"Brilliant communication from the host. Immaculate house in a quiet residential street. Had a driveway which fit our two cars comfortably. The house itself was beautiful. Stunning decor and attention to detail. Modern appliances and everything you need. Beds were super comfy with soft linen. The location was great as shops and retail park just a few minutes drive away, Durham was approx ten mins by car. The welcome booklet was so detailed it helped us lots. Would absolutely come stay here again,...

Top Durham Hotel Reviews

The Seaton Lane Inn - The Inn Collection Group

8/10 Good

"Great food and lovely staff"

Super 8 by Wyndham Durham

8/10 Good

"Very nice accommodation at Super 8 Durham. Modern decor, clean, warm and comfortable room. However, no cooked breakfast option available and I was disappointed by the request for credit card and personal details despite the fact this stay was all booked and paid for through Hotels.com. This practice is disturbing."

Hotel 52 - Stanley

8/10 Good

"On arrival the lass on duty was very helpful and helped direct me to where I need to go and even went to find out whether the restaurant was still serving or not. the room was clean, light and airy. Only downside was the 2 chairs one looked tired and worn. The other rocked and felt as if about to collapse. Can't comment on breakfast as didn't partake. On the whole a very good clean short stay hotel. Yes I would stay there again."

The Morritt Country House Hotel & The Garage Spa

8/10 Good

"Upon arrival the staff were very friendly & helpful. The room was clean and tidy, not too hot (which is unusual for a hotel room). Breakfast was good - full English. Once again the staff were excellent (wish I had taken names so I could mention them) & friendly. Would we go back? A resounding yes."
