Reviews for Quality Hotel Boldon

Review 1:Two beds/ mattresses had been pushed together under one sheet so that when sleeping it was on different levels and slightly uncomfortable.

Review 2:Gorgeous hotel, room was lovely and spotless.

Review 3:The staff couldn't be more helpful, we had a wait for our evening meal as we were booked in over Xmas and they had 3 parties in they apologised profusely and gave us 20% off our meal even though we hadn't complained. We booked again for our next Christmas shopping trip.

Review 4:No brochure in room. No snacks/ light meal availability. No instructions for lighting. Bedside reading light discovered day2!! Few more electric sockets for phones, ipad, and wheelchair battery charging.

Review 5:Excellent, happy, helpful friendly staff. Ordered wheelchair taxis. Bedroom decor gorgeous. Warm and adjustable for cooler night sleep. Well sound insulated. Nice view. Wheelchair accessible. Fluffy towels. Powerful shower. Housekeeping available pm if we wanted a lie in and lazy am. Nothing too much trouble.

Review 6:Nothing

Review 7:Spacious, immaculately clean room and bathroom, great shower, enormous bed and television! Perfect. Didnt have to pay extra for leisure facilities, like some hotels. Never watched a film in a swimming pool before...

Review 8:misinformation by staff who didnt know up to date information. booked for dinner at 5.00pm ,came down only to be told no dinner service that night. was then directed 20 min down the road to a local pub ,upon arrival no service also. found out on the way back there is a retail park 5min in opposite direction with frankie & bennys , nando,s etc ?

Review 9:good parking helpfull staff who didnt know anything.

Review 10:Staff, poor service non existent. No one greeted us at breakfast to take our room number or explain anything, in fact any one could have walked in. Breakfast was dried up and there wasn't even any tea or anyone to ask for some! Tried to book in the morning for lunch and dinner and was told the restaurant was too busy with other functions to cook for guests, told to go to a local pub instead.

Review 11:The room was a decent size.

Review 12:The hotel is just off the motorway and the staff are very friendly. This was our second visit to the hotel and the room was very comfortable and clean. We will use the quality whenever we come to the north east.

Review 13:The only down side was we tried to order some afternoon bar snacks and they were without two of the three things we tried to order which was disappointing for so early in the day.

Review 14:Really impressed with the standard of cleanliness, comfort and service at the hotel. We were attending a Christmas party here and decided to stay overnight as it was so reasonably priced. The room was a good size with a lovely modern bathroom and comfortable bed. We were equally impressed with the gym and pool facilities.

Review 15:Just the veiw from our window which looked out on to refuge area

Review 16:This hotel was in a good location for every were we wanted to go the staff were freindley and helpfule

Review 17:Although they seemed o.k. (maybe I was exceptionally tired) the pillows lacked support as I had a sore neck in the morning (the head was fine!!).

Review 18:Very conveniently located for the business park where I had a meeting.

Review 19:Would have been nice to have breakfast included, or the option of continental.

Review 20:The staff made this a great stay, they couldn't do enough for you and were very friendly. Very clean and well equipped. Good location.

Review 21:Breakfast was v expensive. Should be a nominal cost for continental breakfast... Say £5.

Review 22:Quick check in well equipped room. Everything you could want in it.

Review 23:Price high for twin room. Breakfast very expensive, no hot orders taken at breakfast apart from what was on buffet. Eg requested for poached egg or omelette.

Review 24:Clean, comfortable room. TV, Toiletries and coffee in room. Friendly and helpful staff. Good location.

Review 25:The cost of breakfast is £11 per person which would add an extra £22 onto the price of a double room which is excessive and not worth it.

Review 26:Modern hotel, with good clean facilities and very pleasant staff.

Review 27:Little bit further away from the city than we would have liked, but only about 15 minutes in a taxi, no problems!

Review 28:Staff great, food lovely and pool facilities super

Review 29:A wedding reception had been held so on arrival the bar area and seating for guests checking in was not very respectable ..ie glasses & left over food were on all tables, and not clean in appearance on arrival.

Review 30:Excellent room. Hotel very clean and colourful

Review 31:Waited long time for lunch and drinks never came with it. Had to wait until staff member appeared to request them at the end instead with the food.

Review 32:efficient on reception, rooms fine, good function

Review 33:Service was a little slow in the restaurant and the food was not great when it came

Review 34:Good facilities, clean and in good condition. Friendly and efficient staff

Review 35:The food was not good and took a long time to be served - from ordering to receipt on both nights it was an hour!! Although the breakfast on both occasions was fine.

Review 36:Clean modern room

Review 37:Receptionist was lovely - very welcoming, ordered food which was lovely and the duty manager was also very polite. Overall great experience, would recommend to anyone

Review 38:What we didn't like about the hotel was the breakfast smell didn't seem very appetising, may be it had been in the chafing dishes stewing too long. Consequently we did not eat breakfast during our stay.

Review 39:we found it very relaxing, and the staff were pleasant.

Review 40:Free wifi signal was a little weak in the bedroom but fine in the bar and restaurant.

Review 41:Fantastic hotel - one of the best I've stayed in for a very long time. Lovely staff, great comfy room with quality extras (biscuits, drink facilities, bathroom toiletries), excellent pool, sauna, jacuzzi and steam room, tasty breakfast with large variety and all for the price less then a Travelodge

Review 42:No remote for air con so cold in room. Had to ask for remote but it was brought quickly by a member of staff who was very apologetic. TV crackly after it was turned off and kept me awake for over an hour.

Review 43:Clean room, lovely food, comfy bed, location convenient.

Review 44:A few little niggles.Cord on hair dryer too short so extremely difficult to use also it kept cutting out so ended up giving up on it. Placement of mirror and dressing table were not in line so made it awkward to use.Fridge in room would have been nice. Nothing here is a deal breaker by any means but like I say are just little niggles.

Review 45:The leisure facilities were fantastic. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were extremely polite and friendly.

Review 46:Found loads of hairs in the bathroom and the toilet wasn't very clean. We also found 3 huge spiders in the room and the breakfast should be cheaper since the rooms in general aren't cheap.

Review 47:Very close to a cinema and nice restaurants, the food in the hotel is nice but not worth the cost compared to what you could get elsewhere. Rooms have good facilities; comfortable bed and good sized bath / shower.

Review 48:Really good location close to the stadium of light In Sunderland but also not to expensive in a taxi to newcastle! Just what we needed In terms of location, clean, smart and reasonable price! Staff were also very helpful!

Review 49:Unfortunatley, the service in the lounge and bar was terrible, slow, unattentive and poorley cooked food. Disappointing.

Review 50:Hotel location and facilites are great

Review 51:Poor food choices in restaurant. Ate in bar which was fine but some food stuffs under table quite off putting.

Review 52:Needed to be close by so ideal location.

Review 53:Meal (dinner) very costly with poor quality Around 33 euros for a starter + main course + a bootle of water !! Moreover we hope a more elaborate dish for this price

Review 54:Welcoming team Facilities Location

Review 55:As we had come to Newcastle for the rugby the hotel was some way out of the city, had difficulty finding anywhere to stay at a reasonable price when I booked in January! Some noise from wedding guests in the courtyard at 4.00 am, voices carry on a still night, guess they were having a smoke before finally going to bed!

Review 56:Friendly staff, good meals, plenty of choice at breakfast

Review 57:Breakfast was a little disappointing but adequate. both days it was a bit hit and miss what was on the hot plate. Hotel was full so it may just have been because of throughput.

Review 58:Staff where excellent. Very helpful and friendly. Have an agreement with a local cab company to get set fairs into Newcastle

Review 59:No cot bed available, disappointing that this was offered on booking. High chair dirty. Staff did not appear used to young guests and their needs. No service staff at breakfast and items weren't restocked on the buffet (ran out of coffee :-0) Double bed made up of two singles which I always find uncomfy

Review 60:Swimming pool was lovely, room was spacious, plenty of room for toddler and all the kit for sleep and to keep them entertained. Hotel nice and quiet.

Review 61:There were weddings both nights that we were there as well as a busload of 50 OAP's the first day and 40 the next - the restaurant was completely overwhelmed and we were told that we could only order food from the bar (we were 10 miles out of town, so going to another restaurant was not an option) and then we had to wait for more than an hour each time - neglecting other paying guests like that is not acceptable

Review 62:It was in a good location for our purpose and the hotel was clean and the staff friendly

Review 63:Breakfast was terrible - the wors we ever had I believe. Scrambled eggs with yellow hard crust (old), milk in coffee machine was sour (old..), no toast avaible because the toaster broke the day before (ASDA is a 2 minute walk, just buy one!!), no fresh items whatsover, everything packed in plastic. Suitable for a backpackers maybe, not a 4 star.

Review 64:When telephoning in advance, Reception often busy and my calls diverted to other departments.

Review 65:Rooms, ambience, convenience for purposes of my trip. Inivited local friends to dinner - all commented on quality of their meals.

Review 66:Took a £50 pre-authorisation payment out of my current account without telling me. when I rang them they would only say that it would now take up to 3-4 days to return this money. Not happy !!!!

Review 67:Cleanliness and good facilities

Review 68:Regular desk person not around when we checked in. Three other staff members did not seem to know how to process a check-in. Took about 15 minutes to complete. Cost of breakfast at more than 10 pounds seemed rather high. Okay for those on expenses I guess

Review 69:Convenient location to visit family. Plenty of room in king bed (we have a king at home) Quiet

Review 70:Wifi wasn't so good in our room, but that's it.

Review 71:We stayed at the hotel as I was running The Great North Run. The staff were very helpful on how to get to the start line and answered all questions we had. The hotel is easy access to the route too for spectators. Lovely clean rooms, helpful staff.

Review 72:The breakfast on the first morning was very depleted and cold. Had tobwIt ages for toast, and scrambled egg , long queues . however , the next day saw a vast improvement,

Review 73:Feiendliness of staff, clean and modern . Comfortable and quiet bedrooms and good atmosphere

Review 74:The only thing we could find was the water wouldn't release from the bath after showering, some had to stand in water to shower.

Review 75:It was quiet but within easy reach of the city and restraints shops etc.

Review 76:Dinner meal not the best, nor the breakfast. Cleaner barged in to the room without knocking whilst I was in the bathroom!

Review 77:Excellent room standard. Wi-Fi much better than expected. Relaxed surroundings

Review 78:The bed was very uncomfortable and no controls for air conditioning available in the room. Freeview TV reception was awful.

Review 79:Great facilities including free parking and access to the leisure centre

Review 80:Small point but the hairdryer was fixed on the drawer which made it difficult for me to use

Review 81:Staff very helpful attending for a friends wedding and the room for the wedding was lovely we has a very nice stay and would recommend venue to pthers

Review 82:Opening times of the gym on weekends could be longer (closing 8:00pm).

Review 83:Hotel in good condition, all equipment looks like new, very good gym and indoor pool. English breakfast buffet.

Review 84:The room was not cleaned efficiently or the coffee facilities replenished. The breakfast was grossly overpriced and choices somewhat limited.

Review 85:The bed was very comfortable and the bar food was excellent. Public rooms were very good. Staff polite and friendly.

Review 86:Having waited a considerable time sat in the restaurant, it wad just as well we collected a drink each from the bar, we waited pairiently for some service as another drink would have been nice, eventually we get a waitress to call by and mentioned we have been trying to get some service for some while - well she aggresively told us 'you havnt been waiting you just arrived and im busy' well i can assure you she was a very impollite and incorrect waitress, when eventually the menu's arrived all that was left was one chicken dish or one fish dish, the waitress confirmed they had been busy (although it certainly wasnt when we were there) we were told in no uncertain terms - 'there is nando's and KFC just round the corner - use them if yoy dont like what we have' - i was pleased to pay for one round of drinks and get better service outside - that bit she was right about !

Review 87:Rooms ok, clean and good size - unfortunately just one towel

Review 88:Would have liked the gym to be open earlier than 8am and later than 8pm. Very noisy, we had a room overlooking the courtyard and people were very noisy into the early hours, also people talking loudly in the corridors going to there rooms. Disappointed that we were told it was a family room but the bed was a fold up small camp bed that my son was forced to sleep upon. In the morning the receptionist was very rude and abrupt I felt as though I was an unwelcome interruption.

Review 89:The room was very clean and comfortable. The pool and gym were excellent. Overall presentation of the hotel was welcoming and the decor was modern.

Review 90:My wife and I did not like the way the hotel was "hijacked" by a wedding which overflowed from a function room to the lounge. The staff, few in number considering the size of the wedding, were unable to control proceedings. Parking for residents was not a priority.

Review 91:The location, comfort, facilities and friendly staff suited our requirements, and overall left a good impression of the hotel.

Review 92:Maybe the breakfast should start a little earlier than 7. I had to go to work for 7:30. It felt rushed.

Review 93:The staff! Very friendly and couldn't do enough to help!! The place is clean and is relaxing. I would definitely stay there again.

Review 94:No heating controls in the room, although room guide did state that heating controls were available. Only allowed one room key as hotel said they were waiting for a fresh supply of key cards.

Review 95:Room was very clean and comfortably furnished, breakfast was good value and staff very helpful.

Review 96:I wasn't too keen on the housekeepers cleaning the rooms with all of the dirty sheets lying around the corridor and stair ways. I know this can't be helped Tho as where else couls they put them whilst tidying. Wasn't good to see and walk past Tho when we were checking into our Room.

Review 97:Clean and friendly hotel. I was here for a wedding which was day and night and staff were very helpful and friendly. Throughout all of the event. Loved the room where wedding meal was held and the decor. Also 3 course meal was lovely

Review 98:Staff were so miserable, I never seen one member smile throughout my stay! Drinks were very exspensive!! £4 for an orange juice out the carton?! Ridiculous.

Review 99:Beautiful hotel and the rooms were gorgeous! Wedding room was beautiful!

Review 100:It was a bit noisy as there were wedding celebrations on two of the 3 nights we stayed. Breakfast was very expensive so we ate outside.

Review 101:The hotel is modern and the rooms and bathroom were well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. Would certainly stay there again.

Review 102:The price of our 2nd night was double of the first due to a gig (which we were attending).The price was too high for the type of hotel but we had no choice.

Review 103:Pleasantly suprised but the hotel as we did not have much choice when booking this date. A nice modern but nicely decorated place, rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean. Staff were friendly and helpful with booking taxis ect. Bar open late at night.

Review 104:The food - terrible! Poor room servicing on last day. One of the receptionists needs a training day! On booking, I requested a room near reception as walking disabled. Didn't happen!

Review 105:Room well appointed. Hotel lounge reasonable.Bar/restaurant staff friendly.

Review 106:Nothing wrong with it, location didn't suit us, too far away from Newcastle so we should have looked more closer

Review 107:the hotel was super. Nice rooms, good bar.

Review 108:Breakfast for the two busy days was chaos, no eggs delivered, no eggs cooked, big delays and average food. so not worth the money. Still waiting for a refund.

Review 109:Reception staff could not do more for you

Review 110:The only problem was connecting to the free wifi. I could only find a signal in the hotel lobby, but as I was travelling for leisure, this wasn't a problem but maybe for those on business.

Review 111:I stayed at The Quality Hotel as I was going to a gig in Sunderland. After getting back to the hotel very late, I was shattered but slept like a baby as the beds are so big and so comfy!

Review 112:I arrived late at night with two young children, the young lady on the desk was so lovely and helpful. The pool and changing were very nice and clean!

Review 113:Breakfast was not excellent, it was bog standard at best. Our room was clean but tbh dusty. The reception staff were fantastic couldn't wish for better x the restaurant staff could have been better. Bar staff fab x Over all a good experience.

Review 114:I loved the free upgrade but I had paid 172.oo for a double standard room not so great value for a couple with a budget for one night.

Review 115:Breakfast was not included. The price was steep considering. We used Frankie and Benny's down the road and was half the price. Double bed is two singles pushed together. Dip in the middle. Very comfortable if you stick to your own single.

Review 116:Close to motorway but didn't feel like it. Restaurants and cinema within walking distance. Modern and contemporary looking.

Review 117:The hotel was lovely and clean and the bed so very welcoming following a very strenuous gig at the Stadium of Light. Very kind and helpful staff on hand to point us in the right direction. Overall, delightful.

Review 118:We stayed for the Foo Fighters gig in Sunderland and returning to our rooms really late, exhausted, hungry and a little worse for wear, 24hr room service would have made the stay perfect.

Review 119:A very smart, clean hotel with friendly service and good facilities.

Review 120:Had two rooms at different parts of hotel. On the first of two nights was disturbed at regular intervals up to 4 am by different wedding guests banging on doors running up and down the corridor and shouting. Would not use again if a wedding is planned as not value for money due to noise.

Review 121:Rooms, staff and facilities including use of pool are great.

Review 122:My only complaint was that they were not prepared for the numbers at breakfast. The hotel was fully booked, and there was never a full selection at the hot buffet. Many people stood waiting 5-10 minutes for items to be brought out. On the 2nd morning, we missed the breakfast because they stop serving at 9.30am which i think is quite early. Also, lots of guests paid lots of different prices which is annoying to find out.

Review 123:Booked this hotel as it was one of only a few options left when attending a gig in Sunderland. stayed 2 nights - 1 night was reasonable, 2nd night pretty pricey, and I am suspicious of hotels called 'Quality' as they never are! Arrived to check in, and there was a wedding taking place so it was very busy but we were checked in quickly. The hotel was really nice and clean with nice decor. A nice bar area with comfortable seating, which we drank at, at the end of both nights. Not cheap for drinks but irt was ok. The room was spotless and nice, tea/coffee/biscuits/complimentary bathrooms products. As nice (if not nicer) as the room I stayed in at Malmaison in Birmingham for a lot more money!

Review 124:Two single beds pushed together to form the double. Very poor breakfast, ran out of lots of food and plates est. Phone at reception rang throughout our whole lunch as the staff were covering more than one job at a time. Bill was incorrect.

Review 125:Sunday lunch was beautiful. Aroma and ambience of the hotel is pleasant. Facilities are amazing and would definitely warrant a return visit.

Review 126:Hopeless wi-fi. Only works in the reception area. Unacceptable in 2015. My wife and I have EE phones. Neither worked in the hotel - we had to stand outside the front entrance (apparently due to the metal roof). Card access to the room failed 90% of the time.

Review 127:Breakfast and food is above average. Comfortable room and bed. Service generally helpfull. Modern day version of "Crossroads Motel"

Review 128:I don't like the warm to cold breakfast, cold breakfast plates and the price of it.

Review 129:I like the Gym, the room, the cleanliness and the quite location.

Review 130:Stayed on the 1st floor, wifi very temperamental, wasn't a massive issue for me. Dinner menu very limited, more training needed for younger waiting staff - again not a massive deal.

Review 131:Immaculate and very modern room, Claire on reception was the dictionary definition of professional!

Review 132:Did not take the breakfast as at £11 per person I think it is very overpriced for breakfast. Could have done with a better selection of pillows. My daughter had 2 bottles of sparkling water in her room which was a nice touch, however I never had any in my room. Bathrooms are in need of a refresh as rather tired and dated looking.

Review 133:Decent sized room with nice modern clean decor. Nice wee bar.

Review 134:Breakfast was a pretty unpleasant affair. Food was great but due to 2 functions being on in the hotel the restaurant was too busy for staff to cope and too busy to enjoy breakfast.

Review 135:Decor, furnishings, room quality and staff.

Review 136:The keys were faulty for the door. Had to get them changed. The dinner menu wasn't great however about 5 mins away from lots of resturaunts and asda

Review 137:I liked the room. Beds were comfortable and toilet was nice and clean. The service from staff was great.

Review 138:Too hot in the room. We gah to turn off the heating & open a window for hours til it improved. The towel rail in the bathroom still kicked heat out uncontrolably. Could have done with a repaint in places. Bathroom door frame was tatty.

Review 139:Clean. We came for a funeral and asked for our rooms to be near each other which was arranged. Thank you.

Review 140:If you need internet access to work in the evening (as I did) then this hotel isn't for you. I was unable to update my email and the wifi drops the signal at least once every five minutes and has zero bandwidth when it does connect. I asked reception to re-boot it (clearly a regular process for them) but this made no difference whatsoever. I also mentioned it on departure and they acknowledged that they knew that the service is poor. Completely spoilt an otherwise OK stopover.

Review 141:Hotel was clean, quiet and comfortable

Review 142:Dirty plates and glasses left on table in the restaurant. Also on the tables outside. Bed very uncomfortable & breakfast disappointing.

Review 143:Very friendly staff and big room.
