Advantages: great location, cheap, nice rooms, excellent food Disadvantages: no parking, quite dated
a great service with a smile. The only downside was that the tables were a bit too close together, but this wasn't that big a problem.
I have read a number of reviews about the Royal Albion and some have been not to complentary about it, complaing the décor was very dated and their stay was quite unpleasant. I however disagree with these views and thought the hotel to be perfectly adequate for a stay in Brighton. The location was excellent, the room nice and the food on offer was splendid. I would certainly recommend it and will be staying there again on my next trip to the south coast. The only problem with the hotel was that it doesn't have its own car park which would be a problem for elderly guests as it's a ten minute walk to the nearest car park and the parking is quite expensive, however this is a minor issue really. For a three star ...
Advantages: Comfortable, convenient for city sight seeing Disadvantages: luke warm bath water and average food in restaurant

Old Elvert, Durham DH1 3JN
A BIT OF SCENE SETTING:
This hotel is part of the Marriott chain but is an old hotel which was once the home of Elizabeth Bowes an ancestor of the Queen Mother. Apparently it was often visited when it was privately owned by Edward VII when he was up in Durham. It has had quite a large series of extensions and now boasts 150 bedrooms, some of which are suites and family rooms all and have en suite bathrooms ( As you might expect in a hotel I would have thought). This is a four star hotel right in the centre of Durham so perfect for a city break as you can park your car in the hotel (complimentary) car park and walk round the city which is very compact and just a hop over the road from the hotel.
We booked on the internet and got a special deal for two night?s bed ...
Advantages: Great location, lovely entrance areas Disadvantages: very shabby in bedrooms
there is a hotel with a similar name. We tried to get in (it was locked) and even buzzed for the porter- too late we noticed the sign telling us that this was not the Royal Terrace Hotel.
We found our hotel a bit further down the street, and after parking the car, went in. I have to mention that a down side to this hotel is that it doesn?t have a car park, and the car has to be parked on the street. We aren?t ?precious? about the car, but didn?t fancy having it towed a way, although the man assured us that over the weekend it would be fine?it was!

It is actually situated a very short walk from the city centre, so no need to get taxis or buses.

The entrance to the hotel is very modern- all brown and cream, very clean, with sofas ...
