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
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
โItโs a lovely hotel and very convenient stop. The staff were super friendly and helpful.
We only had breakfast but it was delicious and plenty of it. The decor was lovely but needed a bit of tidying and the vase on the table needed a clean. Iโm not keen on fake flowers which gather dust and the winter sun shows the glass vase needing a polish.
Iโm being picky hoping Iโm being helpful. It was a fab stay and I thoroughly recommend it and would stay again. โ
โBright, spacious room in this lovely hotel. Bar area works v well and itโs nice to be able to sit outside.
Excellent central location means you an walk everywhere. Highly recommended.โ
โA fantastic castle experience: itโs so much more interesting to stay in one than just looking. The staff were friendly and helpful and food was good too. There were a lot of stairs to negotiate to reach our top floor accommodation.โ
โFrom the moment we arrived till the morning we left we were made very welcome by all the people involved in running the OYO . They went above and beyond to help us out from Georgia booking taxis for us to my friend behind the bar going to his house to get me cigarettes when I had run out big thanks (hope you enjoy Edinburgh ๐๐๐) cleanliness spot on ,food amazing,and very reasonable for top quality,. would recommend to anyone looking forward to seeing you all again thanks

โAn overnight stay needed before a uni offer day at Durham., I just wish we could have stayed longer.
Clean, comfortable, everything you could possibly need and the views !
Hopefully the uni offer will be accepted and I can stay again for a while longer !โ
