Top Rainton Meadows Visitor Centre Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo Durham by IHG

8/10 Good

"The staff is absolutely 5 star! They go above and beyond and truly make you feel like a guest … they’re so helpful and kind ! My only con about this property is the lack of a traditional lobby with seating area etc, the cafe downstairs is dark and gloomy although the scones are delicious and the staff is super kind as well !"

Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa

8/10 Good

"Such a lovely place even if a little dated"

Delta Hotels Durham Royal County

8/10 Good

"Great place to stay.Happy helpful staff. Clean and up to date room. Coffee the way I like it available in the lobby."

Lumley Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully maintained Castle and grounds. Room was exceptional, makes you feel like a king or queen. Nice quiet bar to have a drink, great dining room and quality food. Great cooked to order English breakfast. Everything was great. It set a stand for us for the rest of our castle hotel search. I would stay here anytime. One suggestion though is to have soothing, calming music at breakfast, as background music, instead of 'hit parade'."

61 Durham

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel but a little bit tired round the edges . Upon arrival the receptionist took a call whilst checking us in . This was ok had it been brief , but it ended up with us standing there waiting for nearly five minutes which was rather strange and a bit rude ! The room was lovely with a pretty view ,but the mattress was broken and dipping in the middle so not the best sleep . The breakfast was fabulous with plenty of choice and the staff serving were really helpful and pleasant ."
