Jesmond Executive Villas
Unit was comfortable, quiet and pristine but stainless steel bin in bathroom had rusty lid which rather detracts from the overall impression. Ironing board cover thin and stained and needs replacing

Holiday Inn Express Newcastle by IHG
The room was clean and well presentable. Lovely bathroom and shower. Staff were helpful and lovely. However, it has terrible smell one gets use to. The longer you stay it gets less noticeable.

NOAH'S On The Beach
Comfortable room with a fantastic view of the beach. Parking underneath is good and we enjoyed eating at the restaurant both nights we were there. We had breakfast at the beach kiosk across the road and watched the surfers while we had our coffee, bliss! We will be back.
