Hotels with Bars in Newcastle upon Tyne

Dakota Newcastle is an exceptional hotel that delivers a truly memorable experience. From the moment we arrived, everything felt refined, stylish, and thoughtfully designed. The hotel’s interior is elegant and modern, creating a calm yet sophisticated atmosphere. The rooms are beautifully finished, extremely comfortable, and spotlessly clean, making it easy to relax and feel at home. What really stood out was the service — the staff were professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming throughout our stay. Every interaction felt effortless and well cared for. With its excellent location, high-quality amenities, and outstanding hospitality, Dakota Newcastle is a hotel we absolutely loved and would highly recommend. We would gladly return again in the future.

The hotel is a bit out of the way, and while the surroundings are very quiet, it felt a little unsafe to go out after dark. It was a pleasant surprise that the front desk staff had their own translation device, and the restaurant even offered hot water, showing the hotel's inclusivity and genuine hospitality towards guests from all over the world. The room was spacious and well-equipped, and parking was convenient.

Hotel room nice, good view of the river.. staff really helpful. Very disappointed with the breakfast.. Hard black pudding Hard hash browns Just warm sausage Luke warm beans Didn’t try anything else Toast nice and tea nice. But would book with out breakfast if I stopped again.

The room wasn't clean. I checked in early as an IHG member benefit at noon, but there was dust on the counter, hair on the bed, and even someone else's underwear behind the curtains!?! I had to inspect and clean it myself. The bed and pillows are very soft, which might depend on personal preference. The breakfast was excellent, with a good selection of continental options. The location is superb, only about a five to six-minute walk from the train station.

Room was very tired. This use to be a lovely hotel but now, from our recent experience, it’s very much fur coat and no knickers. Lovely reception bar and dinning areas but our room was definitely not what Hilton use to stand for. Our room was very very tired. The wood work was all chipped and looking shabby, the pleather head board had numerous bare/worn areas and there was mould in the bathroom. Not sure if all rooms have these issues our just the ones you get if booked through trip.com.

The location is excellent, directly opposite Newcastle train station. The day before, I stayed at the Hampton next door. The price increased significantly the next day, so I moved to this one, which had a stable price. However, it was really bad, and I advise my fellow countrymen to be cautious about staying here. The room itself matched the merchant's photos. The bathroom was generally spacious, but there was a significant waste of space. It shouldn't have been designed like this after a renovation. I've never seen such a ridiculously designed sink; the faucet is too close to the basin, so simply washing your hands causes water to spill all over the floor. There's also no floor drain in the bathroom, so we had to cover the entire floor with towels. Also, a £50 deposit is required upon check-in, authorized via credit card. Other hotels usually release it immediately upon checkout. I specifically asked when checking out, and they said it would take 'a few days.' I don't understand why. I waited a week and it still wasn't refunded. After Ctrip customer service intervened, it was immediately refunded. Truly outrageous. Personally, I think as long as the Hampton by Hilton next door isn't more than 50% more expensive, I'd still recommend staying at the Hampton. It has better facilities, includes breakfast, and the service is better. Don't come here to be annoyed.

Location was excellent, next to the train station. The cosy room would definitely not be my choice again. Ok if travelling on your own, but as a couple not ideal. Breakfast was the best I have ever experienced. Staff all friendly. Will definitely want to stay in this hotel if I ever went to Newcastle again.

Everything was as expected except for clenness - the cups and spoons were not cleaned, there were stains of coffe or tea from the previous stay, we washed them. The most terrible part was bathroom: - there was a stainfull unwashed towel on the bathroom floor as we entered the room but even worse was the shower cabin. It was all slippery from the previous person’s shower and lots of short shaved hairs - all in all, the room was ok but the bathroom was absolutely disgusting. One more thing to mention would be a lot of noises from other guests which explains the poor sound-proofing of rooms.

Lovely hotel in excellent location. However, when got back to our room in the evening, there was a loud disco going on above us, from the brochure of the hotel it was indicated this would end at midnight. We still heard it at 2am . We also tried to order room service and got no answer on phone. Finally, we were woken at 8am Sunday morning by what sounded like cleaners moving all the furniture and scrapping the floor. We mentioned it on checking out, and although the staff apologised, it did not sound very sincere. Would be reluctant to return .

Though not in the immediate city center, getting around is easy with Jesmond Station nearby and a bus stop directly in front. It's situated in a residential area, offering convenient access to pubs and supermarkets. The room was spacious and impeccably clean, and the bedding was spotless.
