"Wonderful staff, great hotel"
Great location in Durham, modern and bright hotel. Rooms are what you would expect, really nice and spacious. Cannot praise the staff enough though, so welcoming and friendly, really helpful and clearly happy in their work. Enjoyed our stay, breakfast was good and again staff really helpful. Highly recommened.
"Awful and Misleading"
We were meant to be stopping for our daughter’s graduation beginning of July 2023, only to chance upon the Premier Inn website information that the reservations we had made would NOT be met because this hotel isn’t due to open until September 2023!! Like many others, I think we would have only been told days before our intended booking that we were not able to stay in the city hotel and offered an alternative hotel miles away from the city centre. It is disgraceful of premier inn to allow bookings to be taken, knowing this hotel is not fit for purpose as it is still under construction.
"Don’t book it’s not built!! "
Totally let down booked in December 2022 for daughters graduation no mention that the hotel was in the process of being built!! Only found out by chance that it wasn’t finished had no email or notification from Premier Inn rang today after an hour on hold I found out that they are sending out emails in batches and was offered a room in a Premier inn on an industrial estate. 5 miles away with a £20 discount to cover taxi fairs!! this isn’t good enough and it’s shocking that they took bookings knowing that there was a chance the hotel wouldn’t be finished. Other hotels in the city or full or are now making the most out of the room shortage.
"Don’t book- they have been taking bookings then cancelling for over a year now"
Booked this in December for 3 nights to go to my daughter’s graduation- cancelled one month before graduation and offered an alternative on an industrial park outside of Durham. The hotel has been accepting bookings and then cancelling for over a year now. Can’t book anywhere else as everywhere in the centre of the city is now booked or £1000s
"All good"
Originally booked the soon to be opened Milburngate hotel, but opening was delayed a few months again so we were relocated to the Walkergate hotel on the other side of the river. Parked in multi story around the corner, all good. Check in was smooth and easy. Staff were great. Didn't eat there. Room was good. 👍
