Disappointment

Overall a disappointing experience. The hotel is set in beautiful surroundings and the public areas are nice enough, however my room was very run down and not set up well at all for a 4 star hotel. The window broken and wouldn’t close, the bathroom was in a poor state of repair with cracked basin and tiles coming away from the wall, no shower gel or shampoo (only hand cleanser in shower dispenser), no glasses, no bottles of water etc. Also I specifically asked to be able to charge to my room but when I went to the bar I was told it hadn’t been done. Although a minor inconvenience, this wasn’t expected and summed up the hotel - much promise but not delivered.

Pleasant stay

Pleasant stay, paid with Tesco vouchers so well worth the cost. Room was a bit dated and tired but very clean. Lots of equipment in the gym and nice swimming pool, steam room and sauna. Had to wait about 15mins to use though because only allow max number of 48 but this is actually a positive as not too busy. Pleasant evening meal and breakfast. Also close to a trail around an old Roman settlement which we enjoyed after checkout

We went to Dunston Hall for a weekend break and we were not disappointed. Our room was lovely and everything about the hotel exceeded our expectations. If there was one small criticism it was that our double bed, though individually comfortable, was made up of two singles of different heights! This led to my wife waking up with back pain due to ending up laying across the joint!

Beautiful building. Location was perfect. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean but the bed was uncomfortable and the pillows were like rocks. Food was expensive. A side of cauliflower cheese came out boiled half to death and covered in bright orange plastic cheese. Mash potato was gritty and cold. Edible if covered in extra gravy and plenty of seasoning. Would be great if real cocktails were served in the bar, not the pre-mixed rubbish you can buy in the supermarket. For the price I paid for the night, I was happy with it. Was cheaper than the local budget hotels in the area for 1 night!

Stately house in need of a little TLC, surrounded by carpark in what would have been lovely grounds. Breakfast was a massive disappointment. The hotel was working around renovations but it was poorly planned and spectacularly poorly executed. Eggs, bacon and juice were conspicuous by their absence, but the sausages were surprisingly good. The staff, who spent most of their time running around achieving very little, were either poorly trained, poorly led or nobody at the hotel has ever experienced a good buffet breakfast service so doesn't know what right is. There was one person showing people in to the restaurant meaning a long wait time before being shown to the table. Coffee, which gets brought to you, was very weak and only just drinkable, so when the offer of refills didn't materialize we weren't too disappointed. Pool facilities were ok.

Great Country House Hotel

Proper Country House Hotel. Great looking place. Staff all v friendly and helpful at every touch point from reception to the gym to the bar. Don't forget your Golf clubs (like I did) as great driving range if you don't want to play 18holes (with separate golf bar) Rooms spacious and clean. Bed and pillows a bit hard for my taste but blackout curtains work well! 😉

We checked in on a Saturday and had paid extra for a early check in,that took over 20 mins for the process whilst they waited to make sure the room was ready,we also pre checked our friends in as their room was a 3pm check in.Unfortunately when they went to check in that took over 30 mins with queuing and they had to recheck in again,even though we had a room number. The whole check,in process was the main disappointment. The rooms were clean and had the usual facilities you would expect. The bar area is nice,breakfast was a little chaotic and long queues for 1 coffee machine.
