Great location, lovely staff
No where comfortable to sit with a view, or in the sun; either a bit school canteen or dark and unwelcoming.

Very Central and friendly staff. Jess on reception was very polite and friendly. We left very early in the morning and the night porter was a wonderful helpful young man.

Excellent location, very helpful and friendly staff, breakfast was very good each morning, food was well prepared and service was excellent, served with a smile, room was spacious and the bed was very comfy. Bathroom was superb. Room was very clean and the hotel was very clean all over. We will book again if we are down in Durham again
Very hard to say as I could not fault the hotel in any way!! It was a very good three days in Durham.
4.4
Great building, great location, nice staff. It’s a grade 2 building which can be a nightmare to convert but it has been done very well.
Bedroom was great but the bed was way too hard. I sleep on a futon and I thought the bed was too hard, must be a nightmare for the average bod.

Staff helpful. Room comfortable and food excellent
Room next door blaring tv out at 2am. Night reception dealt with this quickly though

Superb staff, very clean and great central location
Rooms were lovely but dark. Very little lighting. Made it very hard to see.

Breakfast was very good , good choice and quality of produce
Room was lovely- ability to add more light would be helpful eg getting ready to go out
4.4
breakfast was excellent with good choice of food and very good service
the room was spacious and comfortable - there was a problem with the heating but it was sorted to our satisfaction
excellent location - easy walk to cathedral, castle and river
heating not working in our room - it wasn't fixed but we were given a good discount on checking out
4.4
The decor, the Christmas atmosphere with a live singer. The amazing staff and extra bits in the rooms that add comfort.
Can’t really be helped but just make sure you time it right to get a car parking space. The Marco Pierre restaurant also isn’t up to par for the price.

Location; building
Restaurant food was disappointing. Dinner was not very good and cooked breakfast was precooked and reheated.
We paid for a superking bed plus cathedral view and were given neither until we complained and were moved from the second night. We were not offered a refund for the amount we overpaid. We were given free drink vouchers as an apology but the restaurant would not take them to pay for a glass of wine.
Check in was efficient but rushed and unfriendly.
4.4
The decor, cleanliness, location. Rooms fab. Coffee shop in lobby. Lovely restaurant in hotel.
Can’t fault it. Had a lovely stay. Will definitely return.

The hotel itself is beautiful. The restaurant is stunning at very good.
We got a terrible room for the money we paid. It was below the main sidewalk with a tiny little window so it was very dark and damp.

I like the interesting building, and how our room had been decorated.
The fact that everything had clearly been installed with a tall man in mind - shampoo and shower gel a bit too high in the shower, light switches a bit too far up and so on.
Also, there was no min ceiling light in the main part of the room, so when it was dark or the curtains were drawn, it was very dark in that room.
4.4
location was good and plenty of parking
very poor air conditioning. room very hot with sun shining in.
poor view over the car park
no where about from small cafe to sit and relax
4.4
Great location. The building was beautiful and loved the cards to get access through the corridors so it was safe. Breakfast was nice.
The room we were in was quite noisy on the top floor from noise of the fans outside of the window.

Soundproof should be improved

historical building, central location, great room for breakfast, bedroom comfortable
staff was not helpful on finding a parking spot. in the end better to park in the street than use the parking of the hotel.
