The Gala Room

Very well presented guesthouse with lots of character.
Close proximity to the centre of Durham City and beautiful views from the property. Tesla Wifi is a bonus.
I would highly recommend a stay here!

Made our wedding anniversary perfect.

Felt opulent and elegant.

Staff were polite, friendly, welcoming, and attentive to every need.

Room was beautiful and clean. Satellite Internet reliable. Bed was incredibly comfortable.

Molton Brown toiletries were heaven.

Excellent breakfast menu, all freshly prepared and absolutely delicious.

We’ll definitely be booking another stay.

superbly located quirky guesthouse( hotel), beautifully appointed bedroom and ensuite bathroom. The sitting room and breakfast room were similarly beautiful. The staff were excellent in every way from carrying our heavy bags to the top floor where our room overlooked the cathedral to getting an uber and negotiating the difficulties of the completely blocked one way road. Starlink Internet helped with watching netflix

Great room. Great view.

Perfect location, very close to the city centre and access to the cathedral via the beautiful Prebends Bridge. Room was lovely, stylish and very comfortable and plenty of space. After reading other reviews I expected it to be smaller! Breakfast was great with plenty of choice. We stayed 3 nights, would have happily spent a week there.

The hotel is beautiful and elegant. Everything is very clean. The cooked breakfast was quite nice. The hotel is located up a hill from the town center and overlooks a beautiful wild area toward the river. Be sure to take a walk along the river if you stay in Durham.

La camera era bellissima, con ottimi prodotti da bagno. La struttura è molto curata e arredata in modo elegante con parti comuni molto gradevoli in un ambiente raffinato. Il centro di Durham si raggiunge a piedi in pochi minuti e non è stato difficile parcheggiare nella strada dell’hotel.

Sensational View – Cool Design – Love the Honesty Bar – Entertaining Staff

First time I have had a drink with a humble, yet famous footballer.

Whisky in the room was a nice touch – Jelly Beans in the room were cool.

Love the Kimono Robes.

Definitely return to this “secret Sensation” in Durham
