Newcastle City Centre (Millennium Bridge) hotel

Good location, reasonably priced parking. Breakfast was fine. All as expected and beds were comfortable too. The family in the room above us were making a lot of noise and credit to the staff who dealt with the matter immediately on both occasions.

The hotel was clean and very friendly. Our breakfast host Alex was just the best. Friendly, kind and paid attention to everything. All the staff were courteous and helpful and made our stay thoroughly enjoyable. The hotel is close to the river and has enjoyable walks along the Tyne and to the city centre. The breakfast was excellent and a good start to the day. (A long day at Beamish)

A premier inn that feels as though it needs a big injection of money spent on it. Staff were excellent - friendly and helpful however just not enough of them. There was a long wait for us at check with nobody at the desk. The couple in front of us rung the bell continuously for good while before somebody came and informed us that they were ‘on their own time’ so left us alone again to wait whilst they found somebody else. This staff member, however, was extremely helpful and friendly - as were the breakfast staff. We explored Newcastle and decided at the last minute to watch the match at the hotel bar instead of at the local sports bar. Unfortunately upon arrival we found that the television in the restaurant didn’t work so had to go to our rooms to watch it. Room 1 had stained bedding and room 2 had a bed that hadn’t been made at all. Great location, easy parking, lovely staff. Could just do with a bit of money spent on some more staff, bar television fix and a deep clean of the fusty smelling carpets in the hallways.

The outside of the hotel looked very drab and needs refreshing. The car park is relatively small. On accessing the hotel, reception is up a level, either by stairs or a small lift. I was able to get into the lift with my wheelchair and luggage, however it was a snug fit! After initial issues with check in (I didnt tick a box when booking for business) the staff were lovely and helpful. My accessible room was on the same level, just 3 doors to get through to my room. The doors were not automatic, and trying to juggle them, in my wheelchair, plus my luggage was tricky to say the least. The room was plenty big enough for me to park my chair in the corner out of the way. The room was adequate for a business trip, but if you plan on staying in your room more, I would advise against it! The TV was ok, relatively small for a larger room. A lot of the channels didnt work. The bathroom was clean and reasonable sized. The handrail was the length of the bath, but overhung so it made getting into and out of the bath a little difficult as the bar was in the way. Wifi was patchy, you can pay if you need better service. I didnt. The wifi was slow and not suitable for working or downloading stuff. Was fine for a quick check on socials, checking emails and what to do in the area. Overall, it is what you'd expect.

Could not fault the room or service here. All of the staff were so lovely. Hotel is in a good location and just a short walk from Newcastle centre. More than enough on site parking available. Great breakfast!! There is no air conditioning but a fan was provided which proved sufficient.
