Quirky hotel with an interesting story in the centre of Alnwick. The staff are all lovely and make the customer feel very welcome. Check-in and out is straightforward. The Harry Potter themed rooms are very comfortable and quiet. Super clean bathroom with a great shower and nice toiletries. Great breakfast including full English or continental options. No parking facilities at the hotel but plenty of free 24hrs public car parks within a few minutes’ walk. Would highly recommend!

Great historic property—awesome location

The hotel is in a fantastic location for the castle and surrounding beautiful town. I had tried to get in touch with the hotel to confirm we had breakfast but got no reply and couldn't get much sense out of anyone when I rang either. When we arrived, we were early but had intended on getting food in the restaurant. The staff were particularly uninterested and unhelpful and save for 1 older man walking around were rather rude. We were shown to our room where it was suggested we were room only, The lad who showed us to our room said he'd check, still waiting for someone to come back to me! The room itself was large, unusually shaped, but decorated like a room from Harry Potter. Was quirky and nice. The bed was ok, but the pull out beds for the kids were extremely uncomfortable. The bathroom on first glance was lovely. Beautiful bath which the kids enjoyed and a lovely looking shower. However I'm 5 ft 9 (and a half) and there must have been 2 inches maximum between the top of my head and the shower head. Had I been blessed with longer legs I would have not been able to use it! As the meal in the restaurant was rather poor, I'm fairly sure they were aunt Bessie Yorkshire puddings and roasties, I didn't put up any more of a fight on the breakfast front and we left getting breakfast elsewhere. Great location, different type of hotel, but I wouldn't return, particularly at the price of the room. Extremely disappointed to be totally honest. Wish we had just came home!

Great room and nice friendly staff. Lovely breakfast. Would stay here again.

All good.

Great location for Alnwick Castle, Gardens and bang in the centre of town. Do research on parking, in travelling by car.

If you like Harry Potter, then you’ll like the accommodation, as there is a strong Harry Potter theme running throughout. That said, the cleanliness of the room occupied was at best ok while shelf space was extremely limited. Breakfast was a two-part affair, split between a cold buffet and a limited selection of hot food from the breakfast menu. The buffet was poorly provisioned when it comes to the likes of pastries, fresh fruit and yogurts with such items either lacking in variety or quantity, or absent, pending delivery.

I loved staying here! It's a really interesting building and is very close to the castle. The staff were fab. Highly recommend.

Just spent a weekend away at the dirty bottles with our friends, lovely clean room, pleasant staff and good food, location very good for the castle and town centre. 30-40 minutes away from Lindisfarne. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Would stay here again.

Great stay. Breakfast options good incl GF choice.

This hotel is perfectly located to visit Alnwich Castle, gardens, Lilidorei park and the town. It is clean. The room we had is beautifully decorated, spacious and clean. Breakfast was excellent, staff friendly and helpful. We definitely recommend and hope to come back soon.

A thoroughly enjoyable stay. We were in room 3 which had a challenging set of stairs, no lift due to nature of the historic building. Very atmospheric place bang in the middle of the town great access on foot to all amenities. A 10 minute stroll to the Castle and the excellent car park. Breakfast was first class value. The room was spacious excellent shower and roll top bath. Bar facilities very good small outside beer garden. Plenty of Sky Ports TV screens in the bar, Saturday night there is a disco in the bar. Not for us but it did not bother us. All round brilliant place.

Had a three night stay. Quirky Harry Potter themed room. The staff were very friendly and efficient. Had to report to the manager that the shower wasn’t working and he immediately went up to the room and simply turned it on. How embarrassing …. and me an engineer too. Ate in the hotel first night. Food was very good and comparatively inexpensive. Nicely cooked breakfasts as well. Good choice of beer. First time in Alnwick. Would go again. Plenty of places to eat and drink. Loved Harry’s bar which was just a few yards from the hotel.

Lovely place, not the usual Greene Kings .our room was entirely unique piece and we loved it. Room was super clean and comfy bed. Staff were just lovely whelp make this a great place to stay. We didn’t eat but the food we saw looked good.

Amazing stay! Very nice staff, beautiful interior inside and outside of the room, and the food is very good. Cannot recommend enough.

Good spot to explore

Very quirky. Large room and bathroom and great atmosphere in the bar

God seng og stort fint rom. Hyggelig betjening og god mat.

Location is great with lots of free parking options nearby including EV chargers. The room and bathroom were spacious, clean and warm. On the downside was the fact that our room was just above the pub and on Saturday night was very loud until midnight and we couldn’t sleep. So make sure to ask for a room on higher floor. Regarding the breakfast one day we had the eggs Benedict which were not good as the hollandaise sauce was too watery, scrambled and bland. The 2nd day we had the English breakfast which was very good and I would definitely recommend it. The breakfast continental buffet could have more fruit options (only apple and oranges were available) and should be refilled regularly which wasn’t the case.

The listing on Hotels.com (and a paper sign inside the room itself) advertise the hotel as having ‘free on site parking’. The property does not have parking. So I spent 4 days having to musical chairs my car around the car parks of Alnwick so as to not get a ticket. This is false advertising, and I wouldn’t have booked if the venue was honest about the parking situation.
