Stayed here for 1 night on a Saturday, it was the only hotel available in central Newcastle at…read moreshort notice. I was not sure exactly where it was when I booked it but it turned out to be OK. It cost £70 for a double room per night, with breakfast an extra £7.95 per person. You did not have to pay for breakfast upfront you could decide and pay for it the next morning which I felt was a good idea. The staff were really friendly and nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them. The rooms were what you would expect from this hotel chain, there was a bar for residents open till 1am and breakfast was enjoyable with plenty of choice. Considering it was a saturday night I honestly did not hear any noise, I was on the 7th floor and there was a stag party staying on the same floor but everybody was well behaved. The hotel itself is about a 2 minute walk from Northumberland street where all the shops are, and about a 15/20 minute walk from the train station so it was quite central to everything.

You can never go far wrong with a Premier Inn,this one was no exception! Situated near an…read moreindustrial estate. It has the usual good standard of Premier Inn bedrooms, complete with free tea and coffee, plus shower gel in a dispenser in the bathroom. There is a pub/restuarant next door where you can pre-order your breakfast, well worth doing. Continental or Full English is on offer. We did have an evening meal in the pub, it was a little busier then but a good meal. Ample car parking too

This is a typical country pub with lovely furniture a very nice atmosphere and gorgeous food…read more Highly rated amongst the local population and ideal for a lunch or half an ale on a winters day. The landlord is a real character who keeps his customers entertained and will keep you coming back for more. A word of warning though, don't order a starter unless your stomach is like the black hole of Calcutta - the portion sizes are extremely generous.

That aside, the hotel caters for all types, especially weddings. I stayed here for the first time three years ago for the Great North Run and on each and every occasion since, they have always shown us nothing but hospitality. One of the reasons I choose to stay here is that they have always been able to conjure up a meal of my choosing, but the choice from the set menu is always pleasing, they also cater for the carvery brigade which is nice if you like carvery's! They also have a good selection of wines and some regular and local beers. NB: if you are visiting Newcastle then this place is located approx. 6 miles from central station, or to put it another way a £15 cab ride! But their are some great eateries in Newcastle which I will post reviews for later.

I had never heard of this place before I was invited for a wedding reception and the evening party…read morefor the wedding. I have got to admit the service was absolutely spot on - no problems at all. The staff were friendly and handled the meals and the drinks efficiently and professionally. The meals themselves were very well made and I enjoyed every course of the set menu, something which I don't do very often as I am particularly picky. I personally would go back for a meal or just the odd drink here and there. The bar served a variety of drinks, as you would expect including a variety of local ales.

Given that it's located a 3 minute walk from the train station, there is not much to dislike about this highly rated hostel. The only things I can think of: The bathroom can be 15-20 meters from your room depending on which one you're in. Internet terminals are not free (although WiFi is). In short: A great value place.

The two members of the staff I interacted with were very straightforward and not more friendly than needed to answer my questions. I'm a worker, so I get it, but I am used to hostel staff being very friendly. That added to the overall "meh" feel I get from this place. But it's cheap and clean!

If you've seen one Premier Inn then you've seen them all.........or have you?…read moreBecause it's shoe horned into one of the original quayside buildings this particular Premier Inn has a bit of character. It is a bit of a warren of a place with weird lifts that only take you to certain floors (make sure you choose the right one). My room was literally in the attic so, if I climbed up to the window, I had a great view over the tyne and felt as though I was almost within touching distance of the Tyne Bridge. The room, incidentally, was enormous. I found the staff here extremely friendly and helpful with advice regarding parking and offers to serve a meal in our room for a poorly child. Because it is on the Quayside there is limited parking and a two hour maximum stay during the day for on street spaces. The Premier Inn offers some parking at £7 per day but this needs to be booked in advance (not clear when booking on line). The staff did however direct us to alternative parking nearby which worked out cheaper if you were planning to spend the day in Newcastle. There are absolutely oodles of small eateries on the doorstep and so much variety at such reasonable prices that I longed to grab some foodie friends and stay here until bellyburst.
