Good location, in fact perfect for the purpose of our visit to a wedding reception in Alnwick gardens, and within walking distance of the Baptist church
It is wrong to say didn’t like. The car park a bit restricted and disabled facilities
5.0 / 5.0
location was perfect
my only complaint about our stay was one member of breakfast staff. The waitress directed us to a table, mumbled something and then walked to the other side of the room. we wasn’t sure whether we were supposed to follow, but it became clear we had been ditched at our table. other staff were polite and asking guests whether they would like tea/coffee and toast once seated

Great shower.
Breakfast over cooked and bacon like leather. Staff disapproved if you wanted to sit at a different table. No shower gel, tissues. Telephone not available if wanting to contact reception, especially as we were top floor and no lift available. Stale smell in foyer, age? Dogs? Expected better for price we paid, would not return.

This is a grand old building full of character, particularly the dining room. The staff were very polite and helpful. The hotel's car park was handy too.
No complaints or dislikes based on our stay.

Loved the SS Olympic memorabilia’s . Breakfast was amazing.
Room was a little small with dogs and you had to go into the garden to access it with heavy doors. The car park was full all the time.

Breakfast was fine. Dinner poor especially the meat!!! Location was good and staff were lovely. They were the best bit about the hotel !!!
Drinks were rediculously expensive( £9.45 pluss 10% service charge for a glass of very average merlot) The main staircase was being decorated so to get to our room on 2nd floor we had to go through corridors and stairs to outdoors then back in a side door.

Food was consistently very good with a varied choice. Fish cooked to perfection several times. Good wine list. Staff friendly helpful and hardworking. Decor in dining room was outstanding( ex Olympic first class dining room) . Very central location. Although my room was at the front of the hotel, there was very little noise at night. Room had recently been refurbished to a good standard( but see comment about bed).
Personally I found the bed a little uncomfortable and would like to see the mattress and pillows replaced Can I suggest a pillow”menu”?

The bedroom was very nice, spacious and clean with a comfortable bed
There was a mix up with my reservation
I booked a dinner bed and breakfast package
When I checked in the front desk insisted that I hadn’t booked dinner and also the restaurant in the hotel was fully booked
Luckily for me I had a copy of the reservation
Bizarrely the front desk then offered 3 different dining times
At dinner I noticed the dining room was virtually empty, odd on a Saturday night

Breakfast was good.
The room was comfortable except for the points noted below.
Water pressure in the shower was low.
Noise from the road could have been reduced if double glazing were to be installed.
It was unfortunate that the coffee machine in the bar was out of order.

1.5 / 5.0
Staff were very friendly and helpful, easy to talk to and approachable. The ground floor restaurant and bar were good with breakfast choices being extensive and of good quality.
The bedroom was very dated and tired looking. Furnishings were aged and rather shabby. The bathroom was very cold and on the first day there was no hot water. The floor was very creaky and uneven.
The bed was very uncomfortable being two single beds pushed together. The mattress was very lumpy and thin with the springs sticking up so as to make any position uncomfortable.
Air conditioning units outside of the window were very noisy and the main extractor fan for the kitchen was positioned directly outside of the window. All in all a very disappointing visit in respect to the comefort of the room.
