Travelodge Durham ★★★
"Very economical! It's very convenient to go anywhere, very clean room, good value for money"
Hotel Indigo DURHAM by IHG ★★★★
"Very nice and cosy hotel. The restaurant provides a large variety of cooked breakfast together with a continental buffet. My family and I enjoyed our stay here."
Premier Inn Durham East ★★★
"Great place to stay at a reasonable price just outside of Durham which is an easy 5 minute drive away. The hotel is clean and comfortable with friendly helpful staff. There is a large free car park. The hotel is quiet at night."
Delta Hotels by Marriott Durham Royal County ★★★★
"Durham's top choice, hands down. Excellent value for money."
Premier Inn Durham North ★★★
"Had a great time in Durham north visiting for radio 1 big weekend. Rooms were clean, breakfast was great and staff were really friendly and helpful. They even had a table with festival freebies at reception which I’ve never seen before. Big shout out to Adam who looked after us at check in and breakfast."
Radisson Blu Hotel, Durham ★★★★
"The hotel has a very good location, which is definitely a plus and makes it convenient for exploring the area. However, we were disappointed by a few additional charges. Bathrobes are provided only for an extra £8, and the hotel parking is also paid, which was not very convenient and added unexpected costs to the stay."
Cbh Ramside Hotel Golf Spa Durham ★★★★
"Lovely place, infinity pool was really nice. Bedroom was clean and spacious. Shame we couldn’t book our spa hour as the time we wanted was full, other than that everything was great."
Honest Lawyer Hotel ★★★
"Could do with a good update. Having radiator on ready for guests arrival would have been a nice touch, room was freezing at first. Breakfast was buffet style and a bit chaotic but got there in the end."
Premier Inn Durham City Centre (Walkergate) ★★★
"A standard chain hotel with self-service check-in. The location is excellent, a few minutes walk from the city center. The only problem is that the bathroom has a musty smell and there is no exhaust fan, so I have to open the window for ventilation every day."

My Way Guest House
"Had a lovely two night stay. Kaye and Steve are very friendly, chilled and accommodating. Home from home feel, the location to Durham centre is perfect and set in beautiful grounds with fab views. Very peaceful and quiet. Great exterior facilities and the communal kitchen/lounge facilities are akin to a self catered property! So useful especially if you’re staying a few nights. Everything was immaculately clean everywhere. Breakfast was a quality continental selection, with fresh eggs and a fab egg cooker to make boiled eggs just as you like them. And all essential fresh coffee and presses. Only downside we felt, was the constant early morning activity, bumping and creaking floorboards from the floor above. Great value for money. Look forward to staying again."
Moor End House Bed & Breakfast
"William, who owns the guest house was extremely accommodating, helpful and friendly. The room was clean & comfortable, with a good little shower room en suite. Everything you could think of was provided - biscuits, tea & coffee, fridge, extra radiator if needed, all forms of toiletries etc. We ordered breakfast by choosing anything we wanted from a really comprehensive menu the night before and it was laid out for us in the breakfast room at exactly the time we had asked for it. William even organised a driver to take us to and pick us up from a gig at the Stadium of Light. We would definitely stay again and recommend it to others."
40 Winks Hospitality
"This hotel is simply stunning! We loved every part of it. We stayed in the Gala room, which was beautiful. The roll top bath in the large bay window with views of Durham Cathedral was very special. Breakfast was excellent and a real treat. A special thank you to all the hardworking staff, who were so kind and welcoming. We really liked chatting with the lovely George (hotel manager). He was so friendly and he told us about the history of the building, which was really interesting. We will definitely be returning and 100% recommend this place."
The Shoes
"Nice and spacious clean twin room, with plenty of tea and coffees. The 3 ladies were very helpful and kind."
The Avenue
The Royal Oak
"The proprietress is very enthusiastic, the building is a bar restaurant with local characteristics, and the breakfast is very good. Parking at the door is suitable for self-driving travel, and the price is very high."
Cozy Apartments in the Center of London
"When we were looking for somewhere to stay we were concerned that there had been no reviews written for here since 2022? However due to being offered at a good price and being satisfied with what reviews were offered we chose to stay for two nights in May 2024. The checkin was easy and the accommodation (Hen House) is well presented, comfortable and warm. We found the information folder made us smile as it referenced info from 2019 & clearly hadn’t been updated for some time. The lack of any information detailing walks we could take from the accommodation with our two dogs was also frustrating. That said, we got what we wanted, a peaceful stay in a handy location. We had an enjoyable time exploring Durham city as well as Hamsterley Forest. We self catered with no issues. The WiFi was essential for the smart TV to work, so when the WiFi was knocked off on our last day before we had even left, meant our last impression wasn’t great. If we needed to stay in the area again we would consider returning though."
Home from Home, only 5 minutes drive from Historical Durham center.
White House Cottages
"Just came back from a nice chilled weekend in a lovely cottage the hen house. Owners very friendly and helpful, pub across the road is brilliant and very well priced for drinks and food. We definitely will be returning in the future and would highly recommend it to anyone"
Durham Riverside Apartments
"Advertised as five star and that’s exactly what it is. Really well equipped, very comfortable and well appointed. Lovely to sit out on the balcony and look over the river at the rowing crews and the swans. Perfect location for city centre. Chris and Wendy very approachable, and well informed. A great stay. Thank you."
