Top Durham Hotel Reviews

The Seaton Lane Inn - The Inn Collection Group

10/10 Excellent

"I'm travelling with my family and mostly satisfied this property."

Park Head Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely clean room, comfortable bed and friendly, helpful staff. We were made to feel very welcome. Food was excellent (breakfast and evening meal). Food portions were very generous for the evening meal. Prices were very reasonable too. We will definitely recommend to friends and family especially if they are planning to visit the Kynren show."

Honest Lawyer Hotel

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our stay. The staff were all lovely. The hotel is tired and could do with a refurb. However it was clean and the food, both at breakfast and in the restaurant, was of a high standard. It was also well situated for travelling around both by public transport and by car. We would definitely go back"

Beamish Hall Hotel, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel set in beautiful grounds. Flower borders were just lovely! Room (twin deluxe) was spacious, comfortable and clean. One note, we were in room 216 which had view over cafe at back, which was really pretty so not a problem. However, deliveries started unloading at 6am in the morning which wasn't great. The hotel is so close to Beamish working museum, very handy. Few good pubs in the area too."

Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"For what must be an older hotel, the amenities are excellent, modern and well kept, swimming pool is massive with a jacuzzi hot tub, didn’t use the spa but looks amazing, bedroom was lovely, a nice size overlooking the garden area, nice and quiet, didn’t use golf course but ‘The Pin’ is a great place to visit ( in hotel grounds) sports bar, bowling, driving range, shuttle board and lots more, friendly helpful staff, will definitely be back!"
