Grand Hotel Gosforth Park

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed in a suite - very reasonably priced, spacious and well equipped with 2 TVs. Room details said that the bed was King sized - it seemed quite a bit smaller than that, but definitely bigger than a usual double. Chats bar had a good choice of bar meals and snacks. The main restaurant was only opened for breakfast, but there was plenty of choice in surrounding areas like Blyth and Newcastle. Travel around the locality and beyond was good. There was a golf course next door, and getting to Newcastle was easy on the bus when we didn’t want to use the car. Staff were great, always helpful and cheerful, especially the reception and housekeeping teams."

"We tried to sign in on line but the link didn't work. We had to complete the sign in which took ages. The screen form was certainly not user friendly. No address look up from a post code, didn't recognise England as a country, or UK or Great Britain. What a welcome to the hotel! Room was ok but no opening windows so it was like a sauna. There was a fan in the room. Breakfast was excellent made better by the attention given by Michael and Lorraine. If you need a bus Lorraine knows the best way to get from A to B."
