Royal Station Hotel
Location was perfect, attached to the train station. Prebooked breakfast was reasonable, front desk staff was great. Downside was noise of revelery (outside) several times during the night.

Delta Hotels by Marriott Newcastle Gateshead
Room was fine, excellent service in the restaurant and the gym and pool area was very nice. Parking was fine, and staff are all lovely. Shower in room was terrible, weak pressure and freezing cold. Apart from that very good hotel

Immaculate room with great facilities. Plenty of tea and coffee. Breakfast was as advertised but I’d prefer a bigger range of food.
