    jacuzzi bath
    amazing location

    The room was small but cozy, and loved the jacuzzi bath after a long day exploring. Amazing location right next to the castle. The bar downstairs had a great vibe and delicious food.

    cozy room
    rainfall shower
    hot tub
    loud alarm

    I had a lovely night in a cozy room with quality linen and a huge bath featuring a rainfall shower. The hotel has great relaxation spots, especially the hot tub and beautiful lounge area. The only hiccup was a loud fire alarm that went off early in the morning, but it didn't ruin my overall experience. 😊

    jacuzzi bath
    cozy vibe

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    The cozy vibe of the small double room was enchanting—it felt like a little nest! I indulged in the luxurious jacuzzi bath after a long day exploring local sights, which was the perfect way to unwind. Plus, the delicious Spanish pizza I enjoyed in the historical pub was a culinary delight that made my taste buds dance!

    clean linens
    attentive staff
    small room
    limited space

    We stayed in the Small Double Room and had a fantastic view of Alnwick Castle. The bed was clean and firm, and the linens felt luxurious. The staff were welcoming and attentive from start to finish.

    The room was a bit smaller than expected.

    Great views and comfy bed!

    We spent a night here and loved the comfy bed and clean room. The bar area was nice and had a good vibe. Breakfast was a highlight, one of the best we've had! Just beware, everything in town shuts down super early.

    Comfortable Stay with Friendly Vibes

    We found our small double room cozy for our one-night stay. Despite the tight space with our dog, the comfort level was surprising. The bar served delicious snacks, and the friendly service stood out. Don’t miss trying the exceptional gin selection! Perfect for a quick retreat.

    great view but slightly cramped

    The view from our room overlooking the castle was breathtaking, truly a highlight of our stay. The bed linen and pillows provided exceptional comfort, making it hard to get out of bed in the morning.

    The room felt a bit cramped for two people.

    moldy shower

    But honestly, if I wanted to share a bathroom experience with the mold, I would have invited it to tea! Some outside noise was a bit too social for my taste.
