Great room/staff but absolutely freezing

Very clean, lovely staff, great parking and good bar. However, the room was freezing and had to sleep in my coat. Radiator never came on even though it was set to high. Also, need more than just 1 sachet of milk.

The hotel was very nice in a great location unfortunately it was very cold and the hotel was understaffed with 2 people seeming to do all the work. Food was good but took over an hour to arrive.

Perfect location between Barter Book and the Playhouse with bus stop right outside. Clean, quiet, comfortable. Nice patio outside to enjoy summer evenings. Not fancy, but if your tastes are simple and you want an affordable base from which to explore the area, this is the place for you.

Excellent location with its own car parking albeit with a very tight entrance. A busy pub hotel and checking in was somewhat chaotic as there seemed to be difficulty with the check-in software. This hotel does not provide breakfast. Very noisy because of other guests until 4:00am.

Great inn option. Friendly staff and clean accommodation. Only comment was that it is a shame they were not offering breakfast when we stayed.

The staff were lovely but didn't seem to have had much training. There was a fire door on the second floor which was closed at night. We had to climb the outdoor stairs at night and in the morning. One morning everywhere was locked up, couldn't get to the ground floor. At breakfast there were no fruit juices, yogurts, anything like that.

After leaving the property at 8am I was locked out .No staff around. Difficulty getting into the internet.Like a Ben with evening meal which was fully booked . Poor staff supervision.

Avoid at all cost

On check in i was offered breakfast and agreed a time. I came downstairs and found the building completely empty and couldn't find a single member of staff. I was also issued a key for the room without a fob for the entrance but as it turns out that wasn't needed as the night entrance door was broken and tied open. This isn't the first time ive stayed here but its definitely the last. I would strongly recommend you find another place to stay when in Alnwick.

I recommend ‘The Muckle’ Room

It was My first stay at the Plough & I was extremely impressed. My room (The Muckle) was just what I needed, plenty of space clean, comfortable bed, nice bathroom. The staff were very helpful & friendly. Plenty of room in the car park. I was so impressed I immediately booked My next stay at the Plough

It was a pleasant stay after visiting Alnwick Gardens. The room was about average size but walk up on third floor. The room was clean and as usual air conditioning was provided by opening the window. Parking is available but not for the faint of heart if you are not used to driving in the UK. Would consider staying there again if we are ever in the area.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. The room that i was in had a very high window so absolutely no view. The staff were very friendly and informed me that they had literally just taken over the property. Food wasnt an option as due to the take over they had no chef.

Location is perfect, bed was very comfortable. Suited our needs when we were at a wedding and only needed a bed for the night. Boutique it is not though and was rather expensive for what you get. A toilet that struggles to flush paper and abysmal workmanship on the silicone sealant round the shower. Access to room after hours and egress in the morning via a poorly maintained, rickety fire escape due to no staff on site overnight.
