Premier Inn Durham (Newton Aycliffe)

The best premier inn we have ever stayed in hands down without shadow of a doubt. For a start, we walked into the room and there was an A4 piece of paper on the side informing us THREE eggs had been hidden in the room for us to find. Cue the excitement and frenzy as we all (including 30 year old me and 60 year old granny) raced round the room to find the eggs. Granny made the rookie mistake of going for the bathroom but let’s be honest who’s hiding eggs in the toilet lass. Meanwhile in the bedroom, the frenzy continued resulting in one 12 year old being shoved out of the way and two milk cartons being thrown into the abyss to retrieve the final egg in what can only be described as an act of pure excellence. We then went to the reception to redeem the mystery prize and the 30 year old claimed the children’s Easter egg #winnerwinnerchickendinner The staff were awesome, super friendly and accommodating. We are already planning our next trip here, perfect location to explore Durham and to use as a pit stop for beamish. 10/10 guys!

What a lovely premier inn. Surrounded by open countryside. On arrival the receptionist called John was very pleasant and efficient. Large car park so no problem parking (free). A clean well kept premier inn. And as always a super comfy bed. Our room was quiet.I will book again when visiting family in Middlesbrough and would recommend highly simply due to great staff and the position of the premier inn. The cleaning staff obviously do a great job as the room was spotless.

We have been to this particular Premier inn multiple times due to the proximity to family and it never fails to impress us all as a family. We are always welcomed so warmly and nothing is ever too much. Each time we visit we always find they have done something special for when we arrive to our room, this could be as simple as a bag of sweets for our children all the way to an Easter egg hunt that’s been set up in our room. We will always book to stay here when we visit. Thanks to all the staff for your kindness and excellent service!

Perfect hotel for overnight stop over on the way to Newcastle. Everything you expect from a Premier Inn. Loved Bobbie's little gift of chocolate biscuits from room service. It's little things that make a big difference. Hotel also really helpful ahead of stay to ensure we were aware of local roadworks and how it affected the access.

Me and gf and lil one stay the night room was spotless and beds was lovely and comfy and lady and Sue at the desk was really lovely and friendly. Defor wud stay again with the family or just me and girlfriend. In a great location with a pub beside it for food

From the courtesy call to confirm the booking, to the friendly welcome and extra treats in the room, this was unlike any other Premier Inn experience we’ve had before! A couple of minor issues sorted in a jiffy! An excellent stay ahead of a day out at Beamish!
