Advantages: Location, decor, Service

Disadvantages: Car parking is seperate to the hotel

The hotel is right on the Newcastle Quayside overlooking the Millennium Bridge and Baltic Arts Centre. There are a number of restaurants and bars right next to the hotel and less than one minute walk away yet the hotel feels quite secluded and away from the hustle and bustle of the Quayside.

Check in is very easy and the staff on reception were very friendly and efficient. We stayed mid week for one night and because the hotel wasn't busy we were upgraded to a suite. I was very impressed as I had got a bargain rate on the internet for £80 per night for a double room. The going rate for a suite is £200 per night plus!!

The hotel décor is very nice and modern and what you would expect from a hotel in this price bracket. All of the public areas are spotless.

The room that we stayed in was a suite and was very spacious. The furniture was in very good condition and the room very clean. The shower in the room was great very powerful and easy to use and get the temperature just right

The prices in the bar are quite expensive. For a small glass of house wine and a pint we paid £9.90.

To park at the hotel there is a public car park (secure) and costs approx £5 for the night. I think this rate is discounted as a hotel guest.

Probably one of my favourite hotels in Newcastle and would recommend to others.

Summary: Great hotel, good service and nice views over the Tyne
