Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, some of which feature charger ports by the beds, as well as having tea and coffee facilities. The hotel's location offers convenient access to the city centre, with bus stops nearby and only a short walk to the Gateshead Interchange; the availability of early check-in is also a plus for some. Many guests enjoyed the generous portion sizes of the English breakfast. While some found the soundproofing could be better, the rooms generally offer windows that open.

warm welcomeaccessible receptionvery clean roomloose sink
The staff's warm welcome. i was delighted to find the 24/7 reception so accessible and helpful (a true blessing for late-night arrivals). the room was very clean. Everything felt fresh and inviting. i found the tv easy to use, no complicated settings to navigate.
The sink in our room felt a bit loose. I worried it might detach from the wall.
