Frühstück war wirklich gut ! Personal sehr nett.
Die Zimmer sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen !
Staff in the morning for breakfast were great
guy at check in was not so helpful, rooms tired, not too clean, bar area/restaurant very tired and dirty. We were in a ground floor room, it smelled of damp/mould
Good location for GNR. Free parking and the price was cheap
There was a weird smell throughout the hotel and rooms but it did go after a while. Outdated but it was fine for our stay.
Location ideal for GNR, towels were lovely, staff were accommodating. Room was basic, but can’t complain
The accommodation was as expected, maybe the bathroom needs a little refreshing at some point
Quiet location
Small room and 2 single beds - bad smell in room on arrival
Location
Very basic, like a military block, hasn't been updated for many many years
Basic but had what was needed , very good shower
Very run down and in need of some tlc
The staff were very friendly and accommodating, I cannot fault them!
The rooms were very basic, with no USB charge sockets and two very distanced sockets (was okay for me on my own, but a couple couldn't both charge their devices without the devices being at opposite ends of the room. I understand surge pricing for the GNR, but £150+ was a little pricey for the facilities in the room
Location
Had to request to move room as it smelt of fags Booked way in advance with a baby and they put us upstairs without a lift The bath was grimy and bedding was stained on the next room and very off colour / yellow white
The bed was comfy staff was friendly it was central for what we needed. Free parking which was good.
The carpets needed a clean our room had a strange smell in it like mouldy stale smell so we opened the windows and it went after half an hour. Not sure if it had a lift we didn’t see one carrying cases up 3 flights.
Like the room enough space to walk around and the bath room was ok
The bed felt lumpy but it was the mattress protector it was to small for the bed also the pillows need pillow protectors I notice one of the pillows had yellow stains.
It was easy to get to and the room was good enough and the bed was comfortable
The check in early fee even though my room was all ready and waiting
Location was great and good value for money Rooms clean Great option if you are on a budget Free parking
Rooms outdated as older hotel Breakfast overpriced
The bed was clean and comfortable
Very old fashioned No sockets in room only one tv plunged in Um plug tv for kettles As for charging phone You can yes but no tv or kettle
Dated but worth the money.
Ideal location
The staff are very helpful and friendly, breakfasts are freshly cooked on demand (they're the best I've had because of that). The hotel is very quiet despite being near the A1M (perfect location and easy to find). Plenty of car parking.
It needs a refurbishment (I think that's happening in the next year).
Comfortable.
Outdated and basic. Tap broken and shower curtains older than me.
Staff friendly. Room clean breakfast was lovely
Bed was very uncomfortable. Bar area was drab and depressing
Close to family members
No lift
The lady on reception was friendly.
The whole place is run down, the doors to the rooms are battered and the room was tiny and just awful, wasnt clean, seen better days. There was strange people wandering the corridors and noise from the other rooms. It was a last minute booking for my husband and son, he couldnt stay there so we had to find an alternative so lost the money paid, we checked reviews before arrival and they seemed quite ok, it wasnt.. costly lesson learned.. some people may like it but it wasnt for us..
The room was very clean and a very comfortable bed breakfast was hot when served to us
There was nothing to not like
For a low cost overnight stay this met my expectations. Check-in staff were pleasant and efficient, the room was comfortable, location was ideal for my needs and free onsite parking. Of course the hotel is a bit dated but for the price I paid, and the purpose I needed (just a bed for the night) I was very happy.
Car park was a little untidy with some litter, but that didn't impact my visit in any way.
Fast and easy check in, friendly staff, very clean room
The location
The bathroom really let the place down
Location
Could do with a revamp
The reception staff was amazing was as helpful as they was able to. The housecleaning ladies/men who do the hotel rooms was amazing I left a note on 2 hotel room doors and they took them and was able to do what I asked. I was so happy and greatful me friend loved it

Everything
Nothing
Pleasant staff. Excellent freshly cooked breakfast.
The Staff were very polite, respectful and friendly, front area was clean and tidy.
The room itself, bathroom smelled musty, only one socket in the bedroom which was upside down and not connected so had to charge my phone in the hallway ( not ideal ) the coffee facilities only had two sachets of coffee, also couldn’t open a window even though I was on the second floor, so it became hot and stuffy, and found it hard to sleep. No lift for second floor or at least I never saw one or was told about one.
Nice hotel, convenient, good service, nice and clean. Comfortable bed and nice shower
Easy to find. Staff were very friendly and helpful
A little bit outdated
Good location, friendly
Cleanliness could be better and a little tired
Well located for access to the A1 and attractions such as Beamish and Tanfield Railway. Spotlessly clean and the towels were lovely & soft! Shower gel and shampoo by the bath/shower. Excellent value for money.
Breakfast choices were a bit lacking but it was a fairly minor point.
Slept great
Nothing
The room was clean
Both found the bed very uncomfortable. I booked this for our granddaughter and her mam. Will stick to premier inn in the future
Good location and price for a Saturday night stay for a party
Dated and the sheet had a rip in it but was clean and I believe you are getting a refurb
Home from home feeling especially friendly staff that made my stay lovely ,great breakfast.
I liked the whole stay and expierience , I didn't like leaving
The freshly cooked hot breakfast- but small portions
No problems and lady on reception was particularly helpful. Convenient location and pleasant area. Breakfast good and room comfortable.
The staff were most welcoming, attentive and helped in everyway they could
Room was too hot.
Great staff and good location off the motorway for my travel home, few people in the bar with the England game on which was also good
Not the property’s fault, more the corporate company. Due to a glitch whilst paying I ended up paying twice as my phone refreshed itself. I attempted refund through booking.com however the company refused me a refund for one room despite this clearly being unintended as I phoned immediately after it had happened.
Confidently situated with restaurants and takeaways near by
No lift so if you have mobility issues request ground floor
Staff were friendly and helpful. Was very comfortable and clean.
I have nothing bad to say about it
Staff were above and beyond, friendly and accommodating 👍

Perfect from start to finish
Nothing. Excellent
Clean and comfortable.
Hotel was tired and could do with an update.
Staff were helpful & friendly.
stayed before and use to be paid parking, now its free. got tesla superchargers in the car park. friendly staff and nice breakfast. The shower was like getting hosed down by a jetwash.
facilities need updating, but bed was comfy so cant complain
Staff very friendly and helpful. Room very clean. Great base for our visit to Stadium of Light - reasonably priced Ubers too!
No biscuits in the room - but totally understand due to the price we paid!
Nothing
False advertising men's bar toilets dirty rand out of beers 2 nights on the trot
Great location for work, decent price, friendly staff
Nothing negative, you get exactly what you pay for
The room itself was ok, although a little dated, and the staff were all very pleasant. I only had breakfast on site once but it was perfectly acceptable (full English).
There were no meals in the evening (although one staff member did say the evening staff would put a frozen pizza in the oven for me), which was far from ideal as I didn't have a car for the duration of my stay. There were a number of noisy drunks in the front car park past midnight (less than ideal when you have to be up at 0400 for work!).
Comfort
Location is good just off A1M
Real friendly staff from the afternoon through to the night staff
Convenient location
Tired and dated
I loved the staff (especially Steph who went over and above to try and get me early check-in as we were arriving from Ireland very early). Loved the breakfast and wee seating area with tv.
Room size was very small and no plug sockets near to the beds.
Location and the breakfast.
I was initially sent to an occupied room. I was shocked to see a gentleman upon entering the room and had to go back to reception. I was given another room without a sea view which was not I booked for. I found hair on one of the towels and by the sink and on the bed. I was too tired to go back to reception as it was almost midnight.
It was clean
The hotel was clean and staff friendly and helpful.
The hotel requires complete refurbishment. Furniture and decor is very outdated. The layout of the room was strange, two door when entering the room. The hotel needs better sound insulation. I can hear people walking up and down, talking in rooms next door. Rooms smelt damp and the carpet was sticky and needs replacing. The sofa in the reception area looks as though it needs to go in the bin. The restrant/reception was really strange and having the two together and again it all needs refurbishing.
The double bed was 2 singles bed put 2gether and our back were killibg and could sleep propley
If you book double bed should get double bed tha k all
There is ample parking facilities on site and it is free providing you enter your registration at reception on arrival. The staff were very pleasant, cheerful and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The rooms are adequate for their purpose with plenty of the usual facilities, teas, coffee, etc. The room was clean with plenty of towels. The shower was excellent, powerful and hot. The breakfasts were excellent, plentiful and cooked to order.
It would have been better if the hotel provided evening meals as the description on booking.com made no mention of this at the time of booking. Also there is a different rate for pre booked breakfasts, but again, there was no facility or mention of this on the description on Booking.com.
Friendly helpful staff
Nothing
Mirror in bedroom to high couldn’t see to dry hair. The entrance and stairs and corridor to room was not up to standard . Needs painting , it looked more like a prison corridor, was not inviting, but the room was a good standard and warm and clean, water was hot .
The entrance and stairs and corridor
Kitchen wasn’t open, wasn’t advised when made booking
Location
Cheap
Dated. Room was cold as the hotel did not bother to put the electric heater on knowing it would be a late arrival. Electric heater is far too small for the room
Breakfast fine Good value
Free parking was available. The cleaning was satisfactory
The beds were horrible. Internet was not stable.
