Poor value at £189 per night room only.

Scott & Liz are fantastic hosts, going above and beyond for their guests.
The hotel is conveniently located for all amenities. It’s beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean.
Breakfast was awesome.

Room was tidy, but hot. Noise from the main road and guests conversation clearly could be heard from next rooms specially after midnight.
The worst part, no toiletries supplied. Therefore could not take showers for a couple of days. Even hand soap not supplied.

Another lovely stay. Welcoming staff who explain everything and show you to your room. Room clean and modern, albeit a little small. Everything you need. Parking is great in a quiet area. Breakfast superb

A real home from home, with a welcome that just keeps colleagues and myself to use the Clifton time and time again.

The service
10.0 / 10.0
Excellent service & staff. All staff found to be very friendly.
Breakfast menu good. Property about half a mile from centre of south shields with metro & bus stations.
Pleasant walks through local parks & along coast nearby.
Parking - widely available as free spaces outside along whole length of road & nearby side roads. Our car left entire duration of our stay as we made use of very good public transport. Excellent base for staying near Newcastle or travelling nearby.
Would definitely recommend as a suitable destination.

the Clifton is like a home from home, comfortable with quality beds, pillows and linen. best of all, the service is second to none.
I already have an other booking made for my next trip for business in town during June.

It is obvious that this family has had 5-star hotel experience. The room was beautiful, clean, and well-appointed. The food choices were myriad for breakfast, and I could see why the people of the city go there for breakfast, brunch, coffee, and lunch. The staff were friendly, and expeditious.

Probably the best hotel in the area. Wonderful staff. Prepared a vegan breakfast for us. Rooms a little noisy but normal for most hotels and I’m a light sleeper. Would definitely stay again if return to the area

The owners & the staff here were all excellent. However I think I was unlucky with the room I got… right at the very top of the building , sloping ceiling , i felt very claustrophobic .

Staff very helpful and friendly, free on street parking, loads of places to eat in the area (Ocean Road), handy for the seafront. The hotel itself was top notch and the breakfast room/coffee shop were lovely. Will definitely be back.

This is very attractive clean and well decorated hotel and the all the staff are very friendly and attentive. Calum met us on arrival and kindly carried our case to our room on the top floor.
The room was small but comfortable. The bathroom shower worked well but the cold water from the sink tap had a very limited flow and the extractor fan was not very efficient. The weather that weekend was hot and sunny which made the room very hot and with only a small top window to open not much fresh air. Although there is a fan in the room it did not make any difference. The continental breakfast was nice and the afternoon teas that we saw looked lovely. The hotel is in a great location with plenty of restaurants accross the road and the beach just a few minutes away at the end of the road. I would recommend the hotel and definitely book again.

Very nice hotel on busy road .The decor is amazing .Stayed in room 2 front room on main road .The bed was comfy , only downside was wooden surround on bed , must have banged our legs numerous times . The sliding door on bathroom /toilet was rather noisy and could hear upstairs sliding doors too. On arrival was met by owner I think ? And was greeted by him saying 'Youre bank card was declined ' after him trying to put the card through once again it worked .He never asked where we were from or how was youre journey ? We stayed for 2 nights and wasnt sure who the owners were .Plenty of staff at breakfast and the breakfast choice was lovely .The coffee was very poor and luke warm .Not enough milk in room either .On departure nobody asked how our stay was ?? The cleaner i spoke to was very friendly though .

Overall happy with the stay. Only thing I would change was hotel guests had a different breakfast menu from the coffee shop customers. The difference between options was nominal and in my opinion could have been absorbed into the price of the hotel stay.

Amazing boutique hotel! Very fashionable and confortable! Beautiful building. Staff was perfect. In an area with lots of restaurants. Top breakfast! I will give high review for the stylish decor! From the bed to the shower, everything was fantastic!
