Mediocre and over priced
The hotel itself was clean, the staff were great and the bed was comfortable however our room was very dated, small and the bath was incredibly creaky. The quality of the breakfast was alright but it was Luke warm at best which let it down. Overall it was fine but you can get better at a lot cheaper rates.

Comfy hotel
Goid comfy bed in a nice room we were upgraded without extra cost. Wifi a bit patchy when the hotel was busy. No problem at all parking although of course there is the extra cost. Good location for central Durham

Perfect spot
We chose the hotel at random, knowing it was central and had on site parking. In fact it was the perfect choice for exploring the city. Close to all the historic sites, and easy walking to restaurants and pubs. The staff were very friendly and efficient - which made the stay even better.
