"Had a very comfortable stay. Beds really comfy. Staff really good especially Fiona she was very helpful. One little thing shower was too cold and also could do with recycling bins . It was lovely and clean . Have stayed before and would definitely stay again. Durham a lovely city. "
"Spent a wonderful couple of days at 40 winks hotel. Room was very comfortable, great location for walking around Durham.
Breakfast was excellent, freshly cooked and served hot. Will definitely return. All staff very friendly and welcoming."
"Friendly efficient local staff. Excellent breakfast and restaurant food especially the daily specials. Housekeeping excellent. Rooms functional but a bit dated.Parking directly outside courtyard rooms is a bonus for any disabled visitors and access to the main entrance is easy.
The city of Durham ,Beamish Museum and The Auckland Project are all within less than half an hour’s drive. Although just off a busy road the courtyard rooms are quiet with a rural view at the rear . I would use this hotel again. "
"We arrived late so unfortunately didn’t get to experience the food but the bar and restaurant was lovely and we only wish we could have spent more time here.
The decor is amazing.
Rooms were large and comfortable and had everything we needed.
Breakfast was amazing and the staff were very helpful."
"This is a hotel with real character. Built as a civic building in 1905, the hotel owner totally renovated the guest rooms but retained the beautiful interiors along the corridors, in the restaurant, etc. In the guest rooms, there is a rarity -- lots of electrical outlets! Also, as this building was built solid, guest rooms are quiet -- you hear nothing from the next room. All the staff (check in, restaurant, cleaners) were very helpful and pleasant. I would stay here again. "
"Beautiful hotel and fabulous surrounding gardens. Excellent food and service in the stables. Very large car park and less than a mile from the Beamish museum. Would definitely stay here again."
