The room was comfortable and the shower was great - both hot and powerful. Unfortunately the cheap coffee in the rooms was a let down.

Holiday Inn Express, Newcastle upon Tyne Centre

A return stay after visiting the Northumbria Coast. I don't think this stay was as good as the first one. The shower gel had run out on the day of arrival and although this was reported it remained empty over the two night stay. Despite this, it was a comfortable stay with good facilities and a good choice at breakfast.

Unqualified staff

Chaotic hotel! breakfast was a complete disaster, no eggs available (we are waiting for delivery) no more yoghurt ( sorry out) coffee machine didn’t work well, staff fully overstrained and unorganised. Check out difficult, invoice was not able to be printed, announced email never received….

48 hours in Newcastle

The hotel is quite close to the station and the city centre and easily accessible. The friendly staff who checked us in were very helpful and efficient. The room was clean and had a good TV and drinks availability. As we were going out the cleaning team were working on the room upkeep and seemed very happy. Excellent quality breakfast, plenty of options and freshly cooked. Only slight criticism would be no tea or coffee in the bar area when we got back in the afternoon, but offered extra tea bags for the room. Would be happy to stay here again.

Fantastic Staff

After choosing this hotel due to the location to the hospital due to a family illness whist on holiday the staff could not do enough to make sure our stay was as stress free as possible. The staff are polite accommodating and very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us they are a credit to the company.
