Great Decor and Reasonably Comfy

We mostly enjoyed our stay here! Loved the decor of the "lobby"/restaurant. The patio was lovely as well. The food was pretty good, and most of the staff was friendly. It's not Harry Potter themed at all despite the name, wish they at least had some sort of butterbeer variation on their menu, that'd do well given Alnwick Castle being so close by! Speaking of which, the hotel is a bit of a jog from all the sights to see in Alnwick so prepare to walk a lot, use a car or use the hotel bus if its during tourist season. The immediate surrounding area of the hotel is not very charming (gas station, business parks, fast food, highway) so you won't be hanging around there very much. The young lady that initially greeted us was a bit gruff and not very friendly, but the gentleman later in the day was very friendly and helpful. There was no air conditioning (that we could find) in the room, but we were able to open the window and that helped a bit.

Decent breakfast with lots of good options for a variety of palettes. Reasonably situated near Alnwick castle. Sainsbury’s and M&S within walking distance and Aldi if you’re up for a longer walk. Tea/coffee and biscuits in the room were a nice touch. A microwave and mini fridge would be a great addition. Better ventilation in the toilets is a must !

Alnwick week

It’s a great location with large comfortable rooms and comfortable bed. The restaurant and bar service was poor due to lack of staff to meet needs of busy bar & restaurant. Very busy and noisy M1 close by, with fast EV charger nearby

Good short stay hotel

Just off the A1 near Alnwick, though not close enough to stroll into town. Reasonable rooms although a bit too hot for comfortable sleeping. some traffic noise if you opened the windows. Good for overnight stay with superb help yourself breakfast with fresh orange juice and good coffee. Pillows on the bed were a bit hard.

The hotel is very conveniently situated for touring the Northumbrian Coast and villages. Situated just off A1 it is quite noisy outside but once inside, there is no traffic noise. The room was a good size and very clean. It was also well equipped. The hotel is also very dog friendly , although I think £15 per night, per dog is a bit on the high side. Not keen on the Self-check in, its always nice to be welcomed at the reception desk when arriving but that's a personal preference. The staff were very pleasant and friendly. Menu options were a bit disappointing for vegetarians but I didnt starve! 😂

short stay holiday

Very pleasant staff, if anything needed it wasn't a problem. Breakfast was very good, plenty of choices. We ate in on an evening ,but menu was limited, a choice of salad dishes would have been nice instead of chips with nearly everything. Overall a pleasant stay.

Great hotel for exploring Northumberlands best

The Hogs Head Inn was a great place to stay to explore Northumberland, with convenient bus and train connections to the beach and historic sites. Staff were very helpful, the breakfast was ample and delicious as were dinner selections. I will seriously consider related hotels when returning to the UK.

Would definitely stay again!

We thought the rooms were very clean, practical and the beds were very comfortable. As a party of two couples we thought that the only two things we thought that could be improved on were the signs leading to check in from out side the building and also that the breakfast times were highlighted on a larger sign. When we booked in we were very travel weary and did not notice at the check in desk a small sign saying that breakfast finished at 9.30am. Most hotels have breakfast finishing at 10.00am. Inevitably when we turned up for the buffet breakfast at 9.20am, most of it was gone. However, it was centrally placed for the areas we visited and we would definitely stay again!
