It had everything I needed and was close to the beach. They were so friendly and happy to help me find my way around the area. Breakfast was amazing too, so many options. All for a much better price than staying in central Newcastle which is easily reached by the metro a short walk down the road. I would definitely stay here again. ##### Louisa Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### robert 25 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Overnight stay but 5 mins to Metro station right by the coast had a nice morning walk along the coastal path. Clean friendly and just what i wanted again. Good breakfast in the morning set me up for the day. Until the next time. ##### robert Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### KAREN 27 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A really friendly welcome from check in through to departure. It was really nice to have the personal, more thoughtful touches of a smaller hotel (vs the big chains!). The room was tastefully decorated and provided a quiet, comfortable space to relax (when travelling for work). In terms of the location, the owner suggested some great areas to explore and it was easy to find one of the many ‘individual’ restaurants. Great walks along the promenade and an excellent choice of breakfast options made this a really enjoyable stay. Would have no hesitation recommending and revisiting again in the future. Thank you ##### KAREN Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Chessington Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Chessington-Safari-Hotel.h8156699.Hotel-Information) > > [Laburnum Guest House at Bistro Englaze](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Laburnum-Guest-House-At-Bistro-Englaze.h32748781.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sutton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel-Sutton.h34178148.Hotel-Information) > > [Shortflatt Tower, Shortflatt Tower Estate ,Belsay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Shortflatt-Tower.h54291731.Hotel-Information) > > [The Vermont Hotel & Vermont Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Vermont-Hotel.h3082.Hotel-Information) > > [The Keelman and Big Lamp Brewery](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Keelman-And-Big-Lamp-Brewery.h27772016.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Express Newcastle Gateshead](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Hotel-Express-Newcastle-Gateshead.h33341994.Hotel-Information) > > [The Moon and Sixpence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-The-Moon-And-Sixpence.h34361466.Hotel-Information) > > [Ochre Yards Gateshead](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Ochre-Yards-Gateshead.h57803443.Hotel-Information) > > [The Regency Hotel Solihull](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Regency-Hotel-Solihull.h15143.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity Aparthotels, Liverpool, Waterfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-Staycity-Aparthotels-Liverpool-Waterfront.h27393298.Hotel-Information) > > [5\* Barn Conversion c/w hot tub, sauna, games room, 1/4 acre enclosed games](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-5-Barn-Conversion-Cw-Hot-Tub.h19501189.Hotel-Information) > > [Duke of Wellington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Duke-Of-Wellington.h4055302.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Newcastle Quayside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-Newcastle-Quayside.h4438872.Hotel-Information) > > [The Angel of Corbridge Limited](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Angel-Of-Corbridge-Limited.h6676418.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House , Shortflatt Tower , Belsay ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h53778807.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Rectory ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-The-Old-Rectory.h91720640.Hotel-Information) > > [Chigwell Poolhouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Chigwell-Poolhouse.h36620156.Hotel-Information) > > [Little Haven Hotel On The Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Little-Haven-Hotel.h892266.Hotel-Information) > > [Xtasia Adults Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-Xtasia-Adults-Hotel.h36444290.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Walton Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Best-Western-Walton-Park-Hotel.h19232.Hotel-Information) > > [Michelangelos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Michelangelos.h41450571.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Hall Hotel and Spa Wolverhampton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-Park-Hall-Hotel-And-Spa-Wolverhampton.h430159.Hotel-Information) > > [Waterfront Southport Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-Bliss-Hotel-Southport.h2238889.Hotel-Information) > > [Mulberry Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Mulberry-Aparthotel.h100792842.Hotel-Information) > > [The Magnum Hotel, Sunderland City, Sure Collection by Best Western](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Sunderland.h23055273.Hotel-Information) > > [Grainger House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Grainger-House-Hotel.h1984948.Hotel-Information) > > [Copthorne Hotel Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Copthorne-Hotel-Newcastle.h523217.Hotel-Information) ---
