Delta Hotels by Marriott Newcastle Gateshead

Delta Hotels by Marriott Newcastle Gateshead

8/10 Good
"Hotel staff were great. I used the gym and pool facilities on this occasion. Gym was large and had an additional small gym room too. Sauna. Jacuzzi and pool were great. However the steam room was not working. Rooms are clean and breakfast has a great variety. Coffee machines had minimal items available which was a shame."

Grey Street Hotel

Grey Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The customer service from all hotel staff was fantastic! Everyone was so friendly, polite, and extremely helpful. Deluxe twin room was large and spacious, however the bathroom was looking tired and in need of a refresh. Brilliant location in the city centre - everywhere was in walking distance. Would definitely stay there again."
