Royal Station Hotel Newcastle Upon Tyne

"Convenient hotel very well situated near CBD and trainstation. Rooms partly renovated. Reception needs still update. Free parking is in front of the hotel near taxi waiting spot. Ordered a superior room, however got a standard room." - Nick Kamminga

"This hotel was well located next to the station and the major conference centre. While the general interior was a little on the faded side, the rooms had been renovated with modern bathrooms and comfortable beds. I would stay again." - Emma Oettinger

"There's a vague air of forgotten grandness about this hotel. As if, sometime in the past, it had been a rather swish place. As it is it is perfectly functional and superbly located for Newcastle's night life and railway station. Road access is a trifle awkward due to local one way systems and parking is not what it might be. Staff were polite if not very pro-active. Having been told that my room was "room only" rather than B&B it would have been good policy to have tried to interest me in the hotel breakfast...a lost opportunity for them. A bit more attention to detail would have made this a break to remember." - John Symon

"This is a very convenient hotel if you do not know the area as there are excellent signs to the main station from the outskirts of Newcastle. It is a pleasant walk to the shops. The hotel has kept much of the old, original quaintness and yet the rooms are well appointed for the price. We were warned that there were parties on around the time of our stay and yet, apart from a few doors banging during the night, we were not disturbed by undue noise. We paid the extra for a superior room and felt it was value for money. We would certainly use this hotel again and would recommend it to others." - Anonymous
