The accommodation was clean. We had Sunday dinner in the hotel, it was amazing. Breakfast was very good.
The reception on arrival didn’t tell us anything. The only thing that let the hotel down was we were not told there won’t be any hot food in the evening. We were offered a choice of sandwiches.

Location great.
Asked for an accessibility room, I was disappointed with the room as I needed a walk in shower. I had a shower over the bath which I couldn't use as I can't climb into the bath. I had the same room as other members in the group that I went with and I paid £290 and my friends paid £252!!!, The room I had you can't say it was accessible as I didn't have a walk in shower!! Not a happy customer.

The location is lovely, we have stayed many times when visiting family. Staff were friendly, provided hairdryers on request and booked taxi for one of the nights.
Breakfast. We appreciated the extended hours for breakfast but over the years the quality of the food has deteriorated. Disappointed the hot buffet was no longer and the food ordered was only luke warm

Great location. Service was excellent; super friendly staff and the breakfast has gone from buffet style to table service which is a massive improvement. Poached eggs were marvellous
Would be really great if they had one or two electric car charging points.

Nice 3 star. Staff were very friendly. The cooked breakfasts were a bit of a letdown.
Great location. A bit pricey for a 3 star as the cooked breakfasts were a bit of a letdown.
Rooms are fine and clean. Staff are friendly and helpfull. The overall costs are hitting the hospitality and reflecting the price rises.

Location
No heating in bedroom. Absolutely freezing. Went to reception 3 times and told it would be sorted. At 11:15pm we had to change rooms to one that was cold but heating started to work. We were given a portable heater too with 2 faulty legs, which I doubt would pass PAT testing. Poor service at bar, no ice and you yourself had to go into private function bar if you wanted ice for your drinks. Chaos.

The property in general is very good. Rooms are always clean. Customer service is normally 100%.
The breakfast was so disappointing. We were told to take ‘any table for two’ and left. We had to ask to order our cooked breakfast (we are regular guests and are used to the main area for breakfasts where we go and order ourselves).
This time it was the small eating area. We ordered; bacon, sausage, hash browns and beans for 2 people.
The sausages were extremely well done, the bacon was so hard it broke up as I tried to cut it! My husband left his. The rest was cold!
Almost both breakfasts were left.
The fuses kept tripping when someone attempted to use one of the toasters. We also had to ask for the flasks to be filled with hot water to make hot beverages.
Normally the stay is fantastic and fault free!
I paid £117.00 and I felt this was wasted.
We cannot see ourselves returning which is sad as this is our favourite hotel!
We were highly disappointed and would not recommend.

Location. Wish I was staying there early in the year to appreciate the views more.
Had to switch rooms 3 times until the room heater worked.
After that it was fine.

Lovely hotel with fabulous views over the Tyne and also a beach. Staff very welcoming and friendly especially the receptionists. Breakfast was large with plenty of choice and variety to suit everyone's palate. A big bonus was that there is plenty of free parking.

Mushroom and potato on the floor by table from night before and nobody cleaned the floor. Put us off our breakfast. Itwas better when you could serve yourself. Milk jugs useless.
Milk jugs that are impossible to pour from. Staff clattering around with teapots etc in the evening whilst we try to eat. Menu limited.

Amazing location overseeing the sea, nice room, wide enough our family, the lady from housekeeping who dis our kid bed was so nice and helpful, the room furniture and decoration was warm and lovely, clean bed and bathroom.
The hall was stuffed and smells
We requested late check out through the disk and this was quite expensive for just 2 hours extension, we should had done this through our booking account. The lady at the breakfast wasn’t friendly for us but was more friendly to other customers, she’d nearly ignored us.

Dated.

Our superior double room (room 232) had 3 windows overlooking the river. Very good views as the sun was glorious on the morning of our departure. We attended a family gathering in a function room overlooking the river also. Staff very busy supporting multiple roles.
Room had everything we needed for one night's stay. Would recommend.
Room a little dated and tired in places, eg bathroom lighting, old taps (not mixers).

The location is superb. Really enjoyed being at this point on the Tyne looking out to sea. Help from some staff was excellent when asked.
Breakfast not up to what usually expected. Bar was poorly stocked. We suffered from an insominiac in the bedroom above who was stomping around and playing the TV loudly at 2.30 am in the morning. Therefore soundproofing of bedrooms not good.

The location
Rooms very dated, room was freezing, had to get reception to come help with heating. Was given a blank card which was meant to keep heating on while I was out all day at a wedding, came back and room was freezing and heating off. No information given at check in on how to control heating. Service was shocking, had a meal when I arrived after a 5.5 hour drive and the scampi was so overcooked. Breakfast was ok, however service was awful, had to clear all our plates from table before we got hot breakfast. I paid £224 for 2 nights which isn’t cheap, so so disappointed and would not go back.

Location was nice and hotel
The room smelt damp and the bed was small did not fit the surround so could not reach the bed side cabinet also the reading light had no bulb, I paid for room with a view but was on the ground floor so could not see much. At breakfast the toast was very slow and sausages not cooked enough, Don’t want to go on to much but don’t think I stay again rather pick a premier inn

Hotel was clean and tidy, staff were all friendly and polite. Bar prices were very reasonable. We didn't get food as we arrived too late. But they gave use cutlery for out take away food we ordered. The staff at breakfast were very nice and polite, breakfast was nice and plenty of choice.
The night we stayed Wednesday the 1st October. It was karaoke 🎤 and the older ladies and gents around the area were have a right good singalong.... it was a great atmosphere.

Absolutely beautiful location… friendly staff..
Shower wasn’t good.. dial on wall leaked and ran all over floor.. no bath mat… no hairdryer supplied and had to fetch extra milk etc and staff had to search all over because they wasn’t stocked up … Once at breakfast were told there was no tables for 2 available even though there was larger tables set up.. but a more qualified lady told us we could sit at one …

Very impressive drive, entrance and reception area. Good sized bedroom overlooking the beach. Very pleasant helpful staff. Good choice at breakfast.
Bed too hard for our taste. Breakfast finished at 9.15am sharp which is a bit early for people on holiday
