Overall a great hotel and would certainly stay again.
Pros:

Clean, comfortable rooms with great facilities!

Cons:

Could do with a bit of sound proofing. We had a very noisy family staying near us, banging doors and lots of crying and shouting going on during the night. Maybe a good idea to put family’s at another end of the hotel or on a different floor from the residents. Just a suggestion!

Prima hotel voor Newcastle / Ferry
Pros:

Nette schone kamer en badkamer met groot tweepersoons bed. Naast ontbijtbuffet kon je ook iets kiezen van de ontbijtkaart.
Hotel heeft een eigen parkeerplaats waar je ook na uitchecken de auto mag laten staan. Dit is handig wanneer je nog wat uren te overbruggen hebt tit de ferry vertrekt.
Vanuit hotel goede OV-verbinding naar centrum Newcastle. Bushalte aan hotel en op 15 minuten lopen metro.

Pros:

Staff were very very helpful 🙂

Cons:

The room was very dusty and we had to ask the staff to change the room which was very quickly done. The second room was also dusty and third time lucky the room was fine.
