Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were spacious with a luxurious walk-in shower, all at a fantastic rate. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff, although one receptionist could improve their attitude. The location was fabulous for exploring the town and within walking distance of the Newcastle quayside. The dining experience was excellent, offering a variety of options until noon on Sundays. The facilities were well-run and provided by pleasant staff, making it a great value for money.
The hotel had a lovely room overlooking the River Tyne right at the elevators, making the stay quite delightful. The service was exceptional, with a lovely touch for my sister's birthday and a stunning view from the room in the city center. Though the parking charges were considered high, the location was amazing with great views of the river and proximity to the city center. The dining options were expansive and absolutely amazing, offering a delightful experience.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms were clean but somewhat dated, and the noise from the adjoining function room was bothersome. The view from the room fell short of expectations, and the mattress was uncomfortable. On the positive side, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The location was outstanding with great views of the Tyne Bridge, but the dining options were overpriced for the quality provided.
Despite telling them we were there to meet friends while celebrating our anniversary, the hotel provided a spacious and clean room. The staff was professional and kind, offering lots of information to make our experience wonderful. The location, though dated compared to other Hilton Hotels, was perfect for the show we attended. Dining was plentiful and fresh but a bit pricey. Overall, a good stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was not as luxurious as expected, more on the budget side, but it did have a decent size TV. The staff were unbelievably amazing though, even though they didn't have some spirits available and couldn't make my preferred Negroni, they still went above and beyond to accommodate me. The location was convenient, being away from the hustle and bustle but still close to town, even though the ambiance felt a bit impersonal. The dining options were disappointing with limited and overpriced choices, but the facilities were decent.

The hotel offers a fantastic view of the swing bridge and the Newcastle skyline. However, the rooms were not as clean as expected, with several cleanliness issues noted.

The location was convenient for exploring the town but required payment for parking. The dining experience had good options but fell short in terms of quality.
