Sightseeing tip: Short walk from hotel

Durham and the University of Durham are a short walk. The hotel is next to the river which attracts interesting birds (grey herons and cormorants as well as ducks). Shopping is also close.

Modern hotel in perfect location

Modern hotel in perfect location just a 2 minute walk from the theatre area of the city. Has its own car park with very good rates. Large rooms with everything you need. All staff were very friendly. Would definitely stay again.
