Unfortunately whoever had prepared the room had left behind the dirty pillow cases from the previous guest on the floor. Apart from that we had a perfectly fine stay but than again we only stayed one night.

I booked a room at The Town House months ago for a surprise for my Husband on our 10th wedding anniversary. The room was pricey at £176 but I had seen some fabulous photos on facebook and I thought it would be worth the price. A couple of weeks ago I contacted the lady at the reception desk and asked if I could upgrade because I had seen better rooms with breakfast added at cheaper prices on their facebook page. The receptionist was very helpful but pointed out that as I had booked through hotels . Com there was nothing I could do but kindly said that if any of the luxury rooms were still available on the 24th August they would upgrade and make it special for our anniversary. We also booked Sunday lunch at the town house. We arrived at the hotel yesterday and was shown our hotel room. It was very disappointing. The room was small and quite frankly grotty . The ceiling was water damaged with plaster and paint missing and it was all very worn . When we went downstairs the guy on the desk asked if everything was ok with the room . I said I was very disappointed as the room was far below the standard we were expecting and nothing had been arranged to make our room special for our anniversary as promised. The guy at the reception apologised and told us that the hotel has changed hands . He also told us there wasn’t a chef now so there were no Sunday lunches. This was the first time we had been informed about this. Later on our shower leaked into the room below.

We were amazed by our stay at OYO townhouse. We stayed in Le Jardin room and know Durham well. It surpassed all expectations with a truly gorgeous room with a beautiful that was also very private. The hot tub was super and lit up lovely in the evening/night.
The service was exceptional and we were well looked after by a range of people. The hotel bar was really lovely too and we enjoyed this before and after meals. We were lucky enough to get engaged on our stay here and it made the whole trip even more memorable. Nothing to fault from the whole experience!

Myself and husband thought we would book in for our 12th anniversary when we arrived we didn’t get a warm welcome it was dull and miserable we got showed to our room when we arrived inside the room it was cold the room was dark and dull only one window was to be open if needed as the other one had a sticker on it saying it need’s replacing then to find loads off small hairs in side the bath tub as we was just about to take a shower it was disgusting definitely hasn’t been cleaned properly when checking out in the morning there was no one on the desk we waited for 15 minutes! We left the room key on the counter as we had to dash of I wouldn’t be in a rush to return to this hotel definitely not worth the money it’s such a shame this hotel has gone right down the hill it used to be beautiful and clean since new owner have taken it over it’s definitely not the same we didn’t enjoy our stay we was very disappointed!

We had a lovely stay at the townhouse, wand stayed in the garden lodge and it was lovely, very clean and trendy.
Wendy at reception couldn’t do enough for us, she was so helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend and we will definitely come back!

From my very first contact with the Town House I was impressed by the friendliness of the staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The room itself was beautifully furnished -if a little dark and I would have welcomed a reading light as the
'interior design lamps' gave little light
Would certainly go again the next time I visit Durham

Very central, lovely room with patio door onto a small terrace and nice views. The only negative was the overwhelming scent of air- freshener. We only stayed one night and didn’t have breakfast (not included) so can’t comment on food or service. Would have been good to have a coffee maker as indicated in the information.

Quirky, friendly small hotel handily placed for access to Durham city, without parking problems - street parking available across the road. We were lucky to be upgraded to the Penthouse, an amazing room. Huge comfortable bed, fantastic bathroom. Breakfast was delicious too. Thank you for the welcome and service during our overnight stay.

Aside from a leaking tap, the room was perfect for our needs. Very much "Bijou" but no complaints. It is what it purports to be.

Quirky room, we stayed in Midas. Wallpaper peeling in places and just looks like it could do with a freshen up, but still clean. Door handle broke when we tried to leave the room in the morning, room telephone wasn’t working so had to use our mobile to call reception, and the man was prompt in coming up to free us!
2.5 / 5.0
Gorgeous room, lovely decor, wonderful deep bath and helpful folk on reception.
Minutes away from all the fun stuff. Some noise from the road outside but minimal.
Room is beautiful but has some signs of wear round the edges but who cares, it was comfy and gorgeous.
4.0 / 5.0
The room was amazing, really romantic for our first wedding anniversary, and the decor throughout was great. My only gripe was there wasn't a lot of horizontal space and my wife had to sit on the floor to do her hair and makeup as that was the only spot near a plug socket and in front of a mirror however we would both definitely stay again

Very stylish decor and in a great location. Ryan on Reception was outstanding.. although our room needed some TLC to justify their 5 stars.. bathroom was titchy with no space to put toiletries.. wardrobe small and bedside light didn’t work. Bed very comfy and lots of hot water.
0.5 / 5.0
Extremely dull small room with shoddy cheap interior. Terrible smells coming from drains made room almost unbearable to sit in . Food was poor & the bar was a joke . 3 gins Gordon’s & beefeater.
Not one malt whisky. How can you rate this hotel with 4 stars, it’s a total joke . Easily one of the worst places I have stayed

Very good stay however when booked online I chose my preferred theme of room and was given a completely different one to the photo I chosen

A very enjoyable stay in a very individual & beautiful hotel. The owner and staff were very helpful, especially when they upgraded us free of charge to the fantastic Hideaway room. The parking is off site but within 25 yards directly opposite the hotel and was very cheap.

From the moment we arrived we had a fantastic stay the room we booked was lovely, but we were upgraded to the penthouse room which was amazing huge bathroom with stand alone bath and walk in shower. The staff were fantastic couldn’t do enough for us. Would definitely stay again.

Nice location, parking situation was beneficial - Service was good. We was in the Cruise room which was clean and tidy. Only issue was the shower would not cool down to a useable temperature, even after letting it run for over 10 minutes, so that was disappointing. Also no toilet roll was in the bathroom on arrival.
1.0 / 5.0
The place was ok. Strange decor but each to their own taste.
We had a small room at the top which was ok. Creatively constructed attic room.
The room was ok but elsewhere throughout the hotel there was a strong smell of damp.
The air freshener used throughout the public spaces was a very nasty artificially scented product.
Decided not to stay for breakfast.
