Great reasonable price for a quaint inn. Durham central was booked out for Uni week and we were glad we found this place as it had the best Italian restaurant I have ever been to - La Spada. …

We stayed here overnight in late July. Three of us shared a family room. It was clean, recently decorated, pleasant and more plenty of space, especially considering the very low price we paid for the room and breakfast. …

The hotel is primarily a restaurant and all the signage relates to La Spada Restaurant which is disconcerting. The restaurant is very smart and the accommodation is obviously undergoing extensive refurbishment.  …
