Nice room which was clean, warm and comfortable with a modern en suite bathroom which had a good hot shower. The staff were very pleasant and the range of food in the evening was good as was the quality. Parking can be a problem but through no fault of the Hotel. Good value for money.

Lovely hotel in this Northumberland beauty spot. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The rooms very comfortable with everything you need provided. Dinner on our first night was wonderful but huge portion sizes, less so on our second sadly with a tasteless curry for my husband but the staff apologies and took this off the bill. Overall, I’d highly recommend this hotel but avoid the curry!

Brilliant pub with rooms. The room i stayed in was huge, with a lovely large bathroom and sofa/tv area. More like a suite than a double room. There is a very good food menu and the restaurant also offers takeaway. They were completely dog friendly, not just "dogs allowed", making sure her every need is met. They were very trusting with guests, allowing us to walk through the bar area after closing, to enter or exit the property. Super clean

Friendly staff on arrival and room modern and clean, with great shower and nice toiletries. Unfortunately TV would not work on our first day and - even though we reported it - had not been sorted by our second and final day, which was a bit disappointing. Asked about it when we came back in the evening after a meal but lady on duty was - how shall I say - a bit worse for wear and couldn't help. Other than that had lovely cooked breakfasts both days and Alnmouth itself is beautiful. Hopefully we'll be in a room with a working TV next time!
