"After decades of staying in Newcastle we have tried numerous hotels and we find ourselves always coming back here. The staff are always really nice and genuine, the rooms spotlessly clean, public areas comfortable, food/restaurant really good. Located on the quayside with access to cheap, secure parking is a bonus. I believe most if not all of the rooms have been refurbished and are really smart. Save yourself a lot of time and just book Mal- you won't be disappointed!"

8/10 Good
"The location is excellent, the staff were all really nice and helpful, dining room and food, very good. Sadly, no lift, so being on the top floor was a bit awkward, and our room, though clean and tidy, and comfortable, was a bit tired, and the noise from the fairground across the road, and the boy racers in the night was intrusive because, in the heatwave we had to leave the windows open because there is no A.C. in the main building (there is in the annex). Not a destination hotel for me, but very convenient for a stay in Shields. Having free parking on site was a big plus."

8/10 Good
"Lovely and comfortable stay in a convenient location, including for parking which was reasonably priced and close even when the nearest car park was full. The only downside to the room was this modern convention of sticking a shower in a glass cubicle within the room, rather than in a room of its own. I know this is often done to deter friends groups from reducing their number of room bookings, but even people travelling as couples sometimes enjoy a shower as one of the only times of their day spent by themselves and this prevents that. Otherwise a lovely hotel, and one I sought after a positive experience at a Meliá in Sevilla."
