it was quite noisy until 1130pm, when the pub cleared. I had no idea when I booked this was above a noisy student pub. Hotel and check in great otherwise

Not for light sleepers
We stayed here as it was close to the wedding venue we were attending and didn’t seem too expensive. Easy to find and park park at. Check in was easy and the room was spacious and I was grateful for the kettle and teabags/milk and use of hairdryer and ironing board. The downside was the bars downstairs. We were at the front of the building right above the hotel bar and both Friday and Saturday night I struggled to sleep til the partygoers left at midnight. I had the windows shut and the blinds and curtains closed to try drown out the sound but to no avail. I am a light sleeper though. My partner sleeps through anything so he was fine. That was until some guests returned back at 1am Saturday night screaming like idiots at each other. They woke us both up and should learn some respect. The area was great in the day time though. Local amenities, a lovely park and an easy walk or tube to the town centre.
Check in was really nice I arrived early the gentleman on reception was very nice and helpful very informative,room was very clean and had a double bed and a single bed In it I had only asked for a single bed so I was very happy

The room we stayed in had a lingering cigarette smell.
Honest realistic review.
2 adults, 1 child, 1 large dog
Loved the fact that the hotel was dog friendly. Other dogs were their too and it was fine, you didn't hear them.
The rooms were quite spacious, en suite was small and very little power in the shower. The room did what we needed it to. It was clean and looked recently decorated.
Our room was above the bar (room 4) and was on the main road. We didn't really hear any noise and the bar didn't bother us, they were even kind enough to lend us some wine glasses. The tv had basic freeview and a hairdryer was also in the room.
The parking. Pretty poor and the guy on reception was just plain awkward with telling people where to park. As we pulled up, he tried to open our door to ask us to park in a different space. Then once parked up he asked us to move again. The spaces are extremely tight and despite us saying we had a child to get out of a car seat he still insisted we get closer to another car. Also very obvious they prefer certain cars in certain spaces. And after speaking to other guests we found that they were treated too.
He would repeatedly speak over us and not listen, even telling me that the caledonian has less spaces (who cares, i wasn't staying there!). This happened each time we came to park up, even asking us to move just one or two inches closer to a van (saying that he knows that the contractors that stay in there that have transit vans might clip the parked cars).
Overall, good hotel, parking is poor.
Enjoyed a clean, spacious, comfortable room, rear facing so away from any traffic noise. Large, fully-opening window a bonus in hot weather. Located close to the town centre so plenty shops, bars and restaurants plus 2 Metro stations within an easy, level walk.
Good sized room, free parking but as with all hotels on Osbourne Road a tad noisy with the windows open. But the noise does eventually stop also the air con unit outside the window was noisy. Service was lovely really welcoming. Price was very reasonable and the location is great
The hotel staff were amazing nothing to much
trouble for them .Rooms spacious and spotless.
Close to Metro system Ideal for coast and Central Newcastle
The welcome and breakfast were great. The room was not clean enough - peanuts in the bedside drawer and coffee stains on dressing table. The shower was not very powerful . Pull out bed not made. Not enough towels.
Room was large and plenty of room, apart from the bed - was ok if on 1 side or the other but was 2 single mattresses to make up a double bed and could be felt if I lay in the middle !! Spacious shower. Clean and tidy. Evening food I ordered was excellent, breakfast was different to the menu in the room but ok. Only down side was the stairs to take my dog out as it was the only choice for 1st thing in the morning as the door to the main hotel was locked and emergency stairs was the only exit. I have difficulty with stairs and there is no lift. Very helpful, friendly staff. Good car parking. An enjoyable stay.
Pleasant stay at an affordable price in a great location.

Fine; it grows on you
It was fine, the place grew on me but overall sight was disappointing as the cat park is st the back of the property so never looks as good. The 2 huge motorbikes and van at the entrance didn’t help, as did the incorrect sign regarding reception and our room but being made up for the 4 of us. Area is close to town which was good, b&b located in a busy road. Breakfast was nice, but not a huge selection to choose from. The owners have obviously made a good effort on presentation but bathrooms and cupboards should be left to air before guests arrived as they smelt stale.

Staff very friendly and provided information and directions for local area. Room and en-suite was clean. TV and tea coffee station available in room. Was a very comfortable nights sleep.
La parte antistante dove è situato il bar è in rifacimento, accoglienza e disponibilità di gradimento. Colazione soddisfacente tipica inglese. Camera di buono stato
Frirndly and helpful staff in a lovely part of Newcastle close to University and city centre. The room was spacious and clean
We loved the breakfast! Lots of choice and the bacon and eggs were delicious!
Highly Recommended!

It is currently be refurbished so bar and restaurant not open, but room clean and hotel is a convenient location. Staff friendly
Lovely little hotel located 25 Minutes walk from Newcastle City Centre. Jesmond has lots of bars, restaurants and a small Waitrose on the same street as the hotel. Free parking, bus stop immediately outside and Uber so getting about is very easy. The room was nicely decorated, very clean, had a really comfortable bed and everything we needed. Very relaxed atmosphere and everyone was very helpful and extremely polite. Breakfast was great, tea coffe juices, cerial, yoghurts, toast and cooked options available. Had a lovely 2 night stay and would certainly recommend to anyone wanting a quieter location than the City. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Arrivati a Newcastle siamo subito arrivati in Hotel, ovviamente non é lussuoso o paragonabili a catene famose, ma trovi “familiare”, puoi chiacchierare tranquillamente di tutto con i dipendenti, che ci hanno aiutato, indicandoci le cose da fare, parcheggio riservato, camera pulita perfettamente e colazione al top , ci hanno cucinato ciò che volevamo, ragazzi ve lo consiglio! Vicino al centro 20 min a piedi senza fretta
