken care of. Hotel building itself was stunning - especially bar and restaurant. "

"Very slick check-in with staff who clearly know their job, are all over the systems and clearly want you to have the best stay possible. Robes and slippers are available to use if visiting the pool or spa. Spacious, quiet room with tea/coffee making facilities and quality toiletries. Choice of pillows and large comfortable bed. We ate in the restaurant both evenings. The food choice was wide, well cooked and presented invitingly. However, the waitress who served us both evenings obviously knew “the drill” of her role, but in reality was far from assisting you to have a positive dining experience. She was going through the motions and really gave the impression that she did not want to be there. She did neither take nor act on criticisms seriously, appearing not to care if you enjoyed your dining experience or not. She chewed , presumably, gum throughout the service and was extremely sullen at all times. This is a very comfortable hotel and gives very good value for money."

"Bright, spacious room in this lovely hotel. Bar area works v well and it’s nice to be able to sit outside. Excellent central location means you an walk everywhere. Highly recommended."
