I didn’t like that we picked a good specifically yet on arrival got told they’ve give us a different room which me and my partner both thought it was a massive let down compared to the one we chose

Location was ideal for everything - 2minute walk to river, bars and restaurants. Lady at reception was very friendly and gave us some useful information as this was our first visit to Durham. Very quirky building and the individuality of each room was special We stayed in The Cruise room - felt like we were staying on a ship with all the porthole features lovely furniture and map covering whole ceiling was intriguing to look at. 👍Breakfast was lovely and fresh and good value. smashed avocado with poached eggs on sourdough toast was delicious.

5.0
Lovely Georgian building ideally situated in the city, quiet street but short walk across the bridge to shops, bars and cafes
We recieved a friendly welcome upon arrival from lady on reception and were given the keys to our room in the Bjoux loft room.
Albeit on the small side, (clue is in the name loft), it was perfect for a short stay as a couple. The room features a comfortable Queen size bed, wardrobe, kettle, electric fan and a modern en suite with walk in shower. Rooms are tastefully decorated and very clean and also had air con which we were grateful for given the balmy summer evening it was when we stayed!
There are two sash windows (cannot open but didnt need to) with nice views of Durham cathedral in the distance which overlooks the city
There is a cute little bar next to the reception where we had a drink in the afternoon, and to the rear of the property there is a restaurant and small beer garden though we didnt use it during our stay.
There isnt anything we can think of at all. We were impressed and satisfied with our short stay here and would recommend to others

4.5
The way it is presented. it is so refreshing to experience something a little different! the staff are so, so lovely and can’t do enough for you xx
I have to say the hot tub was super, however, it was way too hot. I ordered eggs Benedict for my breakfast however that wasn’t the case. It came with bacon instead of ham and no asparagus. I also asked for a portion of mushroom. They can with pepper corns mixed in which I really dislike. my friend got a full English though and it was amazing!
3.5
Great location close to the cricket ground. I was able to work from the bar area quite comfortably but the hotel isn't really set up for business travellers.
Didn't manage to sleep terribly well which may have been no fault of the hotel. Room was very warm which was thoughtful - usually when we come to Durham we are cold!
