Reading other comments about the hotel before I stayed there, I thought it was going to be a scruffy hole, however I was pleasantly surprised! Upon arrival we were greeted with well kept hanging baskets and a neat enterance, it's just a shame that the receptionist wasn't all that helpful.

We had stayed here before a few years back and were a bit concerned at the poor reviews that had been posted recently.

Lighting in the rooms is terrible, e.g. no light above dressing table, hairdryer on opposite wall to the mirror. Beds are so uncomfortable and the duvet is so... more

The hotel is situated on a round about and is only a 5 minute walk from the town center and the Alnwick Garden and... more
