Bishop Auckland Hotels

Good alround comfort and value.

Impressed that the heating remained on at night and also that the hot water was always very hot. Not every hotel has this standard

Ideal location for our trip, friendly accommodatiing staff. Special offers well worth the money. Heating on 2nd floor was not on in the morning, on an especially cold morning, had to use hair drier to warm room.

Second time visit for a two night relaxing break. Found the hotel to be just a good as the first time. Standard room was very spacous and was really a suite with chairs, table and a sofa in addition to the massive, very comfortable bed. Excellenct value from the dinner bed & breakfast deal. At dinner the menu partial al-a-carte, part table de hote. On table de hote you select from dishes printed in bold. The good point is there is then an overall price allowance per head and if you want something al-a-carte you only pay the extra.

excellent hotel, staff very, very nice and very helpfull meal was ok but could have been better, but did not take away from visit

Very comfortable - good value for money at the price I paid. Bar staff unable to process simple orders for food in the evening with any degree of competance. I was asked if I was next and having taken my order, the barmaid then proceeded to pour wine for another customer and left the bar to serve them. The barman asked if I would like anything with my meal when serving it. I asked for vinegar but it never appeared. Another guest asked for the Burger meal without cheese and was it was served to him complete with cheese 3 times!

Clean, efficient and not far from the town centre. A good pub & restaurant next door

excellent staff on reception, easy check in / out and informative staff, very enjoyable stay

Lovely setting, excellent food comparable with michelin starred restaurants we have used, friendly and attentive staff. That we couldn't stay longer!!

The staff. Attentive and courteous and professional

We attended a wedding so only had bed and breakfast in the hotel which was excellent. The wedding arrangements all went well and seemed well organised.Having viewed the menue we will return for dinner at some furtre date.

just about everything, the whole experience was most pleasing! no

The food and the room.

The lovely gardens and grounds, and table-service in the restaurant.

I spend a lot of time in hotels and this time I felt as though I was in someone's home - A crisp autum walk around the grounds followed by hot chocolate in front of a real crackling log fire..heaven. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and breakfast fresh cooked rather than kept warm under hot lamps. Bedroom cosy and comforable with stereo /cd with cds and i pod dock, candles and oil burner in the bathroom. I would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to avoid the 'corporate hotel' My only suggestion for any improvements would be that the decor in the room I stayed in was rather tired ( a bit 90's) and I would have loved a reading lamp in the armchair seating area to complete the experience.

hotel is immaculate and in stunning surroundings
