A beautiful hotel with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Our room (the Bamburgh) was large, bright and very comfortable. There’s a great choice for breakfast and for dinner (with my gluten intolerance catered for brilliantly). The hotel is literally opposite the castle with stunning walks on the doorstep.

Luxurious hotel with beautiful rooms. Bed was super comfortable and huge. Gorgeous immaculately clean bathroom with rainfall shower and free standing bath.

Beautiful hotel

Beautiful hotel and room, in a great location to visit Alnwick town and Castle. Leigh and the staff couldn’t have been more welcoming. We didn’t have our evening meal at hotel (though definitely will do on our next visit!) however the breakfast was delicious with a great variety to choose from.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Lovely hotel and very nice staff. Very conveniently located in the town and for visiting the castle. We gave 4 stars for 2 reasons: 1) although they allow dogs in the rooms, they're not allowed in the breakfast room so they suggested we either left our dog in our room on her own (which we did and she barked continuously) or we breakfast separately - most places have a dog-friendly eating area; and 2) parking is quite a challenge. Otherwise, a lovely stay.
