The hotel is an amazing conversion of the old county council offices, so it has character and style as well as the amenities you need. Wonderful food. And it's in the heart of the city with the Wear smoothly wandering by. Love it.

Hotel Indigo is a pleasant hotel in an excellent location for a lovely city. The hotel is a Grade 11 listed building and some of the rooms are dated, well used and a bit shabby. We had a cathedral facing room which had a pleasant view but was very hot on our arrival and took a long time to cool down. The sheets were grubby.

Warm, friendly greeting at reception on arrival. Parking onsite but would also be great if the hotel offered free or discounted parking. Spotlessly clean and comfortable room with high quality toiletries and complimentary minibar items. Stunning hallway, bar and restaurant. Welcoming and friendly staff in the bar and at breakfast. Plenty options at breakfast from the cold buffet and cooked to order options on offer but full cooked breakfast was tasty but not at the level expected when in a Marco Pierre White restaurant. Eggs Benedict on the day before was much better. All in all, a beautiful, comfortable and welcoming hotel. Would definitely stay here again/recommend to anyone coming to the area

Beautiful room, very considerately located when I said I had poor mobility. One small problem - there were no bright lights in the room at all - I understand that it creates a relaxing low light effect but actually it was pretty dark even in the middle of the day with curtains open and it makes it very difficult to actually see anything or read in ambient lighting. Need a bright side light for choice. Otherwise room was gorgeous and comfortable and stylish. Indigo is always our favourite choice in Durham. Very classy bar area and breakfast to die for :)

Greed over kindness in midst of am100mph Storm Amy. Made this booking as non refundable and tried to cancel it less than 5 mins after when my train was cancelled due to storm Amy. Expedia called the hotel, I called the hotel but the management’s greed triumphed over kindness. Frankly, in case of such inclement weather, I was shocked by the dryness and lack of support and sympathy. On top of total lack of kindness and understanding. All I asked for was ability to reschedule given I wasn’t going to be able to make it to Durham that day due to cancellation of all trains moving north that day. Computer says no. You’ll find no humanity in this hotel. Cold as ice.

A beautiful period building

This is a hotel with real character. Built as a civic building in 1905, the hotel owner totally renovated the guest rooms but retained the beautiful interiors along the corridors, in the restaurant, etc. In the guest rooms, there is a rarity -- lots of electrical outlets! Also, as this building was built solid, guest rooms are quiet -- you hear nothing from the next room. All the staff (check in, restaurant, cleaners) were very helpful and pleasant. I would stay here again.

Inconvenience spoilt it.

Greater location in Dunham, parking overnight was £20 but not highlighted when booking and limited
Hotel was good but waited over 30mins for room to be ready on a 15:00 check in, not ideal. Got 2 drinks for free but inconvenient as we had plans.
Breakfast was best part of stay. Would probably look elsewhere next time but I'd expect no inconvenience if went back.
