Hoteller nær Bowes Museum

"Although the hotel is looking "tired", e.g. light fittings hanging off in the bathroom, I felt safe. Just wanted somewhere to sleep for 1 night, therefore ideal"

"An amazing experience from start to finish from the staff that greet you at the door to the reception and waiting staff. All were courteous and warm. As for the actual hotel, it is stunning and we can’t wait to go back. We upgraded to the junior suite and it was worth the extra. Couldn’t recommend Dakota enough."

"Stunning hotel, clean, comfy was amazing and the river view topped it off which was not expected. Everything you need I will definitely stay here again close to everything "

"Well situated hotel. Everything we needed was in easy walking distance. Very friendly, helpful and flexible staff. Good breakfast. Wine and cheese evenings are a very good idea. Friends visited us and they were made to feel very welcome. We’ll return."

"We have just had a wonderful stay here as my other half was doing the Great North Run. The staff were so helpful polite and attentive. The room was excellent spacious .really comfy beds full bathroom and had everything we needed as well as very quiet. So now comes the restaurant........ wow just wow the food was top notch all freshly cooked and some of the best Italian we have ever had. Portion sizes are not for the faint hearted ie great for a pre run carb load tea for my partner but so...

"Kitchen great for solo guest"

"We stayed for just one night visiting our son at Uni. The apartment was superb. Perfect as a comfortable base for going out and about. Despite the traffic in the area it was quiet. Bed was comfy so a good night’s sleep. Communication from the owner was excellent. Will definitely return. "

"Very nice and simple hotel, as Motel One hotels always are. Clean, efficient and cheap with a perfect location in the city centre."

"The room was beautifully decorated and very clean and comfortable. The tray with tea and coffee and bottled water and cookies was very welcome. We booked dinner and the steak pie was exceptional and the service was good. Breakfast was also very good and it was lovely to sit in the pretty conservatory. We are happy to recommend this hotel and definitely would return ourselves "

"The hotel quality was not as expected. The room had moth flying around and had traces from other guest smashing these on walls and ceiling. "

"Parking was great, right outside the room, food was fantastic and staff were exceptionally helpful. Had a fantastic stay and will be back"

"I really liked this hotel. Conveniently located near train station but quiet. My only concern was that the restaurant is very limited in its offerings (primarily chicken). I was glad to see a broader range of options for breakfast, at least. Overall a nice hotel but I wouldn’t count on the restaurant for dinner. "
