Independent in Durham from NZ$115

"We have just returned from 1 night stay at Royal station hotel ,. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday. On arrival we were checked in smoothly although our room was not ready the girl at reception was very helpful stating we could leave luggage . We were given an upgraded room which was beautiful. We both prefer the old buildings with a little character. Breakfast next morning was lovely, self service , food was hot and tasty. We have stayed here many times when we visit Newcastle and will definitely be returning very soon. "

"Lovely place to stay food on the evening was really nice as well was breakfast"

"Great one night stay"

"A lovely hotel in the most perfect of areas for exploring everything Durham. A little more tea and little checks of the room would’ve made it super. Only other slight disappointment was only small amounts of fruit at breakfast. Everything else was lovely including staff and general upkeep of hotel itself. Thank you for a great stay"

"We enjoyed our stay, the stall was wonderful."

"Second stay at this hotel and everything perfect! Lovely staff, great rooms and a good breakfast . Would definitely recommend. "

"Excellent hotel with a lovely room. Easy walk into town. Lovely breakfast."

"This is a beautiful historic hotel, with spacious rooms and bathrooms. Well laid out and equipped. Highly recommend!"

"We stayed for two nights in a junior suite, the hotel was clean and tidy, staff were all friendly and welcoming. The bar and cocktails were lovely. Unfortunately the dinner menu was not great so we ate out both nights and luckily there are many options for food and drink close by. We did have a problem with breakfast on the second day (food was burnt) we returned the plate and then got the wrong replacement food and still burnt, after raising with the restaurant manager it was refunded so no significant impact on the rest of our stay."
