In need of a significant update

Whilst I wasn’t expecting much for the price (£50ish), there are basic expectations for pretty much any hotel, and the only one that was really met was the friendliness of the staff. The size of the room was great but it was very dated, the door locks are also a bit strange as you have to roll the key in the barrel three times and then hold it to get it to unlock. Perhaps mine was just faulty though. The bed sheets weren’t the cleanest, couple of stains from previous use, but did smell clean at least. Considering the hotel is out of the city, the noise levels weren’t great. You can very clearly hear conversations from the rooms next door (which is okay, but not at 3am). The downstairs bar seems like a social hotspot and the staff are great, but that noise definitely carries. Again, fine with that being at a reasonable hour, but that seemed to continue in to the early hours of the morning. Now, the big problem was the bathroom, particularly the shower was disgraceful. Firstly, the hot water would work for about 20 seconds (only scalding hot) and when you turned the temp down it’d get stuck on freezing cold. After that it just stayed cold even when the temp was turned back up. After 3 attempts across half an hour I just gave up and washed in the sink, which did at least have hot water consistently. Even if I did have a shower I didn’t like the fact that the wall was bowing inwards so the tiles had started falling off the wall, not safe or hygienic tbh.

6/10 Good

Cheap and cheerful.

Just a cheap overnight stay with my son for Uni open day. Room was basic, and overall in need of renovation compared to what you expect in other cheap hotels. But staff were friendly and Hotel was easily commutable to Newcastle centre by taxi. Don’t expect the ritz, it is what it is.

One night stay

Hotel quite clean but good value despite no breakfast. I shared bathroom but not used much. Location ok for going to Newcastle but should know the buses to Eldon Square.
Chris, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We needed a bed for the night when running the Great North Run and this hotel did that. Everything needed for such a stay was available but could do with a facelift and modernising. We didn’t utilise the food options, but this was offered to us, locals supportive and friendly.

Nice hotel, friendly staff

Down to newcastle for the rugby stayed at the royal hotel for one night. On arrival the people there could not have been more helpful and friendly, as we were away for the rugby and would not be back unitl late we were allowed to register early and collect the keys from the bar on our return. Bit of a climb to the rooms, my room was comfortable and plenty of room. Only down side was not a great deal of pressure from the shower other than that i will be using the hotel again. Bus stop right outside the hotel with a regular into town every 15 minutes or so at a cost of £2.

8/10 Very good

Staff is welcoming and friendly. (They dont even mind repeating 😂 because that accent hits hard..). Those room pictures that are posted here are nothing that, our was. Cleaning could be a little bit detail oriented.. Above the coffee table, on the ceiling, were cobwebs. Bathroom, - the water pressure was bad, the hot water heats up very slowly. The walls were with plastic boards in which there were holes. It was scary to take the shower, because if you need to hold on walls, then you can demolish. No heater there, bathroom was ice cold. I had previous experience in UK with bathroom water pressure, so that wasnt suprise. Location is alright. (Stores, such as ALDi & Metrocentre are 20min walk). It's quiet at night. Beds comfortable. It would be nice if small upgrade be done to apartments and update the location information on google maps because we were circling around private sites almost for an hour..

Myself and a few friends stayed over the weekend and i can honestly say that we will definitely stay here when we return to the area. The hotel has old world charm and the staff were amazing and made us feel so welcome. They went out of their way giving us local knowledge that we would just not have known as we are not from that area. A Bar on premises ceratinly helps as well and the price here compaired to a few miles away made this such an easy decision.
Kenneth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel is in a great location for getting into Newcastle. Bus stop right outside where busses run every 5 minutes to take you into the city centre. The hotel itself could do with a touch up in places but I think this is reflected in the price, as it is much cheaper than city centre hotels and other hotels in the local area. I think the hotel represents good value for money all things considered and I would stay there again.
