OYO La Spada Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room spacious and bed was a bit hard. Otherwise I was happy with my stay. There is car park at the back. Good bus service into Durham bus station. Small shops nearby. Did have a slight problem when I arrived after 3pm as it was closed. Rang the property and was asked to go at back . All was well."

61 Durham

8/10 Good

"Very comfortable and clean room in a peaceful location just outside the beautiful tiny city of Durham. Friendly and efficient staff made our stay easy and relaxed. We were upgraded to a deluxe room which was very nice and comfy but I would still say this is pretty cosy especially the extremely small shower!"

Delta Hotels Durham Royal County

"Good comfortable rooms.Good breakfasts and helpful reception staff.A new toaster is needed.Too slow."

The Queens Head

10/10 Excellent

"Easy checking. Staff were really helpful. Room was clean. Would stay again."

Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa

8/10 Good

"Visited on a weekend and there were so many different functions going on that it was too busy and noisy. Really not worth the money. Also room was cold and musty and there was mould on the back of curtains"

Hotel Indigo Durham by IHG

8/10 Good

"Some of the furniture in the room required repair, lighting was dim as no main light. Some light fittings were loose. The windows did not secure and we were on the lower ground floor, Aircon was pointed at the pillows on the bed which has your face and neck cold."

The Highfield Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"On arrival the receptionist was friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and it looked like the hotel had received a face lift. The bathroom was clean with a good shower that had plenty of pressure. We had booked an evening meal in the restaurant which was reasonably priced and the food was good. Breakfast in the morning gave an excellent choice with the full English cooked to order. All in all, a pleasant stay"
