A really friendly welcome from check in through to departure. It was really nice to have the personal, more thoughtful touches of a smaller hotel (vs the big chains!). The room was tastefully decorated and provided a quiet, comfortable space to relax (when travelling for work). In terms of the location, the owner suggested some great areas to explore and it was easy to find one of the many ‘individual’ restaurants. Great walks along the promenade and an excellent choice of breakfast options made this a really enjoyable stay. Would have no hesitation recommending and revisiting again in the future. Thank you

Feels like home
I had a great time here and felt like I was at home not in a hotel. It had everything I needed and was close to the beach. They were so friendly and happy to help me find my way around the area. Breakfast was amazing too, so many options. All for a much better price than staying in central Newcastle which is easily reached by the metro a short walk down the road. I would definitely stay here again.
