Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Spa staff were lovely and very accommodating.
Long waits in the bar restaurant but food was good.
Not entirely sure my wife didnt get bit to death by bed mites, she has bites all over the sides of her face from the pillow, I travel with my own pillow so NO BITES.. my wife unfortunately is coverein bites..
The bathroom had mould in it and we requested a move to another room which took place; the lockers in the gents changing room were dirty and in the ladies changing room there were flies; in the swimming pool the ceiling requires attention and showers next to the steam room the pannelling was curling up and dirty; we reserved a table in the restaurant and later informed that it only served breakfast and had to eat in the pub where the food was average and attention needs to be taken concerning peoples clothing which had food stains on them which is not a good look. The whole property is somewhat tired and requires investment. The staff were pleasant and listened to our request concerning the room.
This should not be advertised as a 4 star hotel. It looks great and the staff are fantastic. The rooms are falling apart and are dirty, needing upgrading.
No bar after 7 pm which means a trip to the pub full of football fans if you don’t want to sit in your room.
Restaurant is advertised as being upstairs with a view - it was in a conservatory next to the pub. If it is raining you need a coat to get to it.
Breakfast was tiny and limited.
Restaurant was very limited in choice.
This is not worth the money - save yourself the expense and get a premier inn

The property is in need of some basic maintenance and the rooms could do with an upgrade. But the staff were great as was the facilities.
We wanted to give a balanced view of our stay. The upgrade we requested was not available so we were given an alternative near the spa which was unfortunately noisy due to other guests. Upon request the receptionist was great & sorted us a suite which was quiet. The suite had a bit of a strange layout. It had 2 bathrooms, one with a shower & one with a bath, but the lounge area did not contain a tv. The sofas were a bit dirty so we didnt use it. The showet over the bath would fluctuate in temperature which wasn't good. We didn't use the restaurants for evening meals. We opted for the full english breakfast. The only part which was well cooked was the poached egg, all other items were either under or overcooked. Other guests have mentioned that you only get 1 slice of bacon, 1 sausage, half a tomato etc. It costs £24 per head and it really wasnt great . I was also shocked to see a £6 supplement for eggs benedict & other dishes which you can order in other establishments locally for under £10. The choice of cereals was good but pastries were limited. We looked at the menu for the linden pub & thought it was expensive for pub style food. The public areas are elegant & clean. We walked around the grounds which were lovely. However, the entrance driveways need the potholes repairing. We were saddened to see the state of the conservatory on the back of the property. That could be so lovely if restored. We really felt the hotel needed a bit of tlc.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The hotel and facilities is old and tired, needing maintenance and renovation. Some parts (bathrooms, corridors and swimming pool/leisure facilities) require paintwork and retiling to bring it up to the usual MacDonald standard.
The dining experience sadly was poor. The evening meal in the Linden Tree pub was not of good quality and the children’s menu was more expensive and chargeable per course which differed to the two courses for £7.95 promoted in the hotel website menu. The cooked breakfast was also poor quality and the menu was full of expensive supplement costs.
Fabulous place
I only stayed here because of a Bruce Springsteen concert in Sunderland so all the Hotels in Newcastle were full.
Well worth a visit.
Only downside was the size of my fish at dinner. Can only be described as a child’s portion but they brought another half without any complaint.
