Great value, stunning old building.

A lovely hotel , booked a std double & got an upgrade to a suite , which great even if unexpected. The gym is very good. I ate dinner in the bar which good value, tasty & the service was excellent. The only minor disappointment was breakfast, there was plenty if choice but like most buffet breakfasts the hot food was plentiful but luke warm. I know why hotels do it because it’s a cost saving but so frustrating as everything else about the place was excellent. Not a deal breaker just a frustrating bug bare of mine

We stayed at this hotel several years ago and decided to return.Unfortunately, the experience this time was awful. The rooms are dated and with inadequate lighting. Breakfast was sub standard, buffet food more akin to a Little Chef. Cold, tasteless, terrible service, dirty uncleared tables, lack of plates and cutlery. Mugs on the tables, no side plates, tiny paper napkins.Dinner was ok, but yet again slow and inattentive service. Staff mostly students, poorly trained, reception was terrible due to rude argumentative and offhand attitude. We felt unwelcome and would not recommend or return again.

Gave a lower score for service because we had to wait over an hour for food and when it finally arrived, as it had been sitting under a heat lamp the pastry was rock hard and very difficult to cut into. The delay was blamed on a wedding taking place, sorry, thats not my problem, any possible delays to food should be communicated, so customers can choose to go elsewhere.

Our 3rd time staying at Dunston Hall and it was amazing as always! This time we brought our dog for the first time. We weren’t advised about £25 charge for pets until check out. More than happy to pay but informing us upon check in would have been better service. Other than that small issue, we had a lovely stay and will definitely be back.

Extremely overpriced for the condition of the hotel and facilities. The bed was very uncomfortable, there were two in our room and both mattresses need replacing, they were very hard and you could feel the springs. The rooms were not very soundproof so you could hear anyone walking past in the corridor, walking in the room above yours, opening doors etc. There was no hairdryer in the room which is very poor for such an expensive hotel, I was unable to wash my hair ahead of a wedding. The rooms need some refurbishment, there were paint and grout issues and the curtain pelmet was half falling off. The breakfast was nice but the service was poor. The grounds and hotel building are nice but overall I wouldn’t stay again given the poor facilities for the price of the hotel.

Nice hotel, helpful staff...good base for touring

We stayed for two nights in August B&B as part of a mini break to the East of England. All staff were welcoming and helpful. The room had a king size bed and the bathroom was large and adequately supplied. Breakfast was a good choice of pastries and hot buffet...dining at 8.15am meant we had no problem with queues or choice of food. The only thing that could have been better was the lack of air conditioning, as our room was very warm on both nights of our stay although a fan was provided upon request.

I wish we could have stayed for longer!

We really enjoyed our trip to Dunston Hall and our only regret is that we couldn't stay for longer! We were really impressed with the size of the swimming pool and the fact that there was a separate section for lane swimming. The breakfast was really nice, with a great choice and it was lovely to have a big bed to sleep in!

Lovely hotel. Room was clean and staff were friendly. But the door by the lift, located just outside our room, was extremely squeaky. Not sure who was walking around at 3 a.m., but the noise kept me up all night. Unfortunately, I couldn’t sleep well because of it. Hopefully it'll be fixed!!
