8/10 Good

A nice 2 night stay at the Delta Durham. Staff were friendly and eager to help. One small issue was that we were not made aware at check in that we had to opt in to having our room serviced and therefore this was not carried out after our first nights stay.

One particular male staff member quite assuming and condescending. When we asked re electric car charge points his response was ‘oh I wouldn’t get an electric car !’ . Extraordinary !

Lovely hotel in an excellent location. Staff are friendly and helpful, hotel was excellent and has some character. Just booked another trip to this hotel for my next visit.
Mark, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property is well located but extremely basic. The price doesn’t reflect this especially when compared to other similar hotels in the area. Check-in was late and at 3:30 I was still waiting for my room.
