They found our passport in the room when we checked out but extended our stay in another room. The hotel did not call us and had it over to us when we were still staying at the property. After we exited Durham to London ,we had to come back a day later and collect our passport .It was an Expensive Inconvenience…

The Durham Royal County is very centrally located. The rooms are comfortable and well-appointed with lovely bathrooms. The staff were efficient and friendly. Good buffet breakfast although the coffee from a machine was not great. The reception area, bar and dining room, despite being in a historic building are corporate and bland. I would recommend for the location and the rooms.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service

Mediocre and over priced

The hotel itself was clean, the staff were great and the bed was comfortable however our room was very dated, small and the bath was incredibly creaky. The quality of the breakfast was alright but it was Luke warm at best which let it down. Overall it was fine but you can get better at a lot cheaper rates.
