โBeautiful hotel, decor was fantastic, everything spotless and of the highest standard. Breakfast was amazing - restaurant standard. Canโt recommend this place highly enough, 5 mins walk down the hill to the town โ
โThere were several family members who stayed her for a family reunion and it was perfect. Caitlin was a lovely lady who looked after us she was extremely kind and helpful nothing was too much trouble. The rest of the staff were just as nice and friendly. The meals were great and huge, it was a shame that we couldn't have stayed longer to try one of there roast dinners.
The rooms were spotless and very well kept. If we needed extras for our rooms we only needed to ask.
We would definitely stay...
โTrรจs bon rapport qualitรฉ-prix. Lโhรดtel offre une grande flexibilitรฉ pour lโinstallation, mรชme en cas dโarrivรฉe tardive, ce qui est trรจs apprรฉciable. La chambre รฉtait propre, le lit spacieux et confortable, parfait pour passer une bonne nuit. Pour le tarif proposรฉ, la prestation est vraiment satisfaisante et rรฉpond pleinement aux attentes.โ
โI forgot what they call it when thereโs a gem within a gem; I think the term is inclusion. In any case Durham itself as a gem, and this hotel feels like the best of the charming character of Durham distilled into a building thatโs at once historical, and yet completely full of modern convenience.โ
โLovely friendly staff, garden room was lovely and clean and well equippedโฆ.only problem we had was the heating was set at 35 degrees upon arrival and it took a while to cool it down with windows and doors open.
Would stay here again without a doubt โ
โOverall everything was good, our only issue was after being there for a few days we noticed the toaster was full of crumbs, obviously not been emptied for quite some time, and the oven tray had not been cleaned after it had been used. We hadnโt met the owner, so decided it was easier just to clean them both before using them.
On the hole, everything else was excellent.
There was no recycling facilities, which was quite a surprise, and also a slight disappointment. Everything else was above...
โvery lovely place. Interior was remodelled - it's very modern. nice, clean and comfortable. Nice English breakfast and warm/ kind service from hotel. I enjoyed a lot this hotel.โ
โSet in lovely countryside views, owners & staff all veey friendly & helpful, fabulous choice of breakfasts, meals available during evening also with a varied menu including gluten free. No hesitation in recommending The Royal Oak for any length of stay, wish we could have stayed for longer!!!!โ
