"On entering the property we was greeted by the reception staff they were very friendly and helpful, they made our short stay feel at ease, had everything we needed and the owner was so polite even carried my bag upstairs and said anything we need just ask. Really can’t fault our room was lovely felt homely & cosy, the area was nice & quiet. Highly recommend this place. We had the family room as it was the last one left for us to book & was a great size room. 10/10 "
"Great time. Enjoyed a meal in the Rib room. Spa facilities were super and definitely great getting us ready for a wedding, also dealing with the consequences from the wedding. "

"I forgot what they call it when there’s 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 that’s at once historical, and yet completely full of modern convenience."
"Goid comfy bed in a nice room we were upgraded without extra cost. Wifi a bit patchy when the hotel was busy. No problem at all parking although of course there is the extra cost. Good location for central Durham"
"Bright, spacious room in this lovely hotel. Bar area works v well and it’s nice to be able to sit outside.
Excellent central location means you an walk everywhere. Highly recommended."
"Stayed in the Wolsey apartment at the rear of the building. Instructions sent didn't state this and we were left wandering up and down the three floors of the main building looking for the apartment. In the end we had to call customer service for the correct location.
The apartment was nice, clean and in a good location.
However, the 5 spaces for parking were right outside the front door of the apartment. Although it stated free parking it was roulette trying to get a space. I don't know if it was other residents or chancers using it. We ended up having to pay for parking due to this.
The apartment had a dish washer but no tablets, there was no washing up liquid and no tea spoons.
The TV only gave BBC channels with a good reception. All other channels the sound was broken and picture pixilated. Also the TV wouldn't connect to the WiFi to enable apps like Iplayer and netflix to be used. Called customer services they said it would be fixed in the morning. Admittedly the following night the channels were better but not perfect and still the TV wouldn't hook up to the WiFi so still no apps.
The following evening when we got back we we back to square one, only a good reception on BBC channels.
The other annoying feature was the unused University teaching block next to the property car park must have some issue with its alarm. It went off 5 times during our stay including late at night for approx 20 minutes.
All in all would we return? Unfortunately not to this proper"
"This was a great experience, I am finishing my second masters and this was a great place to be while working at University of Durham. If I had known it was so nice, I would’ve booked a longer stay. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and I set off the fire alarm using the toaster and they were very patient with me. It was a little warm the only thing that could be a benefit is a fan."
"After a little trouble finding the location everything was wonderful. The apartment was sparkling clean, the communication was quick and helpful, and the location was fantastic. I'd definitely stay here again."
"Absolutely outstanding guest house - I was really impressed from the moment I arrived. The room was enormous and very comfortable, with everything I needed. It was the perfect temperature and almost unnervingly quiet and peaceful. The bed was very comfortable and everything was spotless. Breakfast was great, and the owners were very accommodating."
