Access to the beach and views across the Tyne watching the ships arrive and depart perfect. The breakfast was not as promised on the menu and service much more dismissive and disinteret / rudeness by surpervisory staff not on a par with previous vists .Croissants, fresh fruit , choice of yogurts and other pastries non existent. No apologies or alternatives offered and if you were opting for soley continental breakfast tinned peaches, prunes and toast not very appealing and definitely not as advertised. For a weekend stay even more disappointing. Needs to get back on track.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. Restaurant is really nice with a great outlook, very short staffed, the food was nice but cold, husband had ate his gammon before receiving his vegetables which we had to ask for. The worst bed I have ever slept in, small hard and lumpy, no sleep. Location is really nice, but we won’t be back

Wonderful Stay

Me and my wife really enjoyed our stay at Little Haven, the location of the hotel suited me as I'm a ex seamen, so the views of ships departing and arriving were fantastic, you can also enjoy nice strolls along the promenade and easy reach of south shields. The room we were staying in(212) was a little foisty and cold when we checked in, I did mention this on the app, the hotel responded by freshening up the room for us which we were most grateful for. It was very quiet at the hotel, the breakfast on the morning was excellent and service at the restaurant was great ,as was the reception staff who answered all our queries. parking is free which is a bonus as most places now charge you. i would definately be returning to this hotel. thank you all for a great stay.

Honest review

It was ok. Main rooms including dining were a little cold so when eating you felt uncomfortable. Room was clean however for the standard we chose was ok but had issues.As the bed was uncomfortable the bathroom was very clean and smart however the toilet handle fell off and we had to use another rooms toilet.Overall we would go back as we like the position of the hotel next to the river.
