Nice hotel, room a let down.

Hotel is in a good location and is well serviced by local bars and restraunts. We were given an accessible room (not at our request) where the bathroom was a wet room with an adapted shower that went 4ft high, when your 6ft its not ideal. Other then that all was ok.

Great location within 15 min walking distance of train and bus station. The Junior suite was perfect for us - king size bed plus a comfortable sofa bed. I loved the fact that the sofa bed area was separated from main bedroom by a sliding door for privacy. Room equipped with microwave, small hob, fridge, kettle & toaster and enough cutlery, crockery etc for 3 people. Situated on the edge of Chinatown theres lots of Asian dining options - Japanese, Thai, Cantonese etc. A huge selection of bars to choose from in the area. Great location for shopping too as it’s only a short walk to Eldon Square shopping mall inc Fenwicks, John Lewis, Sephora etc and Grainger market. If you’re a football fan the hotel is across the road from St James Park. The hotel bar caters for fans too - matches are screened on every wall - even at breakfast time. We would definitely stay again.

Good location, approx 10-15 mins from the station and just opposite the football ground. Room (suite) was large, comfortable and clean. It could benefit from air conditioning, but there were two fans in the room.

Also breakfast even tho again a good variety but found the cooked food to be poor quality ive had better at much cheaper hotels and one last thing mirror in bathroom and by the side of the bed had big cracks in them i wouldnt let this revue stop you staying in this hotel as they do have cheaper rooms and the staff were very freindly and polite ive just stayed in better hotels for much less money .

Okay overall, however heating system very inconsistent - worked for 10 mins a day. Mattress was very uncomfortable and uneven. Though being in city centre, very loud music playing even at night. Wardrobe door was very wobbly and almost coming off. Room way too humid, poor ventilation. Extractor system in bathroom was super weak, after showering walls were soaked and ceiling. This humidity also travelled into the bedroom because of the door, leaving windows and mirrors very steamy. No regular room service? Had no information about this either. Was also meant to be a king bed as advertised on this but ended up with a double bed, which was very disappointing as a taller person. Did not access the fitness centre/ bar or use laundry services during our stay.

Gone downhill since last visit

We booked this hotel because we have previously stayed there (Dec 24) and it is dog friendly . The good part of the hotel is that it is dog friendly but thats the only good part. The room was small and was not cleaned during our weekend stay, the safe in the room was locked and i asked for it to be unlocked but they forgot and i had to ring reception a few hours later to remind them. They did unlock the safe but it jammed against the sliding wardrobe door which would not fully open meaning you could not get your hand in the safe. So i had no where to leave my valubles whilst doing the GNR. The bar area , what can i say, Sat afternoon plenty of staff but ignoring customers on one side waiting to be served. The Sunday night after the run and a busy night in Newcastle. Last orders was 9pm . What on earth and no signs, this is not the first sandman to do this . It is a shame because this hotel is ideally located.
