The conceirge, Keith, deserves a special mantion, being so friendly on arrival and very helpful during our stay about local amenities etc. I was very impressed that you provided soya milk at breakfast.

Good Points: Free parking. Very attentive and helpful staff.
Bad Points: I prefer to have a separate shower rather than one over the bath. The water pressure and temperature was very good, but the shower curtain was difficult to keep in place.
Further Comments: I enjoyed my stay, but I would expect breakfast to have been included in the price of the room at the level of charge you are making.

Further Comments: information provided by active hotels was very accurate, and if anything the hotel was better. whilst at the hotel many guest that i had the privilege to speak to equally found the hotel exceeded their expectations. My personal opinion is this is the best hotel in Newcastle, and therefore i would not hesitate to recommed the vermont hotel to friends and family

Good Points: everything
Further Comments: i would have liked to have know before booking the accomodation that our reservation was in place. As when we arrived at the hotel they had no reservation for us and we had to pay for the room again, in order to secure our stay for the night.

Good Points: Excellent Location, very clean hotel
Bad Points: No air conditioning, close to railway line, room decor a little dated
Further Comments: Excellent quayside/city centre location, friendly staff, great sunday late check-out option. Our room was nice but fairly small, the castle view was excellent but close to the railway line which was noisy when the window was open but not too bad when shut, however air conditioning would have been good. Overall however, very good.
