We really enjoyed our visit here. Everything about this hotel is first class. I cannot fault anything about it. The rooms are excellent and the staff cannot help enough. The hotel is in a good location in the centre of Durham. Highly recommended.

The hotel is very close to the town centre and you can park in the car park for £7 for 24 hours, and easily walk to all the main attractions. Bathroom was spotless. Breakfast was very good and included Craster kippers... More

Check in was quick,... More
