One night stay before an early flight from Newcastle. Rate included breakfast but we were up and out before it started there was coffee but nothing else on offer. I have stayed at other HI hotels where they give a grab bag to take away. The room was clean comfy and quiet. The restaurant area was like a school canteen very basic and no ambience but the service was good. Would stay again for the convenience and quiet.

We stayed here the night before our morning flight at Newcastle airport. We arrived around 6pm and got checked in quickly. Rooms were spacious and clean as were the toilets. Unfortunately our room had a broken window making the room very noisy during the night. Not ideal with a toddler and baby. We could no request a room swap as the children had fallen asleep prior to heading back to the room and waking them to do this was not an option.
I stayed for a week with my children, first impressions were great. Friendly staff, lobby clean.
Room was standard, quite small family room. Was summer holidays so lots of children could be heard at night/early morning.
Irons could do with being checked in each room, the one we had burnt my shirt, but the staff were lovely and have arranged a replacement with no hassel.
Breakfast had a good choice with good quality food and drinks.
Due to having a broken car, staff extended out check out to 1pm so i had enough time to go and collect it all.
Friendly and efficient reception staff. Request for disabled access catered for. Clen, comfortable room on the ground floor. Super continental and English breakfast buffet.
We always book here when visiting family. Decent breakfast included with price and never a problem getting parked. Room was quite hot and stuffy and would have benefitted from air con but all in all a good stay as usual.
This hotel is not downtown but super close to a couple restaurants. You would need to drive to get to downtown however this hotel was clean, quiet and a very pleasant stay.
Had a pleasant stay,staff were very helpful and friendly. Morning breakfast was hot and plentiful.Room was clean although Double bed mattress and sofa bed were really uncomfortable. We only stopped 2 night's so wasn't worth changing rooms.
