7.3 mi from Birtley Leisure Centre

"The room was massive and clearly newly decorated. It was let down on the first night by the previous occupants filthy towels still being in the room. The other major issue with the room is the noise. The room is at the front of the hotel and the noise from the revellers outside and the sound system just below the room meant no sleep. There should be a new word for places that charge you to stay but you can’t actually get any sleep. On the plus side the staff were friendly and the cocktails...

Top Birtley Leisure Centre Hotel Reviews

Mercure Newcastle George Washington Hotel Golf and Spa

8/10 Good

"For the price it was good. The food was a little limited and while there is room service it only runs to 9:30 so not the best. Staff were lovely, although the barstaff were yoing and inexperienced clearly not knowing what goes onto what cocktails etc... I would consider staying again, but probably only if there was an offer on"
