Convenient location
The hotel is in a very nice and convenient location, close to the main street and next door to the main park. It has got its own parking. I was annoyed that I was allocated room 4 above noisy and smelly kitchen fans just under my windows and it was only after my complaint I was moved to a better room No.10, away from the kitchen. Why wasn't I given a better room from the very beginning since both rooms were available? Then in the morning it turned out that the shower did not produce hot water although there was hot water in the taps. Overall, the hotel is very run down and requires refurbishment. The staff and breakfast were nice.

The first room I was putting had water stains down several of the walls there was a leak coming from the ceiling. Change my room which was reasonable, but there was a lot of noise coming from downstairs and outside of the pub. They then emptied the bins right next to my window. About half 11. The other reason I stayed there is because Bruce Springsteen was playing in Newcastle city centre and couldn’t find a reasonable priced hotel. I paid the extra money just stayed in Newcastle city centre

Tired looking. No wifi. Wallpaper peeling off bedroom walls, shower just trickles out. Very outdated, not what you'd expect for 2024. The positives were it was clean and the bed was comfortable.

LOCATION IS SPOT ON FOR MORPETH VISIT
Well located for visiting Morpeth and surrounding area. Only a short walk into the centre where there are an abundance of places to eat and drink. Free parking available. This is a pub with rooms above. The pub side is very pleasant with a lively weekend atmosphere. The rooms above are basic and in need of an uplift. In ours the TV refused to work and the shower would not heat up to an acceptable temperature. That said it was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was included. Ample portions but again the set-up was basic. Happy to give 3 stars on the basis of location and price.

A rough diamond
A beautiful old building in an excellent location with really charming communal areas and very good breakfast, but the rooms and all the corridors need refurbishing. We started in a nice room with new, large ensuite but, during our first night the heavy rain caused water to leak down one of the walls into the bedroom (due to the lead being stolen off the roof, we were told). We moved to another room, but this was obviously one of the much older rooms as the heating wasn’t working and neither was the shower. There was no hot water from the tap in the washbasin and the cold water tap constantly leaked. The heating was eventually sorted after a few portable heaters were found to be faulty. We were given the option of moving again but we decided to stick it out for our third and final night. The saving grace of this establishment is Diane, the Manageress, who was always smiling, friendly, efficient and amicable, despite being on reception, cooking and serving our breakfast, as well as sorting our problems.

Tired
The hotel is in need of a coat of paint. The communal areas and room were very tired. The bar area was not very clean and tables were left uncleared long after they were vacated. I’m assuming that there wasn’t enough staff.

Shockingly awful.
Booked a one night stay. Room awful, dirty, in need of a total re fit. Tired peeling decor, curtains hanging off,stains and mould, dirty skirting boards, stains on walls. Breakfast service slow, tea urn cold, black pudding and hash brown not cooked, toast was warm bread. Breakfast service staff need full service training , extremely poor setup. Girl serving on tables texting from her phone then touching plates. Worst place ive ever stayed in. Have read a guest says its like Fawlty Towers, id have been happier there!

Adorable hotel in adorable town
The rooms were lovely and the location was perfect! The included breakfast was delicious and a great value. The WiFi wasn’t working and neither was the tv in our room but Morpeth was such a cute town that we explored a lot and weren’t in our rooms much to need those comforts

Fine for the price. Conveniently close to town centre but not right in it, and a fairly lively pub (when others nearby were nearly empty). Parking in their private yard. The room was perfectly clean, the bathroom was clean and in good condition and the shower good and hot (an aged yet functioning mixer unit). My main negative comment is about appearance and the initial negative impression this creates; the stairwell walls, corridor and room doors were quite battered or scratched, the room decor strange and outdated, and there's clearly been some issue with the ceiling and a leaking flat roof at some point.

Awful place to stay. The staff seemed like they didn't want to be there and were not at all welcoming. The rooms smelt really bad, the beds were uncomfortable, the rooms were very stuffy. 2 of the rooms we booked didn't have hot water, no offer to move room or an apology, or part refund. We had a funeral to go to so it wasn't ideal. The breakfast was good but the waitress again seemed like she didn't want to be there.

Disappointed
The downstairs area of the hotel which is the bar and restaurant was clean and well decorated. The evening meal and breakfast were very nice. But once you went upstairs to the bedrooms it seemed very tatty our room and evidence of damp on one of the walls causing the paint to flake. The bathroom was also in need of modernization the toilet seat was loose, they'd replaced the shower but had left the remains of the old one. The power points in the room were in the wrong place there were 3 together on one wall and 2 in another wall. I think now there should be some beside the bed for charging phones. There was no WiFi in the bedroom much to our son's disgust the only WiFi was in the bar area. We only stayed for one night, we wouldn't have wanted to stay any longer

Room was sad, courtyard view was grim dead pigeon and bird poop everywhere. Went for a takeaway bacon sandwich for breakfast which was slices of kingsmill and 3 slices on bacon. Croissant was good so went back for another which was stale. Coffee was fresh. Shower was new but zero pressure been better with a kids beach watering can. light was flickering.

Needs refurbishment
Great location and good breakfast. Rooms and bathroom really dated and need to be refurbished. If they did this they could charge more and have greater occupancy as it seemed there were very few guests staying in the hotel. Put a light bulb in the stairs on permanently!

Comfortable
Two night stay while in the area, and booked with some reserve after seeing some of the reviews posted here. On the plus side, its comfortable, ideally located (for me anyway), warm, and the bar food was absolutely excellent. On the downside, the hotel areas - especially the rooms - desperately need work. The shower was cold on day 2, the wallpaper is peeling off the walls and while clean. the room was generally tatty. I expect its more down to economics rather than neglect by staff or owners who were very welcoming. Trouble is now its in a spiral, it needs revenue to update but its condition is going to put some people off so that reduces bookings. I really hope it gets the investment it needs. I would stay again, and I hope others do too.
