"A bright light!!"

Just the one night here on route to Northumberland, friendly welcome at reception, room as always clean and comfortable, decent shower, the one drawback was there was building work going on and our room overlooked the site and there was a security light on all night, this coupled with the bright light from a premises across the road made for not the best nights sleep. Aside from that the hotel was easy to find on the edge of a retail park, had a restaurant for breakfast (other restaurants are available close by), we had no trouble parking unlike some, and there are bus stops close by to take you into Auckland. Would I stay again, yes I would, in fact thinking about going to Kynren and I would use this hotel for that.

"Nothing special - but adequate."

There is nothing wrong with the Premier Inn at Bishop Auckland - but nothing special about it either. I paid £175 for two nights bed only. Good car parking, despite considerable building work going on. Bland welcome on reception. Adequate room with a bath and the usual Premier Inn facilities. But a glacial speed internet - absolutely useless unless you pay £5 for the 'ultimate wi-fi' . Also poor cleaning. I found somebody else's deodorant under my bed and a hair grip on the floor. The Brewers Fayre next door was a pleasant place to eat with very reasonable prices for breakfast and an evening meal.

"Extended family trip to see Kenryn"

Initial impression, difficult to see The Hotel as covered in scaffolding. Friendly receptionist, easy to check in. Musty smell and very dusty carpets, the lift out of order. We booked adjoining rooms due to our mobility needs. One family room and an adapted room. The adapted room had a full length cracked mirror held together with blue tape. While the toilet and hand basin were clean, the wet room tiles and shower legs were very mouldy. We were informed by receptionist that The Hotel was being renovated. We were not aware of this when we booked. At £163 per room per night this was not value for money.

"Great accessible facilities."

The manager of this Premier Inn went above and beyond to assist the booking and to ensure I got the accessible room I required. I was very impressed at his caring and thoughtful attitude. Thank you so much. The Inn itself was ideal for getting to Kynren, the show we had come to see and the Beef Eater pub next door was perfect for breakfast and evening meal. Thank you Premier Inn Bishop Auckland. 😁

Hotel description

Enjoy a laid-back stopover at our Premier Inn Bishop Auckland hotel. Set just a short drive away from the city centres of Durham and Darlington, it's a great base for stays in the north east. Explore the sites around this small market town - from art exhibitions to live music, there's always something going on at the Bishop Auckland Town Hall, plus Auckland Castle is a must see for history-lovers. Alternatively, why not head over to Bishop Auckland Retail Park for a bit of shopping, or tour Locomotion, the National Railway Museum at Shildon. However you choose to spend your day, our Brewers Fayre restaurant is a great place to start your evening.
