Majatalot – Morpeth

”An excellent small hotel. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable room. Delicious breakfast cooked to order. Very good location, short walk to the beach and town centre. Would definitely recommend.”

”Excellent”

”There was a large party downstairs (floor below) on the Saturday night we stayed there. Music from DJ was very loud and pounding/felt in our room until after midnight preventing sleep. The Restaurant was unavailable due to the party. I wouldn’t recommend booking a room on this property when the downstairs facilities are booked in this way.”

”This is an institution but honestly I'd rather have a drink here and sleep elsewhere. The staff were very kind and helpful. It was mainly that because of the awesome pub it is noisy until pretty late. More from people on the street going in an out than the pub itself. It was pretty warm so I needed to leave the window open for some air. It is in the middle of town and safe and clean though, only the partiers were a problem but I was there on a Friday night.”

”Lovely b&b! Had big rooms and excellent shower. Ten minutes walk from the station and five from the centre. Friendly hosts with out being overbearing. Would absolutely go back. Only consideration: there was nowhere to leave bags after checkout.”

”A good option for a family visiting Durham University or, as we did, attending a graduation ceremony. Only a 20-minute drive from the centre of Durham, but cheaper than staying centrally in Durham. Friendly staff, good full English breakfast. We had a room that slept 4 people, which looked relatively recently renovated with ensuite shower and toilet. Shower was good.”

”Perfect for what I needed, but the pub is a bit tired. That said food was okay and rooms where clean.”

”Excellent value, a very comfortable and pleasant stay. The hotel is in close proximity to a number of shops, restaurants and bars so you don’t need to go far if you don’t want to. Thanks to all.”

”Very disappointing. The room, which was not cheap, was suffocatingly hot and had no windows. There was a cheap portable air conditioning unit, propped up on a chair which did not work and the shower was not usable as it was scalding hot on every setting. The manager was unhelpful and dismissive.”
