Outstanding location with 5 star views
Pros:

We had a carpark view room but the view was still amazing from the 5th floor, right across the city and the harbour. The bed was comfortable and the double glazing worked well to block out street noise.

Cons:

There was a door adjoining the next room which let a fair bit of noise through from the family next door.

Pros:

The location was very picturesque,though our room looked onto some dirty buildings in the city.
Our bed was very comfortable,and our room.was refreshed for our second night.
The room.was.clean.

Cons:

The staff were abrupt and impersonal.Both the staff we engaged in at reception and at the bar were unpleasant and appeared to dislike their jobs. They did what would be their job descriptions but in a perfunctory,dismissive and impersonal manner,my wife and I felt like we had been processed.
We will not return to Noah's on our next regular visit to our daughter who lives in Newcastle.

If I’m visiting Newy, it has to be Noah’s where I stay.

Cons:

The parking is a little squeezy, but ok.
