This is one of Newcastle's best hotels, with an unrivalled position handy for both the quayside and a quick march into the city centre. I read that it is where Anthony Gormley likes to stay when he is in town constructing angels or whatever. The rooms are quite traditional and less trendy than, say, the Malmaison, but comfortable and the staff very helpful. We stayed on one of their special deals over a long weekend, getting a double room for three nights for the price of two, which was around £220.
