Great location, warm atmosphere, friendly staff and very quiet rooms

I liked everything. Kettle so close to bed so didn't need to go far. Just used bottle water that was in room. Shower was great. Bedding was clean.
Maybe needs a touch of pain in the bathroom door and skirting but all good bar that. The noise was a bit loud from party goers and cars etc. which is just me not being used to it in the countryside so it's not hotels fault.
Wonderful hotel, great location, friendly staff, very comfortable room.highly recommend

Central location, very good facilities and great breakfast
Gym was in essence not existent. It should be improved.
cleanliness was great, finally received 2 towels unlike other hotels.
there was only 2 house slippers and 1 set of toothbrush provided when there was 3 guests checked in. the receptionists also weren't really friendly when we requested for more slippers or for housekeeping (after 12pm).
We requested a quiet room which was great as the hotel is so central I imagine being at the front would have been noisy
Location
I paid for an upgraded room and ended up in an accessibility room. The room was no where near what I was promised for an upgrade. In fact it seemed to me like a paid for a downgraded room instead. Emailed the hotel and got no response. Bed sheets had stains on them and rips room still had rubbish in it and hadn’t been cleaned.
Good fresh freerange eggs
Toaster did not work well. burnt one side or didnt toast the other. Orange juice was not juice.
This is our go to Hotel when in Newcastle. It’s central to where we socialise in the city.
Nothing.
We were able to check in early which was very much appreciated. We were also able to add breakfast on at checkin with no issues. The receptionists were very helpful and informative. We got extra tea/milk dir room with no issues. The bed was comfortable like sleeping on a cloud after a long day of sightseeing.
As above
Really enjoyed, the extremely comfortable beds, great breakfast and the fact we could return from shopping and sit in the reception area and have coffee before leaving
Clean room, excellent variety of food for breakfast Excellent central location
The cleanliness, modern interior and the little touches like the tissue box in the bathroom and a bottle of water.
It was expensive for one night but it was the GNR
Excellent clean and just like others I have stayed at
No parking
De ligging was uitstekend, midden in het centrum.

This hotel is amazing me and my husband come alot the staff are so freindly and its a gorgeous hotel with lovely food and drinks also. It was my husbands belated birthday treat and the staff made our room up and decorated it with balloons, a note on the mirror cake chocolates and also 2 free drinks they cant do enough for you! Xx
There isnt anything we didnt like because we love this hotel. Location staff cleanliness everything is 10/10.
Hotel ligt erg gunstig, in het centrum, op loopafstand van het centraal station.
Wij kwamen eind van de ochtend aan en konden onze bagage niet achterlaten bij de receptie omdat de ruimte voor bagage helemaal vol was.
Comfiest bed ever
Great location. Very comfortable Hotel and the Staff were very friendly.
Nothing.

tired hotel in need of a refit. Not very clean. Staff do a decent job
Nice staff, Good Location
Our stay at Maldron Hotel Newcastle was extremely frustrating and uncomfortable, with basic standards completely overlooked: Inappropriate Room Allocation & Zero Flexibility: We were assigned an accessible room without requesting one. While these facilities are vital for guests who need them, they are impractical for able-bodied guests—the sink and mirror are positioned far too low for normal use. When we went to reception to request a room change, we were bluntly told that no other rooms were available, with zero effort to accommodate us or offer any alternative solution. Hygiene & Cleanliness: Housekeeping was well below acceptable standards. The bedroom carpet was filthy to the point where walking barefoot left visible dirt on our feet. Worse, the drinking glasses provided in the room were unwashed and dirty. Bathroom Maintenance: The shower had an active leak and very weak water pressure, making it deeply inconvenient to use. Damaged Bedding: The duvet had a noticeable tear along the side, which shows a serious lack of quality control. Between the substandard room condition, poor hygiene, and lack of customer care when addressing our concerns, this was a very poor experience. We definitely will not be returning.
Great location, really nice hotel
Very clean nice room staff Very helpful 👌
Lovely hotel, very friendly and efficient staff, great location

Some staff could have been a little more friendly / accommodating
Fantastic, central location.
Clean and comfortable
Expensive parking at car park which rip you off if you pay for 24 hours but book your entrance times and exit time and I’ll over 10 minutes out of these times they charge you Extra even though you’ve paid for the whole day
Staff very helpful and courteous
Nothing to dislike here
Everything was just so easy check-in check-out ordering room service (love the robot butler) very very comfy bed location great breakfast fab can’t fault it
Excellent communication wth the staff, particularly Victoria, who always welcomed us at reception with a smile and was proactive as soon as we arrived with suggesting local activity we might enjoy - and did! I particularly recommend Victoria's suggestion of Jesmond Dene - a nature reserve with woods, waterfalls, a farm open to the public and play areas.
Lovely hotel
Looking out into inside area of windows and walls

Everything lovely friendly staff , clean excellent location
Nothing very accommodating
As this was for my mama 65th birthday and she never gets to have time with just my dad as they have fostered children for 25 years, the manager of the hotel provided a free upgrade to a exec king room, and there was a personal happy birthday message wrote on the mirror in the room to add to the occasion. Thank you so much
Sehr freundliches Personal. Tolles, großes Zimmer, geniales Badezimmer
Alles gut
Great location lovely hotel .
unfortunately there were noises from pipes in bathroom during night and from outside we were at rear of building don't know if was deliveries or bins but was noisy at times including early hours with view of a roof which can't be helped hard luck.
The hotel is all really clean and tidy. The breakfast selection is also really good apart from no pancakes.
They didn’t have pancakes at breakfast :(
La posizione è buona perché in centro anche se la sera non è frequentata benissimo. Il letto comodo e la colazione soddisfacente
In generale un albergo standard senza grandi sorprese né positive né negative, comunque una buona soluzione e un buon rapporto qualità/prezzo
Good location, modern interior
We arrived around half an hour before the scheduled check-in time due to our travel arrangements. As there were already several people checking in, we decided to ask whether our room happened to be ready, rather than storing our bags and having to return later. We were told that no double rooms were currently available for check-in, which was slightly surprising given that the official check-in time was less than 30 minutes away. We were instead offered an accessible room, which we accepted as we had plans within the hour. The room itself was perfectly fine, but it did seem unusual that the double rooms were not yet ready so close to the advertised check-in time. I would also hope that by accepting the accessible room, we did not prevent someone who genuinely required those facilities from being accommodated. Overall, this was a minor issue, but it was something we found a little surprising.
Great location, good security, large clean room and bathroom. Would stay again.
Our tv didn’t work but this is all.
great location and clean rooms as well as kind staff
the room was clean although a big window requested we were given a small one with a view into a courtyard unfortunately
Great hotel really friendly lady on reception lovely room and great location
Room was warm and the air con kept knocking itself off throughout the night which unfortunately kept us awake.
Perfect stay. Lovely breakfast
Only stayed one night
Modern hotel and great breakfast.
People next door screaming, shouting and knocking on doors the second night we couldn’t sleep so left early in the morning
Excellent location, good facilities, and really nice sized rooms. Didn’t have the food but looked nice bar offered really good options.
Very very noisy outside the hotel needs some soundproofing, we had to buy earplugs. Bed was a bit too soft and the pillows were awful.
Hôtel toujours aussi propre, je suis déjà venu en avril et c est toujours un plaisir de revenir, je recommande fortement cette Hôtel qui reste très bien situé en ville, très très bon petit déjeuner ainsi que les repas au restaurant, un délice. A bientôt j espère
Rien, dommage par contre que le personnel ne parle pas le français, , j aurais bien voulu plus communiquer avec lui car il semblait très sympathique et professionnel, mais bon ce n'est qu'un détail.
I booked breakfast on the door card, and it was suppose be taken before 0200am, I woke about 5am and checked it had not been taken, I phone reception and she said she will collect it. The receptionist went beyond and above her duty, Thank you.
Breakfast card wasn't taken by appropriate staff.
Excellent breakfast, helpful courteous staff, clean fresh room, good facilities, excellent location
Breakfast was hot and tasty, the sausages were amazing! The breakfast hall and facilities were in a clean state. The beds were very comfortable and I slept like a baby. The room was spacious.Good lighting. The bathroom looked very modern and clean.
Stain on the top edge of the duvet Clumps of dust in bathroom extractor fan. No Netflix on TV.
Room clean and facilitys were good, modern and a nice shower, Hairdryer/Iron/Ironing board in room, also Tea and Coffe
Only thing was no fridge in the room

Perfect location. Amazing value via Booking Genius Level 3. Good breakfast. Very quiet in room. Check in and out easy. Love that they email when your room is ready.

Lovely large room, very clean and a comfortable bed.
Alles is super geregeld daar en de ligging was perfect
Korte bedden
We've stayed at Maldron a lot in the past, it's in a good location and a quick walk from the train station.
It's probably the worst night's sleep l've had in a long time, the double mattress in room 102 needs to go In the skip, it's long past it's best. The breakfast is usually a big plus, on this occasion l feel it was let down by the sausages which were undercooked
Location is ideal for shopping, restaurants, bars and travel either by bus or train
There wasn’t anything we didn’t like
Only problem was only one coffee machine queue was long , and no beans out when I was getting my full English breakfast, other than that very happy with our stay
Great location, spacious room and comfortable beds. Very friendly and helpful staff at the counter, cleaning crew and restaurant staff. The cookies in the room are yummy. The breakfast is superb!!
Slight intermittent smell in the bathroom, possibly sewerage issue. But it’s minor.
Second visit and everything was great. Central location, great breakfast, helpful staff. 😊
Good location, friendly staff, reasonable cost, really easy to get to the station and into town, and the front of house team were great.
The mould in the shower, the small rooms, the Aircon that turns itself off in the early hours, the TV's. It was all just tired and in need of a refurb.
Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Loved being able to hire a bike for free. Location great too.
As explained to staff at the time, I was forced to clean out the hair trap in the shower as I was in there at the time and had to finish off. It was completely full up and disgusting. Do better.
location
Un hotel relativamente nuevo y bien cuidado. Habitaciones de categoría con clase. El personal siempre dispuesto a ayudar y orientar a los huéspedes nuevos. Mucho mejor que el Premier Inn que está a 300 metros.
The hotel is really nice and modern. You can check in online. The room was clean with neutral decor, the bed very comfortable and I liked the big shelf in the bathroom for all my cosmetics. We had lovely, tasty breakfast and good coffee.
There is no hotel parking, so you have to find somewhere to park. It wasn't a problem for us but it could be inconvenient for someone else.
Great location and breakfast.

Ideal location short walk from the station , very friendly helpful staff , spacious rooms great breakfast amazing value for money
There wasn’t anything I disliked
Location is superb, within a minutes walk from Grainger market. We were kept informed pre arrival and given chance to either check in online or at reception on arrival. Chose to check in online and staff at reception were friendly and helpful,. Was informed about 40 minutes before our planned arrival time that our room was ready. Beautiful, clean reception, foyer, lifts, corridors and room. Superb room with an inner view, not the atrium but nevertheless there was nothing to give any noise and disturb our great nights sleep in a super bed with super mattress and crisp, clean sheets. The bathroom was lovely with tiled floors and walls, a walk in shower with rainfall head and a detachable shower head, body wash, shampoo in the shower and hand wash at the sink and a full wall mirror. As mentioned we had a totally undisturbed nights sleep and that was with the window open. There is air conditioning in the room but I don't like air conditioning so it wasn't used and in fact, it wasn't needed. Superb stay and we will return.
Being really picky there was a slight stain on the carpet near the bed and the long flush on the toilet sometimes needed an extra stab as it seemed to stick slightly and allow the flush to slowly continue but, once you've done it you just hang about for 5 seconds and see if it needs doing and in this crazy country in a world which is speeding to it's own destruction I'm sure everyone and anyone can spare 5 seconds and if you can't you need to take a long, hard look at yourself.
Goede ligging, baggage opslag, vriendelijk personeel, fijne kamers.
Wat schimmel in de badkamer
The room was big and clean. Staff are nice and helpful. The location is very good. The pantry on the first floor better provides cups and glasses. Anyway, it is very generous to provide some hot drinks for customers.
Great rooms great location convenient
No real complaints price of food and drink is a little steep
Great room and location
Steep bar prices
Location Quiet Comfortable Breakfast
No fridge in room
It‘ location is great: in the heart of Newcastle, close to the metro and the main train station and the Gateshead stadium. The staff are friendly and helpful. They serve a mediocre breakfast, but it does it‘s job. The rooms are spacious and clean.
As it is in the heart of everything, there are many guests who have had a nights out with plenty of booze and fun. This can get a bit unnerving. But the staff make sure, that everything stays safe
Great location for enjoying the city centre. Very clean, good sized rooms and comfy beds.
Bar area in the evening struggled. Both nights dirty glasses piled up on bar and bar staff extremely flustered and as a result a bit rude.
Comfortable bed and pillows, excellent en-suite, very clean, good-sized room, easy check-in/out.
Room very warm despite AC (was not very powerful) - difficult to sleep.
The hotel very clean ,room so nice and comfortable,the hotel location is so good and the staff very friendly and kind especially at the front desk Victoria and Jame were very friendly and helpful. It was very nice and comfortable experience.
