Hall Garth Hotel Darlington, Sure Hotel Collection by BW

8/10 Good

"Good stay if not for the fire alarm at 3"

Redworth Hall Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place, lovely setting. Stayed either side of the Great North Run. Staff were absolutely lovely, even got complimentary drinks when they found we'd just been running! :) Room very nice and spacious, comfy bed, only complaint would be that room was a tad warm for me, even with radiator off! Complientary entry to the health club as a hotel guest was a big reason we picked here, enabled a good soak and steam after running!"
