The hotel is much further from the station than small maps suggest and it is almost entirely hidden by other buildings. The area is rather run down.

10/10 Exceptional

The first thing thing to hit you is the reception staff , so polite helpful and friendly ! The reception area , clean and had a welcome feeling. The room we had must have been refurbished as it had in place the things you needed , like somewhere to hang your coats and my wife said a shower with a folding door . The man at the reception was so helpful in giving advice on the places to see and how to get there . Breakfast was great! My wife and I (we are in our early eighties)decided on a whim to spend a few days in Newcastle and we loved the city and the hotel made it great

Ideally situated

Ideally situated hotel close to station and centre of Newcastle. Clean room and good hot and cold breakfast options. Only issue is that the WiFi was very intermittent.
