£90 for a triple room.. As 3 women going for a one night break we required 3 beds, a shower and a toilet so we didn't put much thought into our bookings and though £90 was reasonable. £90 was a disgraceful price to charge for the horrible room we had. The room was very dated which we would have accepted... More

The location itself justifies good value, as its over looking the tyne. There is a smell from the tyne however when the tide is out....but out of the hotel's hands! Newcastle city centre is easily accessible by foot on quite a lovely walk along the tyne, which on sunny days is lovely. The hotel looks pleasant from the outside, the... More

Stayed here over a weekend in March 2013 with friends. Located a short taxi journey from Newcastle centre (£6-12 fare) the hotel has several rooms on multiple floors. Staff were generally friendly although didn't go out of their way to help. The rooms were terrible. On walking in they look recently decorated in relatively modern fashion and were spacious, however... More

We held a wedding reception style day, 3 course "Wedding breakfast" and what can I say... 53 ladies all amazed. And over 100 people enjoyed the evening too. The food is perfect &... More

Stayed here for a night on 2nd February. It is located on the riverside through an industrial estate in Gateshead, which seems a strange place to put a hotel but none the less for the price I wasn’t going to be put off. On arriving there isn’t much parking available so I suggest get there early, place does look at... More
