Really great hotel, we stayed in the Dorm which was fabulous. Restaurant was really nice but i would recommend booking in advance. Short walk to Alnwick castle. The parking was a bit trickier than expected and we found a free car park less than 5 mins away.

Wonderful room, spacious with comfy bed and large bathroom. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was cold, including drinks and toast. That was the only downside. Would definitely stay again.

Beautifully quirky property! Lovely staff and great value for money and tasty food! Great location! Only dropped a star as water stopped half way through having a shower and had to wait 20mins for a drink due to influx of customs and not enough manpower at that time Definitely recommend a stay or even pop in for food

I expected this to be a touristy hotel, but it’s a few rooms located over a pub. I was so pleasantly surprised. The room was spectacularly decorated. The TV had access to the Harry Potter movies so we were able to watch one in our room the night before visiting the castle. The provided breakfast was wonderful. 10/10 would recommend and would stay here again.

Great hotel in a fab location very attentive staff
Lovely Harry Potter themed hotel and restaurant The Dirty Bottles breakfast was great and we also ate there on an evening generous tasty portions and lovely atmosphere,Staff attentive. we stayed in the chamber really lovely room the only thing was it’s not very sound proof with the adjoining room Dumbledorm we could hear them talking and walking around probably didn’t help that the people weren’t very considerate of other guests. The room could do with a suitcase stand as there was nowhere to put your case other than the floor and the room is big enough to take it. I would also suggest a shelf in the bathroom by the sink so you have somewhere to put your toiletries and be careful in the shower as it leaks on the floor But we loved it and would return great location backs onto Alnwick Castle

Sorted your stay
This was a wonderful place to stay when visiting the castle the staff were so friendly and helpful and our room (the chamber) was lots of fun, complete with sorting hat and the bathroom looked new, my only beware was that there are lots of stairs, which added to the atmosphere but were steep and narrow I would highly recommend

Fab hotel, great location & excellent service and
We loved this hotel, it had been lovingly designed with a cool bar, cosy nooks to dine and drink in and our room was huge with a luxe bathroom with claw foot bath, Elemis products and bath robes. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the location was excellent for town and for visiting Alnwick Castle and Gardens. There are just enough Hogwarts inspired touches without it feeling tacky or twee. We would definitely recommend this hotel.
