Four of us (2 couples) just spent 3 nights & 4 days at Matfen Hall. The price of the room includes dinner and spa facilities, but book either of these months in advance if you wish to use either. No credit will be given if there is no availability. We were only able to have reservations for dinner at 6:45... more

I can't understand the negative reviews below. We stayed two nights for my wifes birthday (3 rooms in total) and the location, room, food pool and staff were all superb. We have stayed in many of the North Easts top hotels (Seaham Hall, Linden Hall, Redworth Hall, Headlam Hall, Crathorne Hall, Slayley hall) and rate this the best. All the... more

Went for a spa day at Matfen Hall Hotel on 30 May. It was a surprise for a friend's 40th birthday, and 4 of us paid £150 each. Approx. 3 months prior to going I asked the question was reflexology available and was informed that although they were having problems at that moment a reflexologist would be in place by... more

Stayed here one night during a mini-tour of the North of England. Our room was comfortable and well decorated, with pleasant views - and a very long way up and down stairs and along corridors from reception. It became apparent that the room had not been thoroughly cleaned or inspected: bits of paper and other debris under the side table;... more

We attended a wedding here. Had great expectations as previous reviews been excellent. Our room was in the old wing, rather tired-looking. Bathroom old, taps slow, with no mixer, shower goes cool all the time. Duvet too small for 2 people, rather like one and a half size! Breakfast poor - small selection, bacon too thick and salty, croissants not... more

Attended a wedding at Matfen Hall, and stayed for 2 nights. The Good - the Wedding - food, service, facilities and organisation were all excellent. The hotel room was very nice, excellent facilities and nice Spa and Golf course. The Bad - The Pricing of drinks & the “Charity donations” that appeared on bills without consent. The Ugly - The... more

Stayed for one night on business, I expected a better experience as I had been to a fantastic wedding at this hotel approx 5 years ago. Whilst I did not stay at the hotel during the wedding, I visited the room of a friend and it was very luxurious. This had built up my hopes for this business visit. The... more

I went to stay at Matfen Hall for my Birthday, after reading the good reviews on Trip Advisor and also looking at their website. We paid £170 for bed and breakfast and I must say it was a complete waste of money. I was firstly dissappoined by the room, we were a very long walk away from the main reception... more

The most perfect venue for my surprise proposal. Had decided on this place on the back of this site's reviews and it didn't dissapoint. Beautiful setting and friendly staff on first inspection. Then got better with our premier room (worth the extra for a special occassion), very grand with lovely views and probably square footage equal to our flat! The... more
