We had a really nice stay at this hotel. Very comfortable bed, helpful staff. Great location and plentiful parking.
The pool is not great for kids in all honesty, it is mainly grown ups swimming lengths who glare at you even if you stay out of their way. But perhaps we did not choose the most optimal time. The gym is great and the leisure centre staff very friendly and helpful.

The room was a river view upgraded room that was very spacious. Breakfast was fabulous with a large variety of options available and always being replenished. They seemed a little understaffed as the hotel was exceptionally busy as it was the Miners Gala weekend and many attendees were staying at the hotel. There was even a brass band playing which was tremendous.

Room was big and the bed was big. Very clean throughout. The walls and headboards were a little tired looking. Our first room had faulty air con and on our last night we were given another room. We got a 30% refund for the nights we had no air con. The screen casting worked well in our first room but didn't work in the new room we moved to and the engineer, while very polite, didn't understand the issue either. The bar, breakfasts and staff were very nice.

Hotel was of excellent standard, room was very comfortable, breakfast was good and hotel very well presented.

Only minor issue was rolling back in the hotel around 10pm and hoping to grab something to eat, we didn't expect the resturant to be open but hoped we could have something light or even room service in the bar. I was with a friend who lives locally and wasn't staying in the hotel.

The staff I guess were trying to be helpful in their own way but were keen to share it was hotel policy that no food is consumed in the bar. We asked if we could not order room service (the kitchen seemed to be next to the bar) and just have in the bar, no! We even asked if we could have room service and bring back down, no!

We asked for a room service menu, that took ten mins due to a shift change! We were then told there was only pizzas and would take more than 30 mins!

All seemed a little obstructive and in the end we ordered McDonalds and took to the room....

probably against hotel policy

Okay but very corporate and a disgrace you have to pay £15 to park in their carpark overnight. Ridiculous it’s £16 each for breakfast or £29 for room service breakfast for one?? Drinks extortionate - £16 for small wine and a pint??? Get a grip folks! Wetherspoons is just the other side of the bridge - greed will be your downfall

There was plenty of choice for breakfast and the quality was good. The staff were lovely also.
My only minor niggle and it is minor weight only got two tea bags in the room. (I'm a big tea drinker) I'm sure that if I had asked more would have been provided. Plus usually in hotels you get a little biscuit on the tea tray which there wasn't.
But a bonus tick in the bathroom was individual shampoo and conditioner and shower gel.
More than happy with my stay thank you

Disappointed not to have a twin room that I specifically requested at time of booking as was travelling with my grown up son. Was told 100% full on arrival (nearly midnight) but that there was a sofa bed in room. Got in there and that wasn’t made up and didn’t look fit to take a 6ft man or be comfortable to sleep in with my bad back. Eventually got a call saying a twin could be cleaned & made available- why that wasn’t the case in the first place I don’t know. The carpet near the bathroom was damp underfoot-think the ill fitting shower door allowed water from a previous occupant to leak out.

Great hotel with spacious comfortable room although decor is a little dated and signs of wear and tear were apparent. Minor niggle was that I could seem to get the normal UK TV channels on the TV, BBC, ITV, Channel 4 etc. It had Internet TV with loads of channels but not the main UK channels for some reason? Had to use iPlayer on my laptop. I did try iPlayer on the TV itself but the video kept buffering so I guess the internet wasn't up to it. As I was only staying 1 night it didn't really affect my stay that much.

Standard room had view to back of building, so private and quiet. Not possible to adjust heating, so too stuffy at night. No fridge or biscuits in room.
Bathroom had very good shower and lighting.
Sufficient storage and hangers in room, but limited sockets and had to plug in kettle next to tv.
Breakfast was good, but could do with more coffee machines.
Parking reasonably priced and directly behind hotel.
Swimming pool a big bonus, but the bins were full and needed emptying.
I would stay here again as it is so convenient for visiting Durham, and for parking. The staff were also very helpful.

Short break for a birthday. From the moment we arrived we were well looked after. Our room overlooking the river was very nice, somewhere to hang the towels etc in the bathroom would have been a good thing. The spa was good and clean throughout. The food in the evening in Josef's Restaurant was very good and plentiful and there was a good choice for breakfast in the morning too. Overall the staff were very good and we would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for a stay in Durham. Looking forward to returning.

This is the first time we stayed at the Radisson Blu and found almost everything spot on; our check in with Katie and the amenities and service all met or exceeded our expectations. The only exception was when I ordered new potatoes, chives, and butter in your restaurant only to be given dry new potatoes. No problem, the next night was your Indian food night, so we went elsewhere for a delicious dinner at Holi's.

Beautiful modern hotel in a great location overlooking the river.
Massive room with huge bed , nice buffet breakfast and easy to park although £14 for 24 hrs which is not bad really.
5 minute walk to the city centre over the footbridge outside the hotel.
We didnt use the spa and pool but it was included in the price which was £96 minus the £50 tesco voucher so great value .

The spa pool area was good and easy to use. The only negative is you have to walk through reception and the bar area to get to it which is a little uncomfortable when wearing your dressing gown.

The hotel location is great, easily walkable to the town centre and also the train station. On the negative side we found the room on the warm side, and opening the window did mean that we were subject to traffic noise and sirens during the night. The positives were that the spa is a great asset, just to be able to go and spend a bit of time relaxing even if you don't have a treatment. The highlight was the breakfast though, literally everything you could ever want was laid out!

The room was clean- unfortunately the first night we were put on 2 single beds made up as a double but no solid base so it was uncomfortable, but as soon as we raised it with Alex on reception it was sorted and we ended up in a newly refurbished room- which are really lovely! The bar area and lobby is good, and breakfast was superb. Again all staff helpful and accommodating. Pool, sauna, steam room and hot tub all great- busy when we went at lunch time but could still get on everything. Ice and water dispensers on every floor a good touch. Based on the stay once we got in the second room we would definitely stay again.

We didn’t have breakfast here so I can’t comment on that. I chose this hotel as a treat rather than a budget hotel option for myself and my fiancé for a night away. I was disappointed with the room- it was very tired looking and dated. Stains/marks on the carpet and curtains and the room itself just wasn’t particularly modern looking. I slept badly as the air conditioning didn’t seem to work properly and the pillows were awful with no extras available. I wished we’d chosen a budget option instead. The only things that were good were the actual lobby area looks lovely and the staff within it were polite and helpful. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else to stay here

All very good. I was given an accessible room (which I didn’t need). Lovely, up to date, modern and very large.

room service didn’t answer the phone - tried several times. had to go down to order a sandwich. Bar doesn’t sell crisps or nuts

Christmas dinner was absolutely disgusting. Roast potatoes were anaemic- i think they’d been roasted for two minutes max. sprouts like bullets. pigs in blankets looked like they’d been boiled. horrendous

Superior room was a basic bedroom. Clean and adequate but expected more. No fridge or minibar, poor signal on tv (picture and sound kept breaking up) and the safe at floor level is not easy to access when you’re in your mid seventies. Ordered room service meal - after an hour phoned reception to be told that order had not been passed on to kitchen. Overall, disappointed with the hotel - expected better when paying over £200 per night.

Kettle didn’t work well. Heating kept resetting to high and very time we entered the room. Charged for the car park for a function where it was free. Staff very “not my problem” speak with reception. Breakfast had to ask for multiple items to be replenished from foot to crockery.

Nice hotel, great area. Wouldn’t recommend the breakfast, it was average buffet fare and not worth the extra £21, you’d be much better finding one of the great local cafes to eat

No shower gel or shampoo (not even hand wash which is simply unacceptable these days) in the fitted bottles attached to shower and sink areas, didn’t notice until I was getting washed which was very inconvenient, rooms not maintained very well, empty receptacles which is quite unnecessary in hotel rooms these days, more like a budget motel room, dated and needs attention, horrendously over priced for a cheap dated room with very basic refreshments and tired room, worst Radisson I have ever stayed in, although staff were fabulous both at reception and the bar. Understand you’re paying for location, but no Radisson usual flare, thin old pillows, slim single beds, towel, although clean, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were purchased circa 1990s.

The hotel was in a lovely location, but not a great experience overall. We had a draughty room as the window mechanism was broken and so it could not be closed. One of the lamps also had damaged cable - obviously not checked in a while. The food in the restaurant was mediocre, but the restaurant staff were friendly at least. Guests deserve a better experience from the Radisson.
