Good but not great
Nice hotel in a great location. Room wasn't ready at check in (we arrived after the 2pm check in time) and made to wait nearly half an hour before it was ready, not very good service or communication at check in. Excellent breakfast, lovely helpful restaurant staff. Nice pool and sauna.

Tired holes . Com
Paid for delux room with river view. The room was very basic and in order to see the river we would have had to stand on the tired looking sofa underneath the dorma window. The shower was old and had little or no water pressure. Disappointed overall with the room. The staff were pleasant. Disappointing. Won’t rush back

Close to the centre of Durham not right in the centre within walking distances to restaurants, the castle and cathedral. Durham train station is a little further walking distances away about 15 minutes.

A lot of money for the type of hotel it is,rooms are very travelodge premier inn standards, had to pay for robes and slippers, which you normally get for free at other hotels and on arrival into room there was no slippers, reception staff said they had ran out but still got charged £20, £20 for breakfast in the morning which tbh was the worst hotel breakfast I’ve had everything was overcooked and dry. Never again

Good location but staff and room issues
Good location. BUT: The room was called cozy ie small. They put a chair under the desk and you couldnt get past it. Wifi was unpredictable. The shower was badly designed and leaked all over the floor. 2 of the staff were quite rude and abrupt. Natasha (at reception) thought she was the bees knees and treated everyone around her, staff and customers, with disdain.

Not good value for money
We stayed in a family room and for £200 a night I expected a more superior room. The room was tired, carpets grubby, and a lovely view of the roof and car park. 3* at the very best. A lot of money considering the kids were on a sofa bed, which we had to ask twice for room service to make up!! Breakfast was decent enough and the lobby area has been modernised. Pool was OK.

Excellent stay and staff were so kind and helpful, having made the mistake of booking a different hotel and on arrival it certainly wasn’t as advertised we turned up at The radison blu to see if they had any availability, they did and also gave us a free room upgrade and complimentary parking, thank you for an excellent stay.
