Think free Wi-Fi, a team available 24/7 and a super central city location – there’s no better place to chill out! The Social has a menu to match whenever hunger strikes (not forgetting the little ones too) with food and drink on offer throughout the day. You’ll even be sorted late into the evening with our late night, light bites menu. There’s also a bar full of lip-smacking drinks with amazing offers like 2 for 1 cocktails from 5pm-9pm! Checking in has been made even easier too.

Hotel description

Thanks to our city centre location next to the Pennyferry Bridge over the River Wear, Durham’s best attractions are within walking distance of our central Durham Premier Inn. There’s plenty to explore throughout your stay – Durham Castle and Durham Cathedral share UNESCO World Heritage Site status, and these historic landmarks are unmissable on Durham city breaks. Cross Milburngate Bridge from our Premier Inn Durham hotel and visit Crook Hall Gardens before taking the kids to Adventure Valley, or why not tour the popular Oriental Museum? Fuel up before sightseeing in Durham at our restaurant, where we’ll also be serving up some delicious dishes in the evening too! Best of all, you’ll have a stylish room with free Wi-Fi and a super-comfy bed waiting for you after fun days out in Durham.
