Fairly good location, just annoying there’s no rear entrance to Newcastle station! Staff were friendly enough but not overly welcoming. Prosecco on arrival was a nice touch. I had asked for a room along the side of the hotel that faces the railway so I could enjoy the views of the trains, but I didn’t get that.

Very nice hotel. The room was spacious and clean. The best aspect is the breakfast, not many places serve a full English with black pudding so that was a nice touch.

The Crowne Plaza does a very nice Afternoon Tea, delicious and tailored to your dietary needs. We added Prosecco to ours and the service was brilliant. The food delicious and the surroundings calm and relaxing.
