Royal Station Hotel

I recently stayed at the Royal Station Hotel in Newcastle and had a wonderful experience. The hotel’s amazing decor immediately caught my eye, with its stunning Victorian architecture, ornate fireplaces, and sparkling chandeliers creating a truly elegant atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally attentive, providing friendly and efficient service throughout my stay. My room was clean and comfortable, offering a perfect blend of historic charm and modern amenities. Breakfast was a highlight, with a tasty and varied buffet that included both full English and continental options. The only minor issue I encountered was that the shower took a little while to get hot, but this was a small inconvenience in an otherwise excellent stay. Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with the Royal Station Hotel and would definitely stay again. Its central location, just a minute’s walk from Newcastle’s main train and metro stations, makes it an ideal base for exploring the city. Whether you’re visiting for business or leisure, this hotel offers a delightful mix of history, comfort, and convenience.

Staff were really friendly, room was very clean, shower pressure was good, and I had quiet night. Added bonus of a fitness suite with pool, which is free for guests. I had a single room on 4th floor which was basic but had a fridge and the bed was big - more a 1.5x size which was great. No towels in the room but reception sorted that quickly. All in all a good stay for a great price.

What an incredible find. On the way to Newcastle, straight from work in Derbyshire, we wanted a place near to the station as we were staying one night to catch a 10:00 train. £60. We were not expecting a lot, but a lot is what we got. We got a parking space right by the back door, and we entered to find a really well-kept hotel from the grand days of steam. Beautiful chandeliers, extraordinarily friendly staff on the desk, and a lovely bar. Our room was at the end of a corridor, so quiet, and it has a bedroom, a small lounge with a desk, and a bath room, with a bath. £60! For the room, not each! We've always stayed at more modern hotels out of the centre and paid at least twice the price. Never again. Thank you for a great stay.

Hotel was lovely. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. Location brilliant right next to train station. Stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed ourselves. The Christmas trees looked amazing too. Only down side was the beds were not very comfortable but I suppose everyone likes different things when it comes to beds.

We had a great stay at the hotel, right in the center of Newcastle. The location was perfect for easily reaching everything in the city. The room was warm, clean, and comfortable, making our stay enjoyable. Unfortunately, the swimming pool wasn’t working last night, and the hot tub wasn’t quite warm enough, but aside from that, everything else was excellent. Overall, it was a great experience, and we’d definitely stay here again.

I love this Hotel and it's beautiful decor, the lounge and dining area is perfect to relax in with coffee or a wine. ||I requested a quiet room if possible and I was given my request, baring in mind this is a city centre hotel and right by the train station so expect some noise, you ain't in the countryside! I still managed to sleep well. ||I love the charm of this Hotel and it's original features, I booked a last minute two night break for my birthday and I had the best time. I made use of the Spa facilities, jacuzzi, pool, sauna, steam room and plunge pool. Great after a days shopping to chill. ||I also enjoyed my food in the restaurant each evening. ||The Hotel is central to EVERYTHING. So the location is perfect. ||I felt totally at ease as a solo traveller and met lots of lovely people within the Hotel. ||I arrived on my Birthday and I want to give a very special mention to Keira who works in the restaurant, she is a lovely girl who looked after me so well, kind, caring and friendly, she went above and beyond for me, she's a real asset to the hotel. Thanks for making my birthday so special and the lovely surprise on my dessert! ||Michael made my lattes each morning and brought them to my table, many thanks Michael! ||Not forgetting Christine who was fantastic with me, helping carry my bags out of the door for my train. ||I will certainly be back soon and I hope to see the lovely staff again. ||It'll be my place of choice even for coffee or a wine if I'm passing by.||Also absolutely stunning Christmas Decorations, visiting this time of year is a must for those alone! ||Thank you All!

Literally 2 buildings away from the station, beautiful building and the staff are amazing. I booked a single room not expecting much, but it's larger than I thought with a small double bed, TV fridge etc ... mine also had a bath (which I requested) Lovely!

Christmas lunch with the family. Not sure what to expect as first time not cooking on Christmas Day. Pleasantly surprised. Room beautifully decorated and plenty of room on our table for the 12 of us. Food hot and plentiful. Not home cooking but better than expected. Staff really excellent. Attended to all needs promptly. Loved the fact the the name cards told each individual what they'd ordered. Really helpful for those family members who'd forgotten what they'd selected. Lots of room for the smaller members of our family. Liked being able to move to another room for coffee and mince pies and being able to stay and relax.| Would we go again. Possibly! No complaints. Nice food, relaxed atmosphere. Need to start saving now.!!

This hotel is really good, especially considering the price!! - It is sooo easy to find. Come out of the station, turn right and you'll see it. - The rooms were really big, with decent sized bathrooms - The breakfast was included in the room rate and wasn't bad (the croissant wasn't fresh but at least they provided lots of fruit, and lots of tea!!) - They do nice things like leave you complimentary water, juice and a kitkat - The staff were really friendly and helpful I heard a few people mention that their room were noisy when trains arrived/departed, but my room was fine... If I need to stay in Newcastle again I'll definitely come back here.

Great stay at this fantastic hotel. So conveniently located. The room and the bathroom were huge and very clean. The food was deliciousness the staff fantastic. I would highly recommend this hotel if you are visiting Newcastle and I would definitely return.

My reasons for being in Newcastle were not that of glamorous business travel, however, I found myself in need of somewhere central to stay for the night. Within a few minutes of the train station is the Royal Station Hotel. The hotel is quite large - and typical of the traditional hotels you'd expect next to Victorian railway stations. Inside, there's a large foyer, with corridors leading to the reception, function suites, a restaurant, a bar, a gym and a pool. For a 3 star hotel, it's very well appointed. I didn't try out any food, the gym or the bar, but the room itself was more than adequate. I stayed in a small double, which has all the usual features you'd expect, including free wifi - and an extremely comfy bed. A nice touch was the mini-fridge with complimentary mineral water, fruit juice and chocolate biscuits. At £55 for the night, it did represent excellent value. If I was in Newcastle city centre again and needed somewhere to stay, I'd be quite likely to go back here.

*Location/Getting there This hotel is located right next to the train station -how great is that?nothing worse than a long journey followed by having to find a hotel.There is loads of places to eat nearby,plenty to see and do.The bus station is also quite nearby and would take about 10 minutes to walk too. Reception/staff The hotel looks really nice from the outside-a grand looking building.Reception looks really nice with big chandlers hanging from the ceiling and there are two lifts.Staff were nice and i had the option of paying straight away or when i checked out. Hotel/Room The room i stayed in was a twin room and it had a complimentary mini-bar.Room had an en suite with a great shower and a phillips flat screen tv Other Room service was good .There was a wide selection of food available with healthy eating options. Price* This costs £60 for a night and doesn't include breakfast.This is an average price for a 3 star hotel. The only bad thing about this hotel was that it got noisy outside very early in the morning,so you might not like it if you are a light sleeper.

Not many car parking spaces. We were lucky and just managed to get one. Don't know what we would have done if we hadn't been able to get one. There was plenty of noise duruing the night from what sounded like stag / hen / birthday partys etc, which is to be expected in Newcastle. However we should have phoned reception to complain and maybe someone would have come and said something, but you never know how long the shouting and banging doors its is going to last. Apart from other people making all the noise and keeping us awake there wasn't any other noise from traffic or trains. We were given a wifi code but only a few MB on data so that quickly ran out :(

Wow, my sister just visited and we stayed together in this place. We had wanted to go to the Thistle but it wasn't available so this was second choice but I'm so glad it was! Although it doesn't look like much from the outside - the interior of this old hotel is absolutely stunning. It has echoey marble type floors and crystal chandeliers hanging up! The decor is very old fashioned and it all reminded me of that creepy movie starring John Cusack, 1408! It is so atmospheric. The room we had was lovely. It was very clean, reasonably sized with a tv, drawers, dresser and mirror, mini-fridge with a welcome snack of a club biscuit and a just juice (like a kiddies packed lunch, admittedly but quite welcome all the same) tea and coffee making facilities, an en-suite bathroom and a window that overlooks the road outside of Central Station. The lady at reception was very helpful and was treating us as though we were first time visitors/tourists to the city, even though we are Geordies. There is a big table by the lifts full of helpful maps and leaflets full of things to do in the town and surrounding areas. Breakfast is served promptly in beautiful surroundings by hard-working staff. Very reasonable prices and a brilliant location for anybody coming to visit the city.

Newcastle upon Tyne is one of my favourite places in the world. I've hung out with actors, been to the Theatre Royal more times than I can remember, messed about around the river Tyne and explored quite a few of the many bars and restaurants. When I booked tickets recently to see a play, I decided I'd do things properly and stay at The Royal Station Hotel. The Royal Station Hotel is exactly what you'd expect of a hotel in Newcastle. It's old, superb in appearance from the outside and all the rooms are clean and tidy. There are a couple of restaurants very close by. Checking in was pretty painless. The only drawback was that we'd arrived too early. The staff were happy to take our bags until the room were ready. They looked slightly young but pleasant. I'd come up by rail and found the hotel was only a matter of feet away from the Station. We returned later to the hotel and completed checked in. The room was lovely, with a huge double bed and chairs, TV and a mini bar. There was also a complimentary bowl of fresh fruit. Rate: 5/5

one've the nicest hotels i have ever stayed in! Its beautiful, comfey, clean and the staff are really lovely!

this is situated near the central which is very convenient for going back to after a great night out.the prices are solid and the rooms are middle of the road but good enough to stay in for a night without any complaints.it's also easy to get around.
