Great location just under Penshaw Monument, in the middle of the countryside. Very good facilities in the property and very well laid out. Owner even set up a Xmas tree and lights for our stay - a lovely touch. We also made use of the cafe next door - they make an excellent cooked breakfast in the morning.

Very central for Durham City and surrounding areas.
Very central for Durham City and surrounding areas. Large free car park which was easy to manouvere. Hotel was lovely, rooms were large and well stocked with toileteries, hairdryer, iron on request which was brought swiftly to our room. The adjoining bar was well stocked with lots of different beers/lagers, wines etc. Food was available in either the bar or the Thai Resturant. Staff are very friendly very helpful, nothing was any trouble to them. Would not hesitate to return.

Set by the side of a busy country road in beautiful countryside close to the A1(M). Fabulous beer garden, plenty of parking and large restaurant.
We stayed in a beautifully appointed room but unfortunately this was at the front of the hotel and the traffic was busy. To be fair, if we hadn't needed the window open so wide due to the warm evening then this would not have been a problem to us.

the hotel was ideally located for where my son and i were visiting and not far from the metro shopping centre. even though our room looked on to the A1 it was not that noisy. rooms were spotless and had tea and coffee facilities and also information book of local attractions near by which was very useful for us as visitors

I'm disabled and the Hotel catered very well for me.
The whole area is a pleasure to drive around and the people are so friendly and helpful.
We always ate in the Hotel, the food is SO good.
The only thing to avoid is make sure your stay is long enough!

Now 53, I lived in Houghton le Spring for the first 22 years of my life, with many family and friends still living there. I can honestly say there is nothing for anyone in Houghton unless you are visiting friends or family. It's difficult to sum up a place in a few words, but with the single ATM in the town centre not working when we were there, most food outlets having a hand-scribbled note on the windows reading "Cash Only", and all closed shops on a night feeling the need to have steel shutters, sums it up for me. There are still lots of lovely people living in the town, but I really couldn't recommend it to anyone that doesn't NEED to visit!

Everything, night 1 I wasn’t in the room I’d requested but I spoke to reception and got a move on day 2 room with a balcony as originally requested. The staff couldn’t do enough to make my visit good even great I needed milk and sugar late on and they were busy when I asked but brought it to my room when they could. They were great with my grandson, always made an effort to talk to him about his day etc they went above and beyond. The staff are a credit to the Hotel all of them x
Near to dual carriageway, 10 mins north east of Durham. Spacious dining areas - wide menu choice at very reasonable prices, plentiful and of good quality. Excellent service and many helpful staff. Pleasantry decorated throughout. Warm bedroom with good lighting and decent TV. Complimentary tea, coffee and water. Separate access to bedrooms. Ideal for a couple of nights stay. There is a P&R only 5 mins away from the hotel: to avoid parking in the city.
What a great find this was, we needed a hotel for an event at Rainton Arena and this was perfect, modern, clean, great bar, comfy bed and delicious food, the icing on the cake are the staff, really friendly & couldn't be more helpful. We loved it so much we've even mentioned going back just for a night away!! :-)
Really big bed that was comfortable. Pillows that were more solid than the standard hotel pillow!
Powerful shower with lots of hot water.
On-site restaurant has great food, and fairly speedy room service delivery.
I would return, and I would recommend.
This was our first visit to this hotel. The staff were great nothing was too much trouble. We had breakfast and dinner at the hotel, which was excellent for taste and quality. Lovely cleaning lady who spoke to us every day and made us feel very welcome.
This is a very good hotel and superb value for money, way, way better than other travel chain type hotels that would be considered as there competitors. Very good Thai restaurant too which was a very pleasant surprise and delicious.
Staff where fabulous. Charlie on reception, was very helpful. I had a problem with my booking, I thought I had booked direct with the hotel. Not through booking.com. So I had to pay a bit more than I excpected.
