Guest Reviews
Perfect location and friendly staff.
Bistro was excellent.
Nothing
The staff were very friendly
We had bedroom overlooking main road wth no net curtains or window screening. Whilst using bathroom or bedroom to undress etc we had to draw the curtains for privacy .
There was no staff after 9.30pm on the premises so no opportunity to have an evening drink in the lounge.
The hairdryer plug was round the corner from the mirror & no table to use while drying hair.
Finally no fridge in the room to keep milk/ drinks cool. The room was of ample size to accommodate one.
The hotel has very pretty decor & the breakfast was of good quality ingredients but for the price they charge for a nights stay £300+ I didn’t think it was value for money
Very good location. Clean and comfortable rooms.
Parking difficult.
Sehr urig, altes Haus, liebevoll renoviert
The hotel is very comfortable and welcoming. Our room was quite spacious and spotlessly clean. The room was serviced each day (on request), and this was done thoroughly.
Breakfast was outstanding: an excellent range of items on offer including the best fruit salad we've ever had!
The location could not be better for entry to the castle and, a few minutes beyond that, reaching the town centre. There are many local restaurants. We would recommend Leo.
Not the hotel's fault, but the need to move the car during the day to comply with parking restrictions was a bit irksome. However, the hotel staff readily offered advice, and free on street parking was available close by. There was no problem with parking outside the hotel overnight until 10am the next day.
Warm and friendly hotel with great charm in a great location
Excellent food, both at our dinner and at breakfast
Interesting place that used to belong to the nuns, that has been beautifully and tastefully turned into a hotel. Easy walk to Alnwick Castle. Lovely big rooms, delightful dining room for breakfast, really great staff. Helpful, friendly, wishing to make your stay a memorable and good one.
I wanted to stay longer!
Location is fantastic, 1 minute walk to the castle gates. Almost all staff we've met was lovely and welcoming. Wery nice lounge zone and cozy little garden
We've met 5 members of hotel staff, and 4 of them were absolutely brilliant and nice. Although, one young lady was rude, arrogant and unprofessional. I don't know if she had anything personally towards us or was just frustrated with something in general, but each interaction with her was painful and a little embarassing.
Our room was on top floor and although it was around 20 degrees and cold wind outside, inside the room was boiling hot and the windows had stoppers so we could not open them wider than 10cm. As a result we left earlier than expected.
Lovely property with original features and beautiful gardens in a great location. The staff can’t do enough for you and make your staff perfect. A special mention to Louise on reception and the lady serving breakfast (I didn’t catch her name) both went out of their way to make your stay everything you wanted and needed it to be. The breakfast was also exceptional.
The room was a little small for the money paid but was perfectly formed will all the necessary amenities.
This was an exceptionally fine boutique hotel. Brilliant interior design and right in the middle of town so most places walkable. Great food and friendly staff. There’s a lovely garden and patio and overnight parking outside.
Nothing
the attention to detail, every room was beautiful
Beautiful boutique hotel with lots of lovely personal touches. Staff were all friendly and attentive. Best hotel breakfasts I’ve had for a long time. Cosy guest lounge. Great location just by Alnwick Castle. So much to do and see in the area will definitely be back.
Bedroom could have done with a bit more cupboard space.
Breakfast was amazing. Staff were super amazing and friendly and helpful. Room was big. Steps from the castle
Room very hot although air con provided. View of scaffolding and bins.
Lovely boutique hotel with relaxed feel. Staff were exceptionally friendly. Restaurant for dinner and breakfast was very good.
Just note that our third floor room had two low beams for any guest above 5’ 8” or so. This isn’t obvious from photo or room description and needed a bit of avoidance! However the room was cozy and extremely comfortable
Location was excellent
The room was very small and unbearably hot.
We did complain and asked to be moved but no other available rooms. We were given a fan but it was very noisy and had to turn it off. We got no sleep the whole time due to the temperature of the room. The ceiling very low so explained heat and window only opened a fraction. Such a shame as a lovely hotel. Thus spoiled our stay and it had a terrible view. Think very unlucky with the room given.
