The staff were excellent. Really friendly and professional. However, after booking, you find out the gym is an extra £15; per visit! Had a filthy hand towel in my room. The tap came off the sink and the toilet didn’t really flush. Mixed bag.

Working Away

Receptionist very friendly and helpful, breakfast and snacks served in the leisure suite - separate building. The rooms were RED hot, too warm. I had very noisy guests above me, the hotel couldn’t change that. But it did sound like a heard of elephants were above me - all night. Shower rather than a bath, shower is a power shower and was good, Elemis body wash and hair wash in rooms Hotel very central for North East and easy access to A1/major routes

Hotel was okay itself, the spa may as well be completely separate business. 1 mins walk from hotel. Lots of paperwork to do on computer if you want to utilise day pass of spa facilities at £15 a go. Facilities were okay. Breakfast and cafe wasn’t great in truth. Close by was a Dunelm cafe much better.

Bathroom problems

Room was clean bed comfortable. Bathroom was terrible. Toilet wouldn't flush. Reported to reception immediately, told to push both buttons, this made it work, but obviously a known problem. Sink tap hjad no handle and was very loose in the sink. Reported on feedback form. Reception came to room at 1030pm when we were already in bed. We reported the problem the next morning, reception said it would be sorted or we would be moved to another room. On returning the evening reception did not know anything about it. Offered a room change, but as we had a long day we just put up with it as we needed to go out immediately. Very disappointed as we had paid £75 a night for a poor experience.
