I stayed here to see the Olympic interior. Very interesting. The only downside was no lifts and lots of steps. The rooms at the rear are the best ones to book. Probably could do with a re-vamp and a bit of colour in the rooms. Please change those blinds in the upstairs rooms 😂 I would stay again in tge rooms at the back with a nice outside area 👍

This is a historic hotel with a 1930's style but cleverly made over to incorporate most modern facilities and everything is very clean and functional. The staff are friendly and helpful. A star feature installed in the hotel is the ex- RMS Olympic (ref. Titanic) dining room, which is where guest breakfast is served as well as dinner. It complements the feel of the place really well. The breakfast buffet is unpretentious but good with full English self-service. We booked only one night but our stay will be memorable for all the right reasons.

Nice hotel, but rooms could do with an update. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast, but some of it was cold due to the method of serving it. Beautiful dining room reclaimed from the Olympic, sister ship of the Titanic. Free parking either at the hotel or car park nearby. Alnwick itself is a beautiful old market town.

There's no lift in the hotel and it is a labyrinth of stairs and corridors: not recommended for people with mobility issues. Our twin room accommodation was OK, however the mattresses and pillows were squeaky and lumpy (hair on one of the pillows protective cover☹️). Access to the hotel carpark at the rear is awkward and places are limited. Self service breakfast was adequate.

This is a gem of a hotel. Room excellent, tasteful decor. Bed and pillows fabulous. Overlooks castle. Staff super efficient. Thank you to the lovely receptionist who explained car parking discs! Affordable fine dining with room decor from the Olympic an additional bonus. Free parking included. What's not to like.

Overnight stay with dogs.
Really nice main hotel. Room was tatty in places eg dated bathroom. Have to have breakfast in the bar area because of dogs but a menu in the table would be advised so you can see what there is to choose from. Also for breakfast, juice could be provided on the bar rather than having to go to the dining area for this. On a positive, the staff were friendly and even brought the dogs a sausage for breakfast. Also there is a nice little garden area for the dogs to go and do their buisness. The radiators in the hallway made an horrific noise late into the night and customer services had to be called. This happened again at 6am waking us so not a very good nights sleep! So much potential with a few tweaks made.

Ideal location, room was clean but a bit dark. Really good breakfast most mornings, not able to book an evening meal as they said they were fully booked although we only saw 8 people in the restaurant. Plenty of other places to eat in Alnwick luckily.

Lovely hotel. Very friendly, helpful staff. Ate in the beautiful restaurant,which is stunning on the first night. Website says fine dining. It was terrible. Cold food which looked like it had been steaming in a Bain Marie for a long time. Fish was bland and roast potatoes were brown and mushy inside. Mostly inedible. Only things that saved the experience were the staff and the surroundings.
