Reviews for Esplanade Lodge
Review 1:Location excellent - three minutes walk from the Metro station at Whitley Bay, and two minutes from the shore. The self-check in using coded box on front door was a helpful facility, as I couldn't give a proper estimated time of arrival. Room was a generous size, not claustrophobic like some properties with bigger rooms artificially cut into two by a flimsy wall. All sturdy and comfortable. Bed and breakfast - the two main elements of the stay - were excellent. Would definitely come again. Excellent value.
Review 2:access, had to mess around in the dark and phone a number on the door, didnt have credit on my phone so had to run around trying to find somewhere to top my phone up, tired after a long journey, but apart from that it was very good
Review 3:location to station
Review 4:There was no hairdryer in the room and the general standard is not as good as some other local B&Bs which are the same or lower priced. Breakfast finished at nine o'clock even at weekends.
Review 5:The bed was super comfortable and the room was spotlessly clean.
Review 6:It was further away than we thought from the relatives we were visiting. We were woken very early by people leaving and the window cleaner!
Review 7:A lovely cooked breakfast! A short walk to the sea front. Dogs are allowed.
Review 8:Some shower gel would have been nice.
Review 9:Brilliant value, good size room. Perfect location for friends birthday party. Excellent breakfast. Would happily stay here again and recommend to others.
Review 10:heating didnt work, internet out of range, no sitting room to sit in, and had clothes hanging up in the wardrobe on arrival
Review 11:big room .. comfy bed, wonderfull brekkie
Review 12:We had a room on the ground floor near the front door so could hear other guests coming in which isn't very nice when it's in the early hours of the morning! Poor shower ....barely warm water.In dire need of an upgrade.
Review 13:Nice breakfast
Review 14:Very friendly and welcoming owners, lovely delicious breakfast and nicely decorated, good size bedrooms and close to all amenities, I had a lovely stay.
Review 15:It wasn't a bad bed - but just not as comfy as my one last week!
Review 16:Good location - easy access to the Metro (and therefore the office), the local shops and the sea! I've been to a few places in the local area over recent weeks and this is the one that suits me the best - so far!
Review 17:This B&B is only some meters away from the coat and from the next Metro station (30 Minutes to downtown Newcastle). The host is very friendly, breakfast is good.
Review 18:Comfortable and convenient accommodation. We were attending a Classic Car Show on The Links and the Esplanade Lodge was ideal. Very comfortable bed.
Review 19:The hotel was fantastic and the owners were amazing made my stay very comfortable and guided me to the best way to travel around the area at the best cost
Review 20:Great location, close to the beach and close to the Metro station. Plenty of free parking, granted it is roadside. Not the Hilton....but that said superb value for money.
Review 21:Found nothing to dislike
Review 22:Room no.1 clean freshly decorated and was excellent especially with us having two dogs. It is not a four star hotel but what you pay for is good value for money and a very good breakfast. 2 Dogs no problem, enjoyed my 5 night stay.
Review 23:Found a few hairs on the bedding. Couple of towels were stained. Toilet was really loud when you flushed it, and you could hear toilet being flushed in other rooms. No toiletries provided, only hand soap. We were on ground floor so were woken up by people leaving early morning one day. Also room was close to kitchen and breakfast room so from 7am our room was filled by the unpleasant smell of fried breakfast. Not much other choice though, just cereal and toast (which was fine however). Came back on first day to find room had been left unlocked after cleaning. In general we didn't feel it lived up to expectations and found Whitley Bay to be a very run down and pretty depressing place.
Review 24:Close to the sea and centre, we were able to find parking on street close by. First impressions of room were quite good. Staff friendly. Recommend going to eat at Davanti Italian restaurant.
Review 25:I found a dirty blanket in the cupboard that had been used by a dog (full of hair); probably the dog of a visitor before I stayed in the lodge. Note; all other things and bathroom were very clean.
Review 26:good location, friendly people, flexibility towards our wishes
Review 27:Ringing up for access to get in, bathroom needs updateing, shower cubicle leaking, sealant black with mould, toilet roll holder hanging off the wall, macerator and drains require cleaning to eliminate smell.
Review 28:Location was ideal, change of rooms.
Review 29:May be wrong but wasn't sure the bed had been changed since the last customer. Sheets were wrinkled and there were lots of long hairs around - pillow and sheet. Didn't 'feel' clean! Also ground floor room by the front door was very noisy as people came and went during late evening no night. That can't be helped though!
Review 30:Wonderful breakfast. Individual tastes and needs catered for. Lovely staff. Free Wi Fi. Good sized room and really well and tastefully decorated. Fantastic value for money.
Review 31:Could not turn shower off fully, kept on running fast dripping. Had to lay shower head in shower tray for the night.
Review 32:Free wifi, good breakfast & pleasant staff.
Review 33:Little choice for breakfast - no fruit only cereal and no choice of juice, just orange.
Review 34:Very friendly and accommodating. Let us check in early and leave our car in car park so we could get the Metro into Newcastle. Spacious, well decorated, clean and comfortable room. Full English was very good.
Review 35:The extension cable for kettle not long enough and kettle base kept falling off the the chest of drawers.
Review 36:I liked the friendly staff and value for money. Tea and coffee and kettle provided.
Review 37:Great place to stay for the money. Very clean and tidy room, friendly owners and the breakfast smelt great but I didn't have time to sample it. Highly recommended.
Review 38:It had everything I needed so I could visit my friends' 40th wedding celebrations nearby. The owners were friendly and helpful. I was able to park off road there. The price was spot-on for my need.
Review 39:we arrived at the said hotel to find a unkept looking premises, no parking, overgrown hedge, noisy rd, my partner tried the door (locked) rand the bell, half a dozen times, kicked the door, banged it, tapped on the window, all while it was pouring down...
Review 40:Nothing

Review 42:electric toilet ground floor you have to get used to the brief noise.
Review 43:fantastic location handy for beach. lovely breakfast. friendly staff. clean.
Review 44:The hostess was great. We ended up arriving early and were able to leave our luggage so we could sight-see without dragging suitcases around for the day. Location was just down from the metro station and there were numerous restaurants in the area.
Review 45:Our preference would have been for curtains that blocked a little more light out but the in no way detracted from our stay

Review 47:Nothing.
Review 48:Recently decorated and very clean. The small room still had an ingenious en suite facility and was excellent value. The location is central for town, station and sea-front and is very quiet. The bed was very comfortable too.
Review 49:Don't rely on satnav! Went round in circles, ended up parking on a main street although there was a road right next to it I could have parked on, if TomTom had behaved ...
Review 50:Extremely friendly welcome, bright modern décor in an old house

Review 60:Nothing everything was fine
Review 61:The staff were great, friendly and accommodating. The room was clean, tidy. comfortable and warm. Radiator had been left on for our arrival. We arrived later than expected but this wasn't a problem for the owner at all. Didn't manage to get up in time for breakfast so can't comment on that but the staff again did give alternative times for breakfast.
Review 62:Even after a warning and big signs I banged my head walking down the stairs. A soft cover might help...

Review 71:Stayed here with some friends for a Saturday night, value for money was brilliant and included cooked breakfast which was great. No problems at all! Would definitely stay again if in the area.
