Lovely location by the river. In general the staff were friendly, apart from the head barman. The hotel itself in need of an upgrade and the bedrooms & dining room far too not.

On the Wall. Lovely location near the river with outside seating areas. Lots of comfortable seating inside. Room was spacious. Mix up with both the table booking and food order in the restaurant.

We thought there swimming leisure facilities. Didn't realise dogs were allowed in rooms heard them in the morning a few rooms up frightened when passed them in the corridor.Breakfast was excellent, but the main fish was on the small size for evening meal. Garden and bridge location was lovely.

Lovely meal in the restaurant but the rooms are very basic and pack lunch for £10 very expensive- nit even a full size bottle of water knowing everyone is walking!

Our room was lovely and had modern conveniences, but it was quite an adventure getting there. Why would a floor have rooms numbered in the 100s and in the 300? And so many fire doors and short ups and downs.
On the plus side, the breakfast buffet had the largest selection we have seen, with plenty of fresh fruit and lovely pastries in addition to everything you might wish in a full English breakfast.
And the grounds were lovely.

Wonderful two night stay. Like others I noted some of the mixed reviews but our stay was excellent. This is a 3* hotel and easily hits the mark, yes a few areas with wear ‘n tear but room and bathroom was clean, restaurant was really nice serving good food and a wide choice. Staff were all excellent; we’d definitely stay again if in the area!!

Positive:
- The hotel is at a beautiful location, next to a small river and directly on the Hadrian‘s Wall path.
- The hotel is dog-friendly (when you are a dog lover), so be aware when you have pet-allergies.
- It is very dependent which staff member you are dealing with, some are friendly with a great customer orientation, some have an attitude…..
Negative:
- the bathroom sink was full with water: plug was stuck. Reported this at the reception so in the evening we discovered the room was skipped for cleaning and the water still there.
- staff leaves the masterkeys at the outside of the (closed) door of the room they are working in, so don‘t leave any valuables in your room when you are out.
- The hotel is dog-friendly (when you are not a dog lover)

We had a very comfortable, relaxing stay during our 3 days hiking Hadrians Wall. Perfect location for access to the wall, clean comfortable accommodation and good food
