Independent in Beamish from NZ$86

"Overall the hotel is good. But, unfortunately our room wasn't. The extractor fan in the bathroom would not switch off! It ran all night and therefore, we had an extremely disturbed nights sleep. We did ring reception at 10.30pm to ask about this problem and they told us it would switch off at midnight.....sadly for us it didn't!! The hotel is clean and well presented in a great location. The staff are helpful and friendly. We had a good meal in Hudsons restaurant. Just disappointed with the...

"As for the hotel and location it’s great spot ! For sleeping to hot , Train noise and pillows lumpy not nice at all . One receptionist a bad attitude on arrival it was 2pm with the word WHAT . I said we would like to book in answer ! NOT TILL 3PM . Shoot me down ! "

"Thin walls, but who cares, people sometimes are loud. It's may, the weather is gorgeous, so the outdoor tables were packed. Restaurant staff were terrific. My window looked out onto a black metal tree--oh well. Conveniently located, and easy to find. Skipped the breakfast."

"Pleasant room of adequate size with reasonable amenities. Good breakfast. "

"Being a Thursday the hotel is relatively quiet but that’s not the hotels fault and I’m here for 3 days but only been here for a couple of hours, better reviewing after I check out but I’ve given the star ratings based on the hotel quality "

"Country feel in urban environment. Nice building and room but limited facilities. We only had breakfast but it wasn't exceptional: we had a long delay in it arriving...and cooked breakfast was cold."

"Nice bar."

"Absolutely spot on, although the rooms are a little dated they are super clean and spacious. The evening meal choice is great, and the quality is excellent and not over priced. Ideal hotel if you’re visiting the museum as it’s only a 5 minute drive away. Overall we had a brilliant weekend."

"Was generally good "

"For the price it was excellent value The heating didn’t work in our room (hot water and shower did work and shower was lovely) but we did have a heater which worked a treat. There was complimentary breakfast bag and free coffee machine in the morning "
