To be avoided if you want a normal night 's sleep! I stayed one night in this hotel overnight for business. At 00:45 hrs (!) I was woken by the receptionist (with her desk 5 floors below) in my room (!) to check whether I was actually in my room, as she had discovered that 'the Hotel computer system had... more

I have stayed at the Marriott Gateshead a couple of times for conferences and cannot really fault it. The staff are friendly and helpful, the restaurant and bar serve very good food, a good selection too. Service is quick as can be, they do get inundated at times but there are plenty of staff. Rooms are spacious and well presented... more

I enjoyed a very relaxing stay here - the room was a very god size, the bed was blissfully comfortable and the staff were extremely efficient and helpful. The location is a bit out of the way but ok if you have a car. The leisure facilities were also ok too - the gym was a very good size and... more

Wow, This hotel has to be seen to be believed, the rooms are massive, the bed was the best I have ever had in a hotel, it was amazingly quiet, bearing in mind the A1 London - Edinburgh road passes very close to the hotel, great for shopping with the metrocentre just over the road. The fitness facilites were top-notch,... more

The hotel was quite a long way outside the ciy centre, about a £10 taxi ride, that apart it was pretty good. The reception was quiet and the staff courteous and helpful. The breakfast was the usual buffet arrangement but well cooked and presented. The bed was huge but a bit on the soft side, nevertheless I slept well. All... more

I use this hotel regularly and it feels like a home from home. The rooms are spacious and the staff always helpful. It's in a great location - quick walk away from teh Metro Centre/10 mins drive from Newcastle. If you book far enough ahead you can get good deals on the Marriott website. It's a big hotel but it... more

My second stay at this hotel - hasn't changed much since my last visit a few years ago. The location is great - just off the A1 at the Metro Centre. Plenty of parking available - enough to go round even though the hotel has conference day visitors parking there. The hotel has a gym which seems to function as... more

We stay at this hotel every three to six months and normally things are great but this time I had a few niggles but I guess it is my own fault as I didn't complain or make a fuss. We arrived before 10am on a Saturday morning and asked if our early check in was available and it was. Room... more

We have stayed here many times by ourselves and with 2 boys and always had a great time. Once we arrived at a few minutes after 2pm-our room was not ready so we were given drinks on the house! This time though we had no shampoo! Not a problem as we had some but annoying. My husband checked out a... more
