The Bewick Hotel  

Very friendly staff, the perfect place to stop for a show at the Sage live music venue in gateshead 10 mins walk ,The breakfast was very good and the room was clean 15/20 mins walk to newcastle city centre.

Satisfactory

I had to ring and book an extra night and the staff were very efficient and helpful. Very relaxed environment. Very convenient 20min walk to the Sage.

On arrival I was disappointed to find that the headboard of the lovely leather effect bed was very dusty as were the beside shelves. I was also a bit disappointed by the state of the towels although they were fine once replaced.

Every employee we met was very polite and friendly. Our room had a little table top fridge and the rooms were cleaned every day. The hotel is ideally situated for Newcastle with the metro station only ten minutes away. Although the hotel is close to several schools and religious establishments, they are quiet and the bed was the most comfortable I've slept in at this price range.

The only thing we could say that is negative about the Bewick Hotel is the water. The pressure on the shower was very poor and to get it lukewarm it had to be run for at least ten minutes. However we never reported it to the staff so I can't comment on their response.

staff were helpful. breakfast good.walking distance of town.

no chair to sit on in room

Very cheap for an ensuite b&b room. Clean, modern bathroom. Easy to book through booking.com. Within 1 mile (walking distance) from The Sage / Newcastle Quayside.

Whole place is very dated. Staff are unfriendly and miserable. Reception area smelling of stale cigarette smoke. Cooked breakfast provided but they use the cheapest/nastiest possible ingredients. Bathroom clean but strong smell from drains. Very poor hot water pressure - took a long time to get the shower hot, and the jet was feeble. In future I would pay a little more and book Premier Inn.

the friendlyness of the owners and the location to city center

Clean and tidy. Not too far from cith centre.

Staff a little standoffish.

Room was newly decorated. Also new large bathroom with hot powerful shower and heated towel rail. Flat screen TV plus small fridge Usual tea and coffeee.The room (No1) was a decent size even though it was in the roof, excellent views over to Newcastle. In a pleasant residential area 30 mins walk from Newcastle train station. Plenty cereals to choose from for breakfast as well as a cooked one and toast, fresh coffee in a large dining room. Friendly helpful staff. We asked to book in early and our room was ready.

There were no chest of drawers or wardrobe,only a shelf rack with coat hooks and a narrow cupboard with a decent mirror door. There were bedside units and a small table but no where to put clothes if you were staying longer. I wondered if they were still furnishing the room as it did look newly done.

Staff were very friendly, the shower room was spotless and the price was low but the room and decor were very dated. If cost is an issue it might be a reasonable option.

The decor was a bit past it's best

Very pleasant and easygoing staff, helpful and friendly - quick and easy check in, convenient location, easy parking

shower didn't work

Big TV, nice and warm, breakfast very nice, good choice, friendly staff. Family run business so nice personal service. Was upgraded to a family room as no doubles available, gave me the choice of room.

Door handle/lock seemed a bit loose - perhaps fix these for added security.
