The spa is in a different building and closes at 8pm at the weekend. Breakfast took 40 minutes from the spa restaurant, allow plenty of time. Fire alarm went off at 1.15am, no reason given when checked out. Rooms are clean with usual tea/coffee facilities. Large walk in shower. 7-8minute drive away from Durham City Centre.

A very comfortable, clean, and quiet room.Staff brilliant. Plenty of car parking. Our only suggestion would be to review the breakfast arrangements - for example - a buffet breakfast in the hotel rather than the current system at the adjacent spa.

OK but noisy

Hotel was clean. Nice shower gel and shampoo. Room was spacious. No air conditioning. With window open for air the room was noisy from the traffic until around midnight! Not ideal. Our room 39 had a very musty smell in bathroom. Imagine had had water issues in past.

Clean and comfortable

Room and everything in it was clean. There was a smell of stale smoke in the room when we arrived. We mentioned it at reception on our way out and receptionist said she'd get some airfreshioner. Smell wasn't so noticeable when we came back in later. Bed was comfortable
