Village Hotel Newcastle in North Tyneside

A buzzing hotel that serves the local population as a fitness centre. Lovely friendly people working there but, overall, I couldn't recommend the stay. The room walls must be made of paper. You'll hear the exercise classes coming from below and your neighbours below/beside/above walking around, snoring, having a shower, etc. There's no plug socket next to the bed. Dinner in the Bar & Grill restaurant was very average. Insanely quick service, which had us wondering if things were premade. Breakfast buffet again average. Soggy potatoes, processed scrambled eggs, plus some other warm items, boxed cereal, toast, croissant, bit of fruit. Fine If having to stay here, I'd recommend trying to get a room on the top floor. Bring ear plugs.

Our stay was nice but all I can say is if your using this hotel as a quiet getaway rethink it! We where on the first floor above the pool, we where woken up by the sound of what I think would be the music for the water Aerobics. Cleaners hovering at 8:30 at night (at least that’s what it sounded like) or could have been mistaken for someone’s hairdryer - could hear absolutely everything going on from upstairs and the corridor. Food was nice but please reconsider if you’re wanting a quiet stay. It won’t be this, and actually became so stressed because of the noise.

Recently had a Xmas party here. I wanted to mention the absolutely impeccable service from the young waiting staff - spot on

Went to a christmas party with friends good value for money in pleasant surroundings

Beautiful easy accessed hotel with all the needed facilities. A lovely stay

All you can ask for in a business hotel

Only Let down by poor food and expencive drinks...

Always a great place to stay. The rooms are spacious with plenty of hanging space. drawers & if you need to work there is a desk with sockets & USB points. The walk in shower is lovely with complimentary toiletries. Donna in housekeeping is always helpful and ready to supply extra tea/coffee/milk if needed. Breakfast is plentiful and always hot and replenished regularly. Hannah Katy Kath and all the other girls are 100% on the ball clearing tables tidying up. Great selection of everything including all kinds of tea, yogurt, fruit, cereal, pastries, cooked items juices & water. I asked at the bar & they filled my water bottle to take away. Reception girls run an efficient and friendly front desk. Hayley was lovely as were the other girls who I didn’t get their names. Check in/check out very easy. Thank you

We had a party there, great night, expensive drinks, ok food

Popped in to meet friends for a drink. Easy to park good service, drinks a little expensive

I was here on a few occasions and I also used the gym. Everyone is professional and friendly. I can recommend it to anyone. Thx guys!

Great location. Central to both the coast and the city! Great rooms and service. Pool and leisure facilities are clean and well maintained. The pub and grill attached are brilliant. Food is always quick and very tasty! King of protein poke bowl is incredible!

I'll definitely come back again

don't really cater for women, makeup and mirror for hair dryer use, some room have limited seating. Food and wines are very expensive, Breakfast are very good great choice. Staff very friendly and supportive.

Perfectly acceptable. Room was clean and tidy. Breakfast was a bit average but to be honest, for the total price I wasn't expecting Michelin stars. Perfectly ok. Definitely stay again

Apart from the man knocking on our door at 11.30 at night and asking to use our toilet it was a very nice stay

The staff at this hotel are in the top tier of how hospitality staff should be, pleasant and very helpful. Breakfast was great as was the room. A decent overnight stay 👌

I stayed two nights with work. It has everything you need, including a food bar and football. You can use the gym and swimming pool. An old railway line next to the road is a good place to go jogging.

Food is nothing special. Ask for a change in the menu and you are ignored. Asked for gravy with my mixed grill and was refused. Drunken argument in bar was observed and not dealt with by staff. Disappointed in the attitude

Fantastic overnight stay, booked at last minute, staff brilliant rooms, breakfast and drinks excellent

Lovely hotel people are nice food is a bit expensive but overall good hotel to stay at

Had a good 1 night stay, our room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was good with lots of choice, good location for visiting Whitley Bay and Newcastle.

Stayed for a friend's wedding reception. Very enjoyable stay, friendly helpful staff, great amenities and good comfortable clean rooms Excellent 👍

I met up with a friend here. We had lost touch, so now this place holds great memories for me

If you like living in an actual night club, don't stay here. Music from the classes in the gym can be heard even from the second floor. Rooms are very dated. My heater doesn't work so I moved rooms, then two wall socket plugs don't work. Bathroom is very old and dated, and my toilet makes a horrible loud noise every 30 minutes. I can hear literally everything going on in the room next to me and if someone is in their room above me, I can hear the floor boards creaking loudly. The only good thing about this place is the convenience of a gym and a pool.

Each village hotel is very similar , helpful staff and plenty of amenities.

Rooms ok but dusty, dirty sock left from a past guest, 2 towels sets for 3 guest! very limited on plugs and not all of them could be used, beds uncomfortable and sofa bed was more than shocking, shower dripped constantly. Nice bath though. Drinks over priced and food is over priced wetherspoons food, the treadmill where you make toast is the perfect height if you are 8ft. Reception staff were ok and house keeping assisted with an issue we had within the hour. Bar staff were nice 1 girl was spot on working Friday night (didnt get her name but spoke about cider) need more like her. I done you a favour by not taking the rooms treasure box so please send the sofa to the skip it's the only place it needs to be.

Perfect for work. Good WiFi, good breakfast and the pool and gym are great

Booked into here with daughter for shared mother's day treat. Loved it very clean very busy. First contact booking in . Managed to use machines for booking. Found it very busy due to abba night. We couldn't get a table until 7pm which since we arrived at 5pm we were starving. Very dissatisfied and disappointed with portions of food. We both ordered mixed grill for price expected more than what we got. Meats were minute very unfilling. Very expensive in bar/grill. Drinks we felt more ice and lemonade took taste away from actual drink. But I suppose if we visit again ice won't be added. Overall experience enjoyable but expensive for food. Not wheelchair friendly lots of steps upto main entrance. Parking free on weekend but during week parking charges apply. Ample parking. Situated on cobalt you really can't miss it. A sambuca restaurant 1/4mile up from hotel if needing a feast for less money .

A modern and thriving Hotel with Gym, pool, sauna, steam room, restaurant and American style bar with multiple large screen televisions and all the sport channels available. Rooms are comfy with a large bed, bath / shower, television and kettle. A huge positive are the staff who were friendly, professional and accommodating. They are a real asset. Restaurant offers hot and cold breakfast and a good bar menu with the food being plentiful and tasty.

Great stay, friendly staff. Double room was a good size with comfortable bed. Dinner at night was good, full English breakfast tasty. Bus stop opposite hotel, but we used Metro station which was 20min walk away, about £5.45 for adult ticket for 24hrs. Used metro to get to Newcastle, Whitley Bay etc

Very good venue for competitions

Arrived to a grand fronted Hotel. Very nice. We were allowed to drop our bags in early. Kind receptionist locked them away in secure room. Finally came to check in, retrieved our bags. Got to the room. Walked in, nice thick carpet. Room was well laid out, very tidy. I was glad to see an iron/ironing board as I had packed a small cabin suitcase. Anyway, bed was comfy, bathroom clean and TV worked. Result. Downstairs restaurant - sadly didn't use this for evening meal (went out with friends to a local restaurant) but I did come down for breakfast. Greeted by pleasant lady, checked I was okay to eat. Advised of drinks/food locations and left to it. Decent selection for hot food (scrambled eggs were suspect/wet), pastries, cereal, porridge, fruit, fruit juices. I had sausages, potato slices, egg, mushroom and beans. Very nice. Will stay here again

I can only comment on the gym and pool at the hotel. It's free for guests, but there is a subscription for regular members. Gym is adequate, gets busy and difficult during busy hours. The pool and sauna are what make this facility worth while.
