Top Darlington Railway Centre and Museum Hotel Reviews

Premier Inn Darlington Town Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic new place in a good location with gracious staff, clean in new rooms, and a great breakfast (worth the extra cost). Heated having to pay for parking, but it was very convenient to the hotel."

Two Bedroom Family Apartment Near Town Centre Chic Stay

8/10 Good

"Completely adequate property for a short stay. Generally as described. Welcoming, quiet, safe and comfortable enough. It could benefit from some attention to some details - most pressing for me would be a new mattress in the back bedroom. We felt springs and were not really comfortable! The boiler is also in this bedroom which creates noise, but not a major problem. Host company was good at communicating and check-in/out was a breeze. Location was great with plenty of local amenities including a pub. Parking was no issue. "
