Royal Station Hotel, Newcastle

...found myself staying at the Royal Station Hotel in Newcastle. The location is certainly fantastic, ideal for the train station and the Metro station and also for the centre of town shops and restaurants. However, I would think twice about staying there next time - the price and location may be good, but the staff and the noise from the train station put me off. Booking Booking was easily completed by emailing info@royalstationhotel.com. The phone ...
...looks fabulous from the outside - a big old Victorian building in Newcastle's surprisingly elegant city centre. The main street diagonally opposite the hotel leads to the city centre and a wide range of restaurants, including Newcastle's China Town. Arrival I arrived by train at about 12.30, after which it took about 2 minutes to walk to the hotel. On arrival, I was initially told that I couldn't check in for another hour, but after I asked the ...

Review of Royal Station Hotel, Newcastle

I stayed at this hotel in April 2007 having found it on LateRooms.com and me and my girlfriend paid a total of £89 for one nights stay in a standard double room. We arrived mid afternoon and we glad of the location - the building seems part of the station! The interior was impressive with clean carpets and a grand looking chandalier (probably not real). The check in staff were friendly and helpful. I think the best compliment you can give about ...
...So we were checked in quickly and off we went to our rooms. The corridors I have to say did not impress me and at times I could definitely tell that this place was built in the 1800's. By the time we reached the room though it was all ok. Room was standard fare, TV, Phone, Desk & chair, tea/coffee facilities and a fridge. I wasn't overwhelmed by the quality or cleanliness of the room but there was certainly no cause for complaint. The bathroom was ...
