We love staying at the Newcastle Holiday Inn Express IHG. Every thing is clean, comfortable, convenient for our purposes. The staff are always very lovely, friendly and helpful at all times.

We love the location as we are close to medical, and clise enough to the harbour to be able to get out and excerise and enoy the beautiful harbour foreshore walk ways. Its our place of choice when travelling to Newcastle. Highly recommend to sray here

The moment you walked into thenproperty you were greeted with a lovely warm welcome. Checking in was so easy and they explained everything so well. The room was very clean and well appointed. Had all toiletries and you can also get extra from reception. Breakfast was basic but had both hot and cold food. Certainly enough to start your day. We would definitely stay there again.
