"The property is overall really good, the bed was comfortable. The staff was really good they provided me with extra towels at no additional cost. Safe parking and location of the hotel is exactly to be on point, especially if you are visiting the city center. "
"Property was immaculate and everything you would need for a stay.
We were on the ground floor at the back however there was a generator at the back of our room on the wall outside that was on all night quite loud so found it difficult to sleep. "
"It was terrible and got worse the more I investigated. The drains were blocked and the bathroom not cleaned, dirty towels on the doors and the bed had black bits through the white sheets! Thank goodness the sheets were white so I could see how dirty it was!"
"The whole process of being able to stay there was awful.
I had emails asking me to verify my identity but no correct link sent.
I was threatened with a cancellation without refund desite the fact they had not given me the opportunity to do what they asked.
Having finally been sent a link I verified and arrived to be told this was very common.
At the property Fire Doors were constantly janmed open."
"absolutely terrible when we got there they didn’t have our booking and tried to place us in a smaller room for double the price I booked for. The room was tiny and the men were rude"
"Good location, parking was available although we had to pay for it. The double beds were on the small size, bedroom furniture looked quite old, and the mattresses were a bit soft for us. Easy self check in process and quiet rooms."
"We were working in the area, easy public transport into centre asda literally 2minutes walk away, property was very clean and tidy and any questions were answered straight away .
Ideal for what we needed, will definitely be staying again"
"We stayed as a group of 8 ladies, we we watching a show at the stage making this apartment the perfect location. Directly outside the metro station, with a few minutes walk. The apartment had everything we needed, it was spotlessly clean and the beds were super comfy. Would highly recommend "
"0/5 – Worst stay of my life.
Plummer House Newcastle was an absolute disgrace from start to finish. The room was filthy on arrival — dirty sink and work surfaces, stained floors, damaged furniture, worn cabinets, filthy fridge, marked and stained chairs, and mugs that looked like they hadn’t been properly cleaned in months. This is not “student accommodation” or “serviced living” — it’s neglect.
The female manager was rude and unprofessional, even trying to make me check out 12 hours earlier...

"Great hotel. Lovely staff. Rooms could do with some charging points near the beds but other than than they were decent sized, clean and well appointed. In a great location to get to Newcastle or pop over to the Stadium of Light like we did. "
"Excellent two night stay. Lovely large room with lounge area which we later found out was the bridal suite.
Room had bath and shower, bath towels could have done to be larger. Breakfast and lunch in the restaurant was very good. I am coeliac requiring gluten free and the staff were excellent and helpful especially Michael. Very local to station and town "
"I discovered this hotel last year and liked it so much that it was a no-brainer to return this year. It was every bit as good. The staff are lovely. The rooms are designed perfectly and kept spotless. The breakfasts are excellent, although they have increased in price since last year. The location could scarcely be beaten: a five-minute walk from the Central Station, yet quiet enough for a very restful night's sleep.
My only suggestion for improvement would be to alter the harsh lighting in the bathroom, which adds 20 years to anyone's age.
Bleach-white LED lights from overhead wash out your face and throw all your blemishes and wrinkles into a geriatric relief map.
When the time comes to upgrade the bathrooms, consider placing the ceiling lights slightly behind where the person will be standing at the sink then angle the beam so that the lighting bounces off the mirror into the person's face. This is still bright, but it softens their appearance (it's an old design trick).
As q quick fix, you might even be able to warm the LED lights without too much hassle because most are switchable these days."
