I stayed here on the Saturday before the Great North Run, it was booked in June after my previous hotel cancelled my booking. So i was relieved to find this hotel, but horrified that it cost £213. This hotel at best is a £40 a night place.
I'm surprised it passed fire safety regulations as the room was completely wooden panelled.
The excessive noise from the hotel bar kept me awake. When that stopped drunk locals and traffic kept waking me up.
The room rate excluded breakfast, but that was probably a good thing judging by the rest of the hotel.
The receptionist was nice, but that doesn't benefit the experience of staying.
The rooms habe women's names rather than numbers, which was amusing.
However, I wouldn't choose to stay here ever again and only did because it was the only option available. Unless you are in this specific area for a reason it's not worth staying there and Newcastle/Gateshead is so small you could easily stay elsewhere unless there us a major event on.

Just a cheap overnight stay with my son for Uni open day. Room was basic, and overall in need of renovation compared to what you expect in other cheap hotels. But staff were friendly and Hotel was easily commutable to Newcastle centre by taxi. Don’t expect the ritz, it is what it is.

Short overnight stay for event in Gateshead. Friendly, comfortable, clean and less than half the price or other hotels in the area.

The furnitures are too old.
The bathroom is too small and the pressure of the shower is not good enough.
The terrible aspect is that the building is too close to the road, and the noise coming from the passing vehicles is very uncomfortable.
The worst of it all is that the room/the bed vibrates whenever bus or big vehicle pass the building, and I felt unsafe and uncomfortable through out my stay.
I suggest that government needs to look at the spot of the road that causes the buses and big vehicles to vibrate the building while passing.
Honestly, I felt very unsafe, very uncomfortable and very unhappy staying in this hotel.

Very cheerful, polite and friendly staff. Room was very comfortable. I didn't go out really, but saw endless streams of buses to the Newcastle area passing by immediately outside where there was a convenient bus stop

My stay at this hotel was an absolute nightmare, the noise from music playing at full volume downstairs right up to the small hours of the morning was deafening.
The hotel appeared un maintained, dirty and looks nothing like in the photos.
Did not sleep a wink on Friday and Saturday night.

Staff is welcoming and friendly. (They dont even mind repeating 😂 because that accent hits hard..).
Those room pictures that are posted here are nothing that, our was.
Cleaning could be a little bit detail oriented..
Above the coffee table, on the ceiling, were cobwebs.
Bathroom, - the water pressure was bad, the hot water heats up very slowly. The walls were with plastic boards in which there were holes. It was scary to take the shower, because if you need to hold on walls, then you can demolish. No heater there, bathroom was ice cold.
I had previous experience in UK with bathroom water pressure, so that wasnt suprise.
Location is alright. (Stores, such as ALDi & Metrocentre are 20min walk).
It's quiet at night. Beds comfortable.
It would be nice if small upgrade be done to apartments and update the location information on google maps because we were circling around private sites almost for an hour..

The room is small, but comfortable. The staffs in the reception are polite and helpful, but the driver of the shuttle bus is normal.

The room they initially moved us to was different from the room i paid for and it was noisy and it had bad drainage at the bath tub,we couldnot sleep all night because of the noise but the hotel staff said he cant do anything till morning when manager arrives,i called in the morning and spoke to the manager he moved us to the room i initially saw when i was booking,the room the manager moved us to the next morning was more comfy and quiet, the staff were polite,a tiny bone like pin punctured my right leg near the bathroom so they need to check the carpets to make sure no bones or sharp objects.

Nice little Hotel in Gateshead area around 7 minute drive from Newcastle Center. Single room was large with sink and tea and coffee facilities. Comfortable bed and room was clean. The only major gripe I had was the shared shower which had virtually no water pressure.

Down to newcastle for the rugby stayed at the royal hotel for one night. On arrival the people there could not have been more helpful and friendly, as we were away for the rugby and would not be back unitl late we were allowed to register early and collect the keys from the bar on our return. Bit of a climb to the rooms, my room was comfortable and plenty of room. Only down side was not a great deal of pressure from the shower other than that i will be using the hotel again. Bus stop right outside the hotel with a regular into town every 15 minutes or so at a cost of £2.

Worst bed I’ve ever slept in, now back home in agony on painkillers my back is so bad. Unbelievable really haha
Not a bad gaff for someone like me who travels the country an has to pocket for his own hotels, this type of place is the backbone of the U.K. serving us grafters with cheap digs etc
Wouldn’t dream of taking ya bird here like or family, the shower upstairs didn’t even work I had to shower in the gym for a few nights.
Even so, the gaff was ok for the price I can’t moan but wow that single bed has absolutely wrote me off
