Room was spacious and clean. The staff was friendly and courteous. They kept us informed when they were having work done and the water would be turned off allowing us to properly plan our day. I loved the breakfast in the mornings, were able to select what time we wanted to have it served in the dining area downstairs. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our stay and will be recommending this inn to our friends. Easy to get to city centre from here, bus stop located directly across the street. Petrol station located up the main road about half mile. I stopped by the morning of check in and the staff were able to hold on to my suitcase prior to check in which was a plus. Check in was a breeze and paid for our stay at the bar.

FAQs about hotels in Durham

Sacred English Heritage

Durham could definitely be one of those towns that appear in fairy tales and stories of kings and knights. Lying on a hilled peninsula formed by the Wear River, the striking cathedral overlooks from the hilltop, surrounded by the castle, palaces and historic buildings. Get transported back in time by the magic of this English jewel, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Though archaeological evidence suggests the area has been inhabited since 2000 BC, the present-day settlement was founded by monks from Lindisfarne in 995, choosing the area as the final resting place of Saint Cuthbert. Symeon of Durham stated once that ‘to see Durham is to see the English Zion, and by doing so one may save oneself a trip to Jerusalem’. Hotels and B&Bs in Durham’s historic centre are a popular choice to enjoy this historic legacy.

Its powerful religious position granted such great honour to the city, that the bishop still holds the rights to a seat in the House of Lords, and to accompany the sovereign at the coronation. During the 19th century and encompassing the industrial revolution, the university was founded, with Durham Castle becoming its first college.

Whether you’re searching for a cottage, a modern hotel, or a cheap hostel, Booking.com offers a wide range of accommodation in the area.

WE loved our visit to Durham, it is a very compact city to spend time wandering through. The history of the city is intriguing and the cathedral is most impressive. The shrine of St Cuthbert is a most peaceful spot to spend time contemplating and to visit it was the objective of our visit, so we were not disappointed. We organised a walking tour of the city with a local guide which was very worthwhile and entertaining. We could certainly have stayed a bit longer. We enjoyed a very special evening at Crush wine bar where Daniel helped us choose a flight of wine and we shared grazing platters to help the whole lot down. We also spent an evening at a performance by Durham Dramatic Society at the City Theatre, which was most diverting.

The cathedral was the highlight with the tour by Mike proving very entertaining and enlightening. Crook Hall gardens were near our hotel and we enjoyed going through all the ups and downs of the different little areas with interesting trees, bushes and plants some of which still had a few flowers despite it being November.

Durham is a gem of a place with beautiful stone buildings and lots of woodland and riverside walks ; a market hall, cobbled streets , picturesque streets and a knockout cathedral . The bus service is excellent and the city is very walkable with paths, bridges and pedestrian areas. Friendly atmosphere , international and diverse cuisine , plenty of cafes , many dog-friendly . The river is live and has wildlife right into the city - cormorants and kingfishers for example. Recommended .

Beautiful City. However. Unless you are really into art and light installations AVOID going during any possible future Lumiere festivals. City is way over crowded. Difficult to book tables. Pricey.

Loved Durham we have been before there’s plenty to see and do , plenty of lovely eateries and also some individual shops selling local crafts. We loved the old market which is still thriving unlike many towns these days there’s a lovely cafe in there too. We had a return visit to Beamish which us a place we love and the people are so friendly and helpful.

Oh my goodness, the Hideaway was really lovely! It was beautifully furnished and located in the perfect spot to explore Durham. Just a stone’s throw away from the city centre, it was super convenient. Everything was thought out to perfection, and the coffee machine and wine were a real treat. The hosts, Jo and Chris, were so helpful and gave us the best recommendations for sightseeing and restaurants. I can’t recommend the Hideaway enough!

Great location to Durham city centre with free parking. We were served an excellent cooked breakfast and there was a lot of choice from cereal, yogurt and fruit along with the cooked options too. Staff really friendly and room a good size. Lovely 15 min walk into the centre of Durham which we enjoyed to get our daily steps in. Durham is o a stunning centre. Historic with well preserved buildings. Would definitely stay here again!

It was a great room for my daughter and me to stay for a night before visiting Durham University for the open day. The staff was lovely, helpful, and very welcoming. There is a cafe and food at the hotel, but also McDonald's as an option, within walking distance from the hotel (2 min). It is near the main road but very quiet and relaxing.
