Good links to road network. Plenty of parking on site. Several eating venues within 3 minute walk. Metro Centre 2 minute drive away. Rooms clean, functional. Ironing board, iron and hair drier present. Good break fast which was advertised as continental breakfast but actually included limitless bacon, sausages, scambled egg and beans. We didn't need a mid day meal.

Very accessible and the staff were very friendly. Breakfast was okay and included in rate (shame coffee machine was out of order). Sofa bed wasn’t very comfortable, improving this would help improve future stays.

Stayed with partner in accesible room which is in need of an update. Entrance into bathroom not wheelchair friendly as has a small step into it. Door to adjoining room of concern as doesnt appear to be suitable lock. Also travelled with another adult with children. When asked for toothbrush kit hotel didnt have any. Plenty of disabled parking but not wide spaces so makes it difficult getting someone into a wheelchair.

Overall it was a great stay, breakfast was nice, Staff were really welcoming and helpful. Room was good but we found bed a little uncomfortable with no choice of pillars. I would definitely recommend as good value for money and would use again.

Great service once again.
Our second trip this year to this hotel and we'd have no problem recommending this to anyone. A good location for a wander along to the Metro Centre or the nearby retail park. Bus stop to the town centre is a couple of hundred yards away. Very clean hotel, with lovely, helpful, friendly staff.

More light please
The hotel was very good and the room was OK. If it is a bedroom for two why not put in two chairs? The accessible bathroom was great. The room itself needed better lighting and sockets near the bed to charge the phone

We used this hotel as a stopover for an onward journey, it is conveniently situated close to the main route north ( but is also well placed for a stay in Gateshead. It was clean, comfortable and the staff were excellent. We didn't dine there in the evening but breakfast was very good.

I am reviewing this as a disabled person as that gave me issues that wouldn't matter had I been totally able bodied like I used to be! Good disabled parking at entrance then the room was down a long hallway from reception. Unusual for an 'accessible' room. It made walking for breakfast in dining area next to reception exhausting & painful in the mornings. The room itself was very clean though the dull carpet has seen better days. Comfortable bed but pull chord for help was at side of bed I couldn't use if needed as bed too near wall not allowing use of walking frame. Nowhere off floor to rest suitcase making it difficult for me. Room close to motorway so very noisy with window open in the warm weather. Biggest issue for me was the heavy bedroom door not being able to clip it open while I maneuvered my rollator & luggage to get in & out. Can't imagine a wheelchair user on their own finding that easy either. Bathroom was cleaned every day which was a nice touch. Can't fault the staff all very pleasant at check in & out. Breakfast good. Plenty of cold options which I like. For the few days I stayed for a local celebration it was ok
