Breakfast standard. I asked for poached eggs and was told by the waitress that the restaurant was very busy and the chef might not be able to prepare them! She went and asked and was told that they could manage two poached eggs. The coffee is TERRIBLE of very poor quality and the machines kept breaking down.
The room is tired and shabby. I have taken pictures which I will be uploading to your management team. Room 106 while having a glorious view is very tatty. The carpet is stained in several places, the armchair is stained and shabby, the paintwork is chipped and in need of repainting, the headboard fabric is cracked and rubbed away exposing the white undercloth. The mirror above the desk was filthy and covered in dust. We spent the next night at the Premier Inn in their Premier Plus rooms at half the cost and twice the luxury.

The room was comfortable and, in general, very clean.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
Slept well.
Great location to walk into the city.
Breakfast seemed rather inefficient and slow to seat people.
The tea/coffee machines need to be situated away from the food because the queues for food and hot drinks, tend to clash.
The carpet in our room also had stains.

Clean and comfortable hotel. Rooms had everything required with comfy beds and pillows. We had a lovely roast chicken in the restaurant. Highly recommend.
Cross the bridge into the town or walk the river. Great location
Nothing to criticise
8.0
The hotel was clean and the staff extremely helpful and polite. Check-in was quick and easy, although I had checked in online we still had to check in at the reception upon arrival.
Breakfast was chaotic, whilst there is a notice in the lift explaining the busy times for breakfast, having watched how the staff were organised there could be a lot of improvements made which would improve the overall experience.

My wife and I had an exceptional experience at the hotel over the weekend. Added to its prime location, with easy access to shops and restaurants, the friendliness, courtesy and hospitality of the staff was most welcome and refreshing. Martine at the reception desk was truly exemplary in this regard. She made us feel special in every sense - room upgrade et al. We are already looking forward to our next stay at the hotel.

Perfect location by river and short walk to city centre .
Large airy reception and few outdoor seats . Staff very friendly and helpful.
Super breakfast which we all enjoyed.
Tea and coffee facility in room.
It feels very dated with some worn furniture and rooms basic with grating colour schemes . No gown or slippers in higher grade room. Air con didn’t work very well . Soap dispensers in bathroom almost empty. No mini-fridge although ice bucket and ice machine in corridor . Nice pool and sauna/steam room although sauna smelly and few guests remarked on this .

Location is great
Food in the bar and restaurant was awful and it's lost it's appeal. We used to use this hotel when it first opened, it's now tired and lacks any appeal. The mattress in the room was lumpy and uncomfortable.

The early checkout

The location by the river was quality.
The easiness of arriving/parking at the hotel was very good.
Check in was rapid- no more that 5 minutes.
Breakfast was plentiful.
Location to Durham City Centre was very convenient.
Shower heads way too low. Was like a scene from The Matrix when trying to shower.
A roof top bar would be quality here- to take in the sights of the river/Cathedral from above 😉.
