Pros: Quiet but very convenient location. Tucked away in a pleasant backwater, a 4 minute stroll from the railway station & less than 10 minutes walk in to Durham City Centre. Lovely, big rooms & en-suites, large beds, great night's sleep & wonderful breakfast. Very clean - the whole establishment was immaculate. We also had lunch & dinner there - very good menu choices, well-cooked, excellent quality & reasonably priced. Real ale available & the bar/lounge area is spacious, clean, comfortable & very inviting. Friendly staff. Will definitely be returning on my next periodic visit to Durham - a great find. When I initially booked, I received a prompt personal message direct from the hotel regarding my proposed check-in time & parking arrangements, which was very reassuring.

Pros: Very nice pub with good food and selection of drinks. Central location, easy to find, free parking onsite.
Cons: The lighting in the room is a bit dim. The shower could be better: water flow is not regulated, only temperature. There was also no shampoo, only hand wash gel.

Cons: Only 1 real ale on (& 1 real cider) when I visited, but this could reflect overall volume of sales.
7.1 Good
Pros: Bar area close to rooms
Cons: Noisy room, downstairs rooms a lot better Staff party going on (don’t know if they were staff from the facility or not) but having a late Xmas party were very loud and one bloke was very crude, toilet talk at the bar in ear shot of us eating. Food was bad, chips were raw. If it was their own staff then very bad. Was going to use this as my once a month business base but won’t be returning

Cons: I think to be fair, at this very reasonable price it would be very picky to point out shortcomings. My only real input is that the mattrasses could have been slightly better quality, but all in all, I was satisfied with the stay.
