Lovely comfort stay.
The location was easy to walk to the city centre. Breakfast was fab.
Bigger towels would have been perfect.

Toller Ort für einen Besuch in dieser schönen, alten Stadt!
Das Hotel ist eine alte Architekten-Villa am Rand von Durham, aber noch in fußläufiger Entfernung zum Stadtzentrum und zur Kathedrale auf der anderen Seite des Flusses. Die Lage ist ruhig, das Haus sehr schön, das Frühstück toll - was will man mehr?

Overpriced, claustrophobic and extremely low ceiling made whole experience very uncomfortable.
Staff very welcoming. Breakfast and the breakfast room very good. Overall decoration of the remainder of the hotel was nice. Room was clean Nice view over Durham.
My room was incredibly small. I was placed in the loft conversion which I believe is the same price as the remainder of the double rooms and was definitely not made clear prior to booking. I am 5'5" and could not stand up in the room the ceiling is that low, cannot count the number of times i hit my head when moving around so mostly walked around hunched over. Room facilities were ok the bathroom was nice (at least you could stand up straight in it) nice that there was a fridge and microwave as well as kettle provided. No blinds over a significant portion of the windows so woke up early by the light and as a result did not sleep well. Internet temperamental. Netflix/disney/prime that were stated to be included did not work. Felt like all of the furniture was just too much for such a small and low ceilinged room. Overall felt very claustrophobic and overall stay not comfortable or relaxing and would not have booked room if I knew it was a tiny attic room Also not too much of an issue for me but the hotel is situated at the top of an extremely steep hill even for Durham so if you have any mobility issues would need a taxi or car to get to the hotel.
