North East England, United Kingdom hotel rooms at the Independent

"Staff were very friendly at reception and breakfast including the chef. Nice restaurant and bar area."

"As for the hotel and location it’s great spot ! For sleeping to hot , Train noise and pillows lumpy not nice at all . One receptionist a bad attitude on arrival it was 2pm with the word WHAT . I said we would like to book in answer ! NOT TILL 3PM . Shoot me down ! "

"The Great North Hotel is a 3yr old sympathetically, spacious and modern extension to the Three Mile which clearly is a well established venue at the heart of the Gosforth community. Located on the outskirts of Newcastle close to Jesmond & Gosforth high street it is an ideal location well served by 4 buses into the 'Toon' (c£7.50 rtn for 2). The metro is a short walk away. Booking online with Expedia was a doddle. Cheap too with an excellent member discount (£118 ro basis) for a Fri/Sat stay. ...

"We visit Durham at least once a month & try to stay at the same place all the time however we stayed here on this occasion, as usual place appeared to be closed. Very nice room & clean. Only issue I had was pillows weren’t very comfortable & the noise of a drill going in room next door just after 9am on day of departure, was a bit of a shock. We Would stay again though. "

"Excellent "

"Country feel in urban environment. Nice building and room but limited facilities. We only had breakfast but it wasn't exceptional: we had a long delay in it arriving...and cooked breakfast was cold."

"What a Gem. Fast friendly service. Food was excellent - nice to see a menu with something different on - not the normal Steak, Pies, Pasta or Fish. Not many places do Venison Mince and Dumplings. Pity I’m retiring - so the next visit will be for a social visit. Well done all. "
