If we go back we will insist on NOT being on the fifth floor again.
Pros:

This is our third time of staying at the Copthorne in Newcastle , the location is very good, the breakfast is excellent and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Cons:

This time we were put on the fifth floor, the room itself was fine, but when we looked out of the window we were surprised to see a metal type walkway with pigeons roosting on and a canopy above.You couldn’t see down onto the pathway, just the river and across. We were very disappointed with this, knowing how much we had been able to see before.

Nice clean hotel in good location
Pros:

Lovely spacious bedroom with view of river. Convenient parking and plenty of spaces available. Good location. Nice food in restaurant with a free drink and 20%off food before 6.30

Cons:

Bathroom was small, would prefer shower not over bath. As room was very large it would have been good to make bathroom a bit bigger. Breakfast was fine but have had better, it was a bit crowded around food tables

A quality hotel on the Quayside.
Pros:

Superb location with a river view from most bedrooms. Very friendly staff. Amazing value for money.

Small things aren't great for breakfast like scrambled eggs made with powder, industrial tasteless bread or poor quality teabags..
