Lock in a great price for The Kings Lodge Inn – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Location. The manager was helpful in trying to sort out our breakfast problem

Christopher, United Kingdom

Good central location. Very comfortable room with attractive decor.

Janet, United Kingdom

I loved the friendly and welcoming team. Loved the lodge and that it was slightly away from the centre but not too far. Loved all the trees surrounding the property (we went in the autumn). Really enjoyed snuggling up in the bar for a drink and eating in the restaurant - food was great! Breakfast was excellent with quite a bit of choice set out on a menu - we had eggs benedict! Really enjoyed our stay - the team couldn’t do enough 👍😊

Jane, United Kingdom

The staff are very friendly. The hotel is close to the centre of Durham and has free on site parking.

Judith, Isle of Man

Warm welcome. Helpful and informative staff. Large comfortable room. Breakfast was great - a range of options and well cooked. Would highly recommend

Yvonne, United Kingdom

Just been refurbished. Extremely clean. Restaurant a bonus. Often not good as add ons, but this was excellent

Diane, United Kingdom

It was a friendly hotel with a decent restaurant that wasn't overpriced and produced a substantial cooked breakfast in the morning. The staff were all very friendly and the place was very clean. If this is typical of the other hotels in the group, then they will definitely be our choice of places to stay when we next visit the north east and are in need of accommodation.

John, United Kingdom

I certainly would recommend this place, it was very clean and nicely decorated. All the staff were lovely, the food was excellent. The freshly cooked breakfast was worth waiting for. Will stay again if up in the area.

Stephanie, United Kingdom

Everything really, quality of the accomodation and decor were really high standard, the bedroom was excellent

Robert, United Kingdom

Quiet location but within walking distance to the city sights. Nice atmosphere in bar and restaurant.

Our room smelt of damp and I was unable to sleep as I had some sort of allergic reaction. We had to sleep with the windows open and even then the smell would not go away. The room was also very small. The next morning we tried to have our included breakfast. Despite asking a number of time for our cooked breakfast and being told it would be there soon after 40min we had to leave due to a meeting and had not yet being served. When I complained the manager said the chef had not arrived which I understand but then we should have been told that at the start. The manager tried to help and provided us with bacon butties. I will never stay here again and the only positive was the helpful manager

We were at hotel in the afternoon and heating in the rooms didn’t come on until a bit later but rooms relatively cosy even without this so not too much of an issue. Really enjoyed our stay - the team couldn’t do enough 👍😊

We liked everything about the hotel. Our very minor gripe was that our room's bathroom had a pull light switch in the ceiling above the centre of the door as you walked in, which meant it hit you on the head if you entered in the dark during the night. Otherwise everything was great.
