Grand Hotel Gosforth Park Newcastle, The Grandstand Suite

Good sized rooms, windows partially open and detachable shower heads. Dog friendly with decent walks on site and others relatively close. Food is tasty, particularly the burger, and breakfast is decent. Bar prices are reasonable for a hotel. A good example of the type raised above the average by the staff who were unfailingly friendly and helpful.

Stayed here for a few nights on business. The hotel seems ok, looks a little tired in some areas. The receptionists were polite. The food was lovely. The room was big and looked clean until you see some bits and pieces, the duvet sheet had a stain and the furniture was just a bit dusty. Also had room service and you pay £3 per tray. Seems to have ample parking space. It’s a few minutes walk to the Newcastle Racecourse. I saw it has a functional gym which I didn’t get to use and a swimming pool so can’t say much on that. Would say it’s nice but I don’t see myself voluntarily coming back here. Overall, okay experience.

Our stay was on a coach tour. Out of town hotel,but public transport stopped outside frequently.The rooms warm,beds comfy. Down side, no proper vanity mirror for doing makeup/hair. Meals nice even if restaurant was a bit cold.
