1. Doxford Hall Hotel and Spa
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2318 reviews
Built in 1818, our much-loved country house, the epitome of Georgian splendour, has been lovingly restored over the years, including a wealth of exquisite craftsmanship, including fine wood panelling and a grand handmade staircase. Old stone fireplaces, classic leather armchairs, elegant sitting rooms, grandfather clocks – the sense of a grand but homely residence pervades. Conveniently accessible from the A1 and as Northumberland’s only four AA red star awarded hotel, in recent years it’s become very much a destination in its own right. We have 36 handsomely appointed bedrooms, elegant lounges and a fabulous spa, swimming pool and gym, making Doxford the ideal place to unwind after exploring the delights of Northumbria. Add to this the award-winning dining in our George Runciman restaurant, the yew maze and acres of landscaped gardens to explore and everything’s in place for a relaxing and memorable stay.

Not so good
Reviewed By love23355Positives first: beautiful refurbished restaurant, looking very good. Really lovely staff. Nice atmosphere. Areas for improvement : very slow service for breakfast despite it being very quiet. Hot drinks brought straight away but as the breakfast items took 40 minutes, the drinks are cold when the food comes. Poached eggs on toast tasted strongly of lemon so I was unable to eat them. Replaced with scrambled eggs on toast. Eggs full of liquid put on top of dry toast, bread made mushy from the water and cant be buttered. Previous poached eggs the same, water from the eggs making the toast wet, very unappealing. Unfortunately this occasion was a poor show and therefore I wouldn't return there for breakfast. Sorry hopefully a one off but I think a little thought / care on how to serve food really goes a long way.

4. The White Swan Hotel
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 1422 reviews
Set in the heart of the historic market town of Alnwick and only a stone's throw from Alnwick Castle and Gardens, The White Swan is a charming 300 year old coaching inn that blends its unique heritage with superb accommodation.For generations one of the North of England's primary hotels, The White Swan is probably best known for its Olympic Dining Suite which features the magnificent panelling, mirrors and stained glass windows from the Titanic's sister ship. All 57 bedrooms are designed to an impeccable standard, and Hardy's Bistro, our contemporary, informal dining experience, is open all day for coffee, light lunches and an excellent bistro menu.The perfect stopover en route to Scotland, we're also your base for discovering the famous gardens at Alnwick Castle, and a tour of the very best of the North East with its unspoilt coastline, historic castles and Holy Island, Northumberland National Park and the exciting cities of Durham and Newcastle. Then return to the hotel for a traditional afternoon tea in front of the fire.
2 star hotel with a 4 star dining room
Reviewed By steviec1211This hotel is in need of some TLC. The public areas are ok but the rooms are in need of major refurbishment. Lack of maintenance is apparent with plumbing issues, lights not working and mould in bathrooms. There is a superb dining room with wood panelling from the Olympus ship. They seem to exist on tour groups and are rigid with rules on when you have to be down for breakfast or dinner. They also seem to be permanently short staffed although the few that are there are helpful and hard working. Food is ok but does not do the room justice. Overall disappointing and not worth the price charged.

Little break away
Reviewed By Arobbo12My husband and I had an overnight stay in the Lookout. The non contact check in was very easy and passing by staff were extremely helpful. The room itself was absolutely beautiful, couldn’t fault it. The bed was very comfy! Despite the building work happening outside we couldn’t hear a thing. The breakfast staff were fab and very happy to help with dietary requirements. Couldn’t fault the breakfast. Can’t wait to come back and stay!

James Bond experience at the Bondgate!
Reviewed By holidayheadtravellerExcellent experience here, v little to criticise. I felt safe, it was quiet,I was really comfortable, slept brilliantly, immaculately clean. Everything I needed including chocs and toffees :-) Theparking is not for the faint hearted! There are 2 ways in - one through the archway next to the Plough or a little further day there is a narrow entrance which has quite a narrow corner, but is manageable - just ! But there are plenty of other Carparks if you are not feeling brave !

A most welcoming host
Reviewed By Katherine LDarren played the perfect host for the whole of our stay. His jovial, relaxed and lighthearted manner made it an extremely plesant stay. The rooms were all very clean, tidy and well maintained. The included breakfast was comprehensive and Darren made sure there was everything we needed - a full English, cereals, fruit, yoghurt, etc. The location was a short walk from the centre. This b&b in the lovely Alnwick is thoroughly recommended.
8. The Whittling House

What’s not to like?
Reviewed By BVMumThis was our first stay at Whittling House but we will certainly go again. Alnmouth is such a beautiful place, and the hotel is on Northumberland Street - you could hardly get a more central location. The staff are really friendly and efficient, and the food excellent. We didn’t realise how popular the restaurant was, as we stayed on a Sunday night, but they managed to get us a table despite being fully booked. We had our dog with us and she was made very welcome. We had Room 2, at the top of the house, which had its own sitting room and was very clean and well-equipped with tea and coffee plus home made biscuits.

Backpackers of a certain age
Reviewed By DCairns2014We were walking along the northeast coast for 4 days starting off in Alnwick and Embleton was our first overnight stay. The Bluebell Inn is a lovely little hotel run by the amazing Anna who couldn't do enough for us during our stay. The continental breakfast the next morning would put some big hotels to shame with the choice available as would the delicious evening meal the night before. A very friendly hotel which we will definitely be returning to soon.

A lovely few days stay
Reviewed By mazzie44My partner and I have just returned from a 3 night stay. Check in was easy and the door codes were sent out before hand via email. The room was comfortable and we slept well. The owners left an information book in the drawer about places to visit and where we could eat breakfast in the mornings. The biscuits and chocolates that were left in the room were a lovely touch. We would definitely return here again.
