Coquetvale Hotel  

We used the hotel as a half way stop on our journey up to Scotland. We arrived quite late & had missed last orders for food, but a very pleasant & helpful reception member offered us a room service choice, we had pizza which was the best pizza ever! We had a loft room which was beautiful & felt like a very romantic little hide away with a fantastic view, the mini bar was well stocked & very fair prices.Breakfast was delicious. It was a perfect start to our holiday & we would love to return for a weekend & explore the area more. I am not usually a huge fan of hotel stays, but this one is first class & I would highly recommend it.

Stylish comfortable room. Superb breakfasts served by smart and friendly staff. Excellent, stylish Italian-style restaurant/bar with great menu choice.(the 'early bird' serving from 5 - 6.30 pm meant one could have a very reasonably priced full meal)

The look of the front of the hotel from the car park and the stair carpet up to the rest of the hotel did not present the hotel in its best light. Once inside it was wonderful!

Delightfully clean attractive hotel which, at the time of our stay, was undergoing some refurbishment. The new loft rooms are extremely comfortable in this lovely building. We experienced personal service from the accommodating and obliging owner; definitely 10 out of 10 for the friendly and helpful attitude of all the staff. We enjoyed superb food served in the very pleasant restaurant with extensive choice and efficient service. Many reasons to return!

The location of rothbury is idyllic. The restaurant is fantastic serving first class food in a beautiful setting. If you want a fine dining experience then you won't be disappointed. The room we stayed in was luxurious and one of the best I have ever stayed in. How the coquetvale is only a three star establishment is beyond me.

The location was lovely, the style of the hotel suited us and the warm welcome from staff helped to make this first visit really enjoyable. Excellent value.

The staff were extremely friendly and the hotel was pleasently warm. Size of Bedroom was very good with comfortable sofa. Breakfast was tasty but slightly sparse. Pretty village, even in the winter.

The restaurant and bar were both closed - it was a Monday but we were not informed before we arrived. We then had to treck out into Rothbury to find somewhere to eat. The twin beds were tired and therefore uncomfortable and in the bathroom the shower was good looking but nothing more than a dribble could be extracted. In contrast the air bath was very good.

Friendly owner and staff. Breakfast was excellent. Excellent food in the restaurant. Rooms was lovely and clean.

The staff were friendly and helpful. Everyone was very welcoming. The room was huge and toasty warm. The bathroom with jacuzzi bath was also enormous and well appointed. The meal in the 'Italien' attached to the hotel was amazing!

The hotel provided a very friendly environment. The staff were first class and the restaurant Italia + offered food of the highest standard. Nothing was ever too much trouble for any of the staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The only "fault" that we could find was that there was very limited sitting to be had in order to have a drink before dinner or indeed to relax afterwards.

Very nice Hotel, will definetly stay there again as it is close to relatives and also handy for getting into Newcastle to do some shopping. The food was excellent and the room was clean . The staff lovely.

The only thing that was a problem is no lift so my 82 year old mum found it hard climing stairs.

Helpful staff, good sized clean room, superb Italian restaurant.

Warm welcome in very cosy hotel room. Excellent breakfast and general facilities

Not wishing to be too nit-picking but, personally I found the shower enclosure in our room converted from the roof space rather neat with very little space to enter and to manoeuvre within. A grab-rail would also have been useful. There was also no heating in the large shower room which contrasted from the cosiness of the bedroom.

Extremely friendly staff. Amazing food! Would definitley visit again!
