12.1 km from Short Sands

"The room was massive and clearly newly decorated. It was let down on the first night by the previous occupants filthy towels still being in the room. The other major issue with the room is the noise. The room is at the front of the hotel and the noise from the revellers outside and the sound system just below the room meant no sleep. There should be a new word for places that charge you to stay but you can’t actually get any sleep. On the plus side the staff were friendly and the cocktails...

Top Short Sands Hotel Reviews

The Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place sea view big room. Very clean and nice breakfast very helpful. Children loved it lots of fun 😀"

The Sea Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel staff were very helpful and the hotel is well situated for shopping eating out and the hotel is very pleasant I would stay there again very happy with the breakfast and they offer a good menu"

York House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Hotel and room were clean and comfortable and the owner very willing to please. The location is well situated with easy acess to the town centre shops and seafront. Traffic noise is minimal and presents no problems with sleeping. The morning breakfast offers a large and varied selection with something available for all tastes, The full English breakfast is highly recommended to set you up for the day. As a suggestion a tea towel and small sponge would be an advantage upon the sink in order to swill items used. Having said that used crockery and cups were very quickly renewed. A very enjoyable stay and will definately return. An ammendment is required to the information brochure and "Expedia" booking information in regards to Parking. Free parking is now very limited with just Two spaces at the hotel frontage. The large carpark is under new ownership and is "not free" on weekends. The fee is £4.80 all day from 9am until 18.00pm every day Mon to Sun and bank holidays but is free overnight after 18.00pm On street parking is 50p per hour upto £4.50 all day upto 17.30pm with Sunday only free and overnight parking free until 09.00am The theatre car park which is 100yards away is free all day and overnight but gets full very quickly."

Windsor Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very welcoming and helpful. I had a great room with a partial sea view. The hotel was well placed for my visit. This is the second time I have used this hotel and I will be back."

Elmswood Guest House

8/10 Good

"Small and cosy. But more than ideal for my plans. Perfect location too."

Seafront Apartments

8/10 Good

"Good location although no dedicated parking, although the owner did provide parking vouchers to allow street parking, however due to busy school holidays and roadworks this was a bit problematic. Good communication from owner on check-in/entry to apartments. Our unit was up several flights of narrow steep stairs, and although two chair lifts were present there was still an intermediate set of stairs that weren’t covered - the chair lifts restricted ability to walk up the stairs with a suitcase safely. Kitchen well appointed although compact and crowded eating/sitting/cooking area. Only provided decaffeinated coffee along with caffeinated and decaf tea, however good to provide drinking chocolate. Close to beaches, shops and rail."

Little Haven Hotel On The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Clean fabulous views. Great breakfast, plenty of parking."

The Metropolitan

8/10 Good

"A great welcome and great food. Location is perfect for Whitley Bay and views of the coastline."

The View

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic & peaceful location but still very close to the Main Street."
