Spacious room with city view. All staff have been very friendly and welcoming. Nice cooled breakfast option. The Indian restaurant on site was very tasty and great dining option. However, it is quite small so you are best booking a table. Hotel is dog friendly which was great for us. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c62182c0-044e-4ad4-8765-3f8e30180ac0-1756210610787.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Agnieszka Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colin 12 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Always a pleasure to stay here.

Help offered with bags and an escort given to our more than pleasant booked room (Cathedral View). Facilities in room all that one might require, and with a comfortable bed. Very tasty breakfast options available from 07:30 am with a range of beverages. An easy check out procedure on departure. One thing that has to be said is that my partner and I found the room somewhat over warm through the night, despite the fact that we had turned off the radiator. A reason that occurred to us was that with the room being at the top of the property, perhaps it was a case of all the heat from below rising. Overall though, very highly recommended. ##### Graham Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Josephine 26 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely unique building, beautiful room and very pet friendly.

In a quiet location without through-traffic, but 15 minutes' walk from the city centre, also close to bus routes, and convenient for driving out to other places. Breakfasts are very good and you can book an evening meal. ##### Margaret Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jade 5 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful hotel in the city Beautiful hotel located a short walk from Durham city centre.

She greeted us with a cup of tea and biscuits and allowed us to check-in early and was very helpful with suggestions of things to do in the city. Rooms were comfortable and quiet and included on-site free parking. Location just a short walk into the centre. Breakfast also very good with lots of options. ##### Debra Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lydia 30 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fabulous service and delicious breakfast We stayed in a family room and the service was incredibly friendly and hospitable.
