this is the 4th or 5th visit to the Staybridge in Newcastle and once again the room was very clean and well maintained. I used The Den to work as there is limited desk space in the studio suites. Breakfast was much improved on earlier visits

A good place to stay although the £8 per night parking charge is high on top of the price of the rooms which are quite expensive to start with

I've been working in Newcastle on and off for the last two years, and in that time I've tried just about every hotel in the city centre. The Staybridge is the best of them all. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for. It's a rare hotel that isn't just a place to sleep, the Staybridge aims to be a home from home, and it does it well.

The staff are all friendly, professional and approachable. The rooms are large and clean, with excellent cooking facilities and comfortable beds. There is barely any noise at night. The car park is right outside and has plenty of spaces. The wifi connection is free and faster than most, the cable TV includes the Sky Sports channels, and the air conditioning works.

There's also a gym, if you like that sort of thing. You're more likely to find me at the evening reception drinking the free wine!

Really like this place, stay on each of my work trips to Newcastle. It's so good to be able to visit Marks and Spencer's for a nice ready meal and lounge in front of TV without having to go to hotel restaurant and sit on your own. Always friendly, polite and efficient staff - feels like home, which must be good when spending a lot of time away!

This was my first visit to the Staybridge Suites at Newcastle upon Tyne. The location is not too bad with excellent on site parking (£8 per day but cost reduces the longer you stay). The River Tyne is a short walk away and you can walk into Newcastle City Centre within 10 minutes.

The staff are welcoming and attentive and the room I was given on the third floor was a one bedroom suite. This was well appointed with good furnishings. Essentially it was a one bedroom flat complete with fitted kitchen (including dishwasher).

Wifi is available throughout the hotel and this is complimentary as is the daily breakfast. As I'd been travelling on business prior to arriving in Newcastle I took advantage of the excellent laundry facilities on the ground floor - lots of washing machines and tumble dryers. There is a well equipped gym on the ground floor as well as a small shop.

I would recommend the hotel to anyone staying away on business as it really is like a home from home. For those looking for a base in the city it would be excellent for a city break.
