더 해로게이트 힐 로지(The Harrowgate Hill Lodge)

Life lesson always read reviews! Wouldn’t give it 1 star if there was a choice. Yes it was cheap but it really wasn’t that great. Reception resembled a 1980,s American motel and about as welcoming as a funeral parlour, lift didn’t work, probably hasn’t worked since Noah was building his boat, luckily I was able to climb the stairs to the 3rd floor, room large, a triple for just me. Needed modernising or perhaps a dam good scub and a bottle or two of bleach. I don’t even think the Home Office would rent out such a place. Only one working light in my room, bed board screwed to the wall 🤔 what’s all that about, looks typical of an old school contractors hotel though they would even have standard these days. I could hear the guy in the next room chatting all night slightly annoying at 2 am could even hear him pee! Possibly has a UTI the amount of time he went. Not hot water in the shower reported to reception who said let it run I think after 20 mins how much more do you let it run so 2 cold showers even Wim Hof would have been proud of me. Tea and coffee provided but the long life caps of milk I think had past their life so black coffee the mild smelt off how is that possible? Breakfast wasn’t offered to be offered but think that was a lucky escape. Had a meal in the pub next door £4.20 for a pint of Cors, paid more for worse. Meal was edible just, but the pub was rougher than P40 sandpaper. Don’t think my standards are way too hight just a bit of cleanliness goes a long way. Thank god it was only one night l, I did look for another local hotel at 1am

Windows in rooms do not open so difficult to breathe. Rooms never cleaned so dirty sheets. Put me up top, lifts have not worked for years so had to drag heavy suitcases up 4 flights of stairs no help from staff. Roof leaking so they put towels in corridor to try and soak it up. Staff just stand around talking at reception doing nothing all the time apart from watching the tv screen in front of them.

No hot water in shower so had to be moved to another room that wasn’t as clean so a bit disappointed. Beds were comfortable and parking was easy.

Staff were polite & attentive. Property was shabby lift wasn’t working. Carpets threadbare. Cigarette burn marks on carpet. Bed was squeaky & uncomfortable.Room was dingy poor lighting.

Firstly we would use the Hotel Again. It was adequate and priced reasonably. Sadly during most of the night there was heavy traffic, which meant it was difficult to get to sleep.

Great hotel in terms of cleanliness and price. Location is great as a base for motorcycling around Northumberland and Durham areas. Great food next door. No breakfast facilities.

I'm going to leave an honest review that was mine and my partners personal experience here, let's start with this first it's £55 a night stat, so those who expect the Ritz you won't get it for this price. I stayed in room 110 the lift was broken when I attended but wasn't a big deal to be quite honest. Room amenities were exactly what I'd expect for £55 only downside was no hair dryer nor shampoo/shower gel but when I asked the receptionist he gave us some (friendly staff not like other reviews) The bed was comfortable pillow was good in fact I had a good night's sleep, room 110 is facing the busy main road so was noisy if you had both sliding windows open, with the outer open and the inside closed (still allowed fresh air in) was a good sleep. They have a fridge on site for you to store food and a toaster and microwave for your use next to the foyer. They sell pot noddles for you to eat and they have plastic forks if you need one. I was in a triple room even though I booked a double so it was nice. The internet is very below par and when on Facebook as an example it struggles to load videos and or pictures and reconnects alot. The room was clean That being said we will definitely be staying again.

What a sh*thole. I arrived at about 1450hrs on the 16th. Was given room 304 (top floor). Lift was out of order so as a disabled person it took me a while to get up the stairs. Room 304 was unlocked, there were dirty towels on the floor, empty bottles everywhere and the bed was still unmade. I complained and was (grudgingly) given another room. Website says that the pub next door serves breakfast ( it doesnt) and has a cashpoint (again, no). I wouldnt stay here again if I was paid to.

Well where can I start this is the worst s..t h..e I have ever stayed in skinks of s..t dirty towels with s..t stains on whole place smells of S..t dirty bathroom with human hair in bath dirty cups stay well away
