"Was a romantic get away, found that the drinks are expensive inside the hotel. we never ate at the hotel, as there is a couple of nice pubs close by. the staff were friendly, THe place is a bit of a maze but cool. they do run daily tours but its best if you book up in advance as when we tried to do day of the tour no availability. it is run via a 3rd party not the hotel itself."

At the 4-Star Beamish Hall Country House Hotel, BW Premier Collection you will find delightful accommodations, close to Newcastle upon Tyne and Durham. However, this classic country house hotel is a desirable destination in itself, set in a vast 24 acres of manicured gardens in the beautiful English countryside. The hotel boasts an 18th century stable block on site, that’s home to a pub, restaurant and microbrewery. The brewery produces eight premium quality ales and even offers tours explaining how these delicious ales go from keg to mouth. An Edwardian tearoom can also be found in the hotel, serving quintessentially British afternoon teas. For a little adventure in the countryside, the Beamish Wild Outdoor Adventure Park and High Ropes Course just so happens to be located in the hotel grounds, so why not test your nerve of the zip wires and Powerfan freefall. This 13th Century Country House hotel in Beamish has been lovingly restored to include all the modern comforts you could need. However, you can be rest assured it has not lost any of its traditional grandeur or heritage. There are stunning period features, including ornate ceilings, carved oak fireplaces, chandeliers, stained glass windows and a sweeping staircase. These elegant structures are found in all of the reception rooms, and simply must be taken advantage of for elegant weddings affairs. The dedicated team of wedding staff will do everything they can to ensure you day is just as perfect as the venue. At the Best Western, you’ll be just a 25 minute drive from Newcastle, a huge center for business, with a wealth of attractions and a bustling nightlife. Durham is also 25 minutes away so why not head to Romanesque Durham Cathedral and 13th-century Durham castle, waiting to be explored in this romantic city? Please note: guests with dinner included in their stay are entitled to a 3 course meal excluding steaks.

"Overall good, quiet and tidy, breakfast is delicious, the bar is good, snacks and wine are very good, the room has a particularly large shower, there is no small shower that can be taken down, but the water is great, we are a family trip, give me Ma Ma took a good-looking photo, the front desk lady is also very enthusiastic~"

The Trinity Neighborhood. Newcomers, friends or just weary travelers step onto the set of history at Hotel Indigo® Durham, whilst you explore our ‘perfect little city’. Our boutique hotel is moments from the historic Durham City Centre; perfectly located for an adventure. With the magnificent university, castle and world renowned Durham Cathedral just a short stroll from our doors, you’ll be spoilt for choice. The stage for our Hotel Indigo is the former Durham University building ‘Old Shire Hall’, where you’ll find Victorian façade spills out into our ancient and romantic neighborhood laden with historic pubs, cozy cafes and spellbinding churches, or slip away into the surrounding countryside and sleepy villages. Throughout you will spot little nods to our UNESCO World Heritage. Our cocktail lounge, meeting room and Marco Pierre White restaurant all retain their Victorian heritage whilst embracing contemporary popular culture, a nod to the city’s ancient history and bright future. Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill treats guests to signature steaks, timeless English and French classics, and a selection of tasty cocktails; the perfect gathering for friends and family for afternoon tea. Our contemporary boutique hotel bedrooms blend perfectly with the city’s Norman ancestry combining technology, style and comfort, and many with stunning views of Durham Cathedral.

"The size of the room is specious with sufficient space for storing luggage, and the floor is very clean and comfortable to walk on with bare feet, so feel free to leave your shoe by the door. As for the bed, it is very large and comfortable, providing you the high quality of sleeping without any problems. In the bathroom, it is not only very elegant and clean, but also provides unlimited hot water with satisfying water pressure from two types of shower heads. Moreover, there is a mini fridge placed in the lower closet near the wardrobe, feel free to drink the two bottles of spring water prepared by the host or store your own drinks or unfinished meals. In addition, there is a small safe above the fridge for depositing your valuables. In terms of the amenities on the ground floor, there is a high-end restaurant serving traditional English breakfast (e.g. egg benedict) in the morning, and the taste is fine. However, I am not a big fan of their lunch or dinner when you can have better options in nearby restaurants. Furthermore, there is a small bar just outside the restaurant. The Gym, coffee room and reception are at the LG level, and you will receive a 10% discount in the coffee room after check-in. The location is very close to the city center, train station and several main attractions such as the cathedral and castle. Overall, I enjoy my two-day stay very much, the price of the hotel is very cost-effective in terms of the four-star standards, providing an unforgettable experience for both tourists and business travelers."

"At 4 PM, during peak check-in time, I wasn't allowed priority for luggage retrieval. I was told to queue with everyone checking in, and the staff's attitude was extremely arrogant, making me feel discriminated against! My Uber was five minutes away, and I had a 4:40 PM train to London; waiting in line for luggage would definitely make me miss it! I waited for the front desk to finish with their current guest and then tried to explain my situation. However, the front desk disregarded the circumstances and insisted I queue up. I don't know if this lack of understanding is part of British culture; if so, I apologize (I hadn't considered 4 PM as peak check-in). If not, the hotel should apologize to me! In the end, even the British people queuing for check-in couldn't stand it. After consulting with a few people behind them, they let me cut in line. Retrieving my luggage took only about 30 seconds. Thankfully, I made my train, phew."

We enjoyed our stay, the location of our room was good. The only few ******* that we had, was that although the room was clean, it smelt a little bit smokey, it was too hot, we tried turning the radiator down a little but it wouldn't stay down, we did open the window, and the pillows were too hard for me. But for the 1 night we stayed it was ok.

A lovely traditional country house hotel. The public rooms were just what you expected, old world charm, the food excellent but the best asset  was the friendly and helpful staff. Unable to comment on bedrooms as we were in an accessible room which wasn’t great, good parking though. Needs attention to basic customer requirements, overall a great few days
