Sedgefield Hotels with Swimming Pool

"First room was in the new building,but we got moved as 356 wasnt dog friendly ?? We stayed in 358 in february for 2 nights with our dog so couldnt understand this , we asked for dog friendly and a sea view . Put us in room 131, this was in the basement ,room smelled of urine and the window had no sealant the wind howled through , we asked to be moved and also for a sea view, the girlon reception said there wasnt any, she was grumpy and un helpful. We were then given room 119.with a view of the carpark. This was very old and a cold room , the duvets are thin and could do with replacing , we stayed for 3 nights and made the most of it, we noticed sea view rooms empty near our room, but didnt feel we could ask the reception again after the frosty feeling we got from the girl on there . We ate in the hotel for tea with the dog we could only go on the tiled area 4 or 5 tables it was very cold in this area as it was near the main automatic door out of the hotel. Swimming pool was warm , sauna hot tub and steam room were hot , towels exchanged for fresh when you leave. We will stay here again as its a good location , but hopefully with a sea view room. "

"We all enjoyed the breakfast. We had meals in the evening two nights of our stay and would like to commend the waiter Mike who went above and beyond on his duties, very attentive, polite and courteous. "

"Breakfast could be improved. No Pastries on offer "

"Arrived for an anniversary stay with my partner and child.. upon arrival advised by local members we wouldn't want to take baby into the pool as it was like the north sea, the members have been complaining for weeks it hadnt been heated. The sauna and steam room were broken and the pool freezing. Considering it is a spa retreat destination this was shocking. We were told an engineer had been called but the members and attendees were out spoken saying they pay monthly membership and it has been broken for weeks .. Other couples arroved at the same time for spa breaks with the spa having no functioning sauna steam room or pool "

"Breakfast very standard self service. Bar didn’t open in the morning as advertised "

"Short break for a birthday. From the moment we arrived we were well looked after. Our room overlooking the river was very nice, somewhere to hang the towels etc in the bathroom would have been a good thing. The spa was good and clean throughout. The food in the evening in Josef's Restaurant was very good and plentiful and there was a good choice for breakfast in the morning too. Overall the staff were very good and we would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for a stay in Durham. Looking forward to returning."

"Toilet wouldn't flush so called reception and the receptionist allocated another room for me.Thank you"

"Not far from Darlington town which was handy. The hotel its self is great and good value for money, Gym is also very good for a Hotel gym. "

"The staff were delightful, and thecrooms extremely spacious and comfortable. Recommended for a decently priced stay a few minutes' car away from Durham. "
