Comfortable bed, lovely large window, room size ok. Shower a bit mouldy but otherwise cleanliness good. Towels a bit small. Breakfast booked for specific time but not ready on time, with grumpy service from kitchen. Front of house staff were very friendly and helpful.

This is a good place if you want to try the British Pub as Inn experience. But the internet only worked downstairs in the pub, our room was small and had a nice view of the cathedral but you had to look past the neighbors garbage cans to see it. At night, the door out through the pub is locked and you have to come and go through the back door, down the fire escape and through the trash cans. No making the bed or fresh towels either. A friend's room on the front of the hotel was much nicer. Breakfast was good. If there was bed making, a larger room, and internet, I'd probably give it 4 stars.

Staff is friendly and helpful. Their food is excellent. We had breakfast lunch and dinner in their pub. It is a bit noisy since the rooms are above the pub. But it is quiet after 10pm. The worst part is the shower. It is so small that a person can barely fit in it. There is no space to put the shower gel and shampoo. And there is black mold along the connection between the shower wall and shower basin.

The hotel was in a very good location with a nice friendly bar and staff. Room was very basic and quite noisy with the air conditioning system or heating outside the window.Expensive parking nearby and the breakfast was very disappointing,no jam or butter left out for the toast and sausages were under cooked.

Stayed for 3 nights and couldnt have found a better place, all the staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was really nice and set us up for the day, had a meal in the pub 1 night and can honestly say its blew us away how good quality the food was. Full marks to the chef first time ive stayed somewhere and they can do a decent poached egg.

Good location if you come by train

Location is right outside the road to the station and close to the town center. The Barman / receptionist was friendly. Bar had good beer and was quite crowded for a Wednesday night. Room was basic but did the job. A bit old and not in the best condition. I took the 8am train, which is before breakfast was served :(

We had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and the room was very clean. We had both breakfast and dinner, they were REALLY good. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Durham—we will definitely be staying here again our next time in town.
