I have stayed in this hotel previously and had a nice room in the extension part of the hotel - this time i stayed in the main building and the standard of the room was exceptionally poor. Stained carpet, which was uncomfortable to walk on, small monitor size TV, no desk to work on, room size was like a box,... More

This is a really beautiful building with great access to the A1, and within walking distance of the main shopping centres/ highstreet of Darlington. Location is perfect, the decor and cleanliness is spot on - despite the bathroom being a little dated. Our room was a little small but the quality of furnishings (real wooden sleigh style bed), flat screen... More

We stayed here for a 2 night weekend break to relax and just get away somewhere not too far from home. The hotel staff are very helpful and friendly; the room was small but nice; the bed is firm but comfortable. Bathroom could have done with a bit of maintenence/upgrading but was clean and fit for purpose with super shower.... More

I stayed at this hotel for the first time this week when visiting the area for business. The hotel is a very impressive building and the staff I interacted with (reception check in & out, bar and breakfast) were very polite, professional and are a credit to this establishment. What disappointed me with the hotel was the lack of detail.... More

The location of the Bannatyne is hard to beat. It is centrally situated just a few hundred yards from the town centre, about half a mile from the train station. The premises are very old, being the original Immaculate Conception School until the 1960's when it became the Grange hotel. The hotel has been extended in recent years and the... More

I arrived in a very wet Darlington after a long train journey and took the short ride to the Bannatyne Hotel. It was therefore refreshing to be greeted by two very cheerful and helpful receptionists for whom nothing was too much trouble. I was offered help with my overnight bag and to be shown to my room.
