The hotel is well located in the centre of Darlington. It has some car parking space but from reading previous reviews we decided to park in the Cornmill shopping Centre car park which was a few minutes walk away. We had a good size room on the third floor with views over the town. Reaching the room from reception involved two lifts and a bit of walking, which wasn’t a problem for us. The staff were all friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

Hotel has around 23 car spaces we got there around 12 and loads of spaces you have to pay for parking, hotel staff nice to deal with we had cream tea and afternoon tea which was nice lovely scones, the room we had was privilege which was a big room lovely powerful shower over bath ,bed compfy, going to our room stairs or lifts there was so many corridors it felt like the titanic like watching the film with so many corridors. Breakfast was nice. The hotel was right in town which was a lovely town with every shop you could think of and shopping precincts and some older shops all spread around the side streets the boyes shop end of centre had 3 levels and everything you could think off also the restaurant the old yard tapas bar had lovely food which was close by The only faults with hotel was the old windows rattling which we stopped with card and upstairs room decided to make noise all night from 12-5 in the morning

1n stay due to family funeral Pros Emailing hotel easy and late arrival noted Staff are all lovely Breakfast was super. Overnight oats at breakfast is best ever! Great selection of food and a coffee machine to grab a nice drink. Ginger shots also available. Clean sheets, towels and bathroom, bed comfortable. Cons Room had damp issues on wall (and I needed to use my inhaler). Desk had residual stuff on it - could have been paint from wall? Room very hot and with arriving late we didn't know there was a fan in the wardrobe. Even with secondary glazing, the hotel is very noisy if people are shouting in the town in the early hours. We asked if our suitcase could be held whilst we attended the funeral. We returned to find it was still by reception and not locked away. Tip to visitors. If you need decent sleep, ask for a room in a quiet area. Check wardrobe for fan. Definitely eat the overnight oats!!! Tip to management: Look at damp issues in any rooms. Ensure staff can lock luggage away. Would we stay again? Possibly. The staff are lovely and the breakfast was great. I just feel the hotel needs tlc in places.
