Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Such a great place to stay! Comes with microwave, big fridge, comfy bed, free breakfast, very up to date room and amazing service overall! Michael (host) helped us with our bags, gave us great advice about the local area and was on hand to help in any way. The breakfast is amazing and the hotel is situated beside local stores (Sainsbury’s, Iceland etc!) There are award winning restaurants nearby and the stunning coastline of Whitley Bay within 2 minutes walk downhill.”
“My partner and I had a wonderful weekend stay here; we truly couldn't have picked a better spot. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Michael. He was an outstanding host – friendly, full of helpful information, and genuinely welcoming. Our room was excellent (it was spotless and very comfortable), and the hotel's location is perfect for a stroll along the seaside. We are already looking forward to our next visit and will absolutely be booking again!”
“Stayed here a couple times recently while working in the area and couldn't recommend more. Michael is a wonderful host, very friendly and helpful. Rooms are very nice and clean, breakfast was great, I honestly can't fault them one bit would recommend to anyone”
