The property is impressive from the outside, cosy and comfortable on the inside. The staff are warm and friendly and welcoming. the facilities are good, lovely swimming pool nice bar and restaurant. The reason I have not given 5 star is 1. Temperature a little cool in the bar. 2. Toiletries in the rooms lacking considering the quality of hotel. 3. The bed was not re made although towels and water and tea coffee etc were replaced. So maybe they got distracted and forgot the bed. Not that I can't make my own bed but it is just something you expect when staying in a hotel. Otherwise lovely hotel with friendly staff. Bar staff are equally as friendly and nothing too much trouble.

If you stay at Dunston hall they will leave you complimentary dirty underpants, socks and dried contact lenses on the bedside table! you will also receive hair in your breakfast! Compensation - £50 Voucher to come back!! They have refused to refund me fully and after a long drawn out emailing battle they have agreed to refund £50 to my bank - I’m still waiting for this to be refunded.

Room very draughty due to breeze coming through patio doors, had to keep air con (noisy) on all night to keep warm. Unfortunately food not great this time - last visit food was much better and worth coming back for. All staff very professional being friendly and happy to look after everyone and listen to any complaint

Staff were so helpful and pleasant. Nothing was too much trouble and they really tried to make things as easy as possible. Being at the older end we didn't enjoy the Halloween disco in the bar but it was possible to find a quieter space and they went out of their way to accommodate us. Drinks were quite expensive but the food was reasonably priced. The breakfast choice and quality was outstanding.

Would not recommend
The hotel is old and tired. Check in very slow - staff clearly overwhelmed and unhappy. Breakfast was a shambles with nowhere enough food for the number of people present. A shame really because we paid good money for the hotel!

Overall good
Overall good stay :) we checked in at 3:40pm after a long day at the dinosaur park and unfortunately our room was ready which was really disappointing when you’re travelling with 2 children under 3 years. They did however, give us some drinks vouchers to use in the bar whilst we waited, but sitting around waiting is never easy with little ones! Once we were in the room everything was good and the room was spacious for a family of 4. Breakfast was from 7am which was great for us, and there was a great selection. Only thing we all struggled with was how hot upstairs was! We were on the third floor and the heat was just unbearable as soon as you got on to the top floor. Apart from the late check in and the heating, we enjoyed our stay.

The good - wonderful grounds and great looking building. This hotel is targeted at the golfer or the girls weekend away at the spa. The rooms are a little tired needing some investment. The restaurant- well that's a place you should avoid. Breakfast very British could have a wider selection like a omelette station or scramble eggs but that could be challenging! The main issue was on the first night I ordered a steak and a red wine sauce the waiting staff assured me was red wine and it looked tasted and smelt just like my wife's gravey!! We spoke to the red manager who then told me action on head office instructions the red was is just gravey!! The next morning talking to the exec chef in the restaurant he asked why I was creating such an issue as they had staff shortages and even supply chain issues. Not the reaction I expected. Later reading the Trip advisor reviews I found a couple of other reviews with the issues about gravy.

Dunston Hall let down
we had a family party, and there was a few things which I was not very happy about, the family booked a table for an evening meal months a ago, and we found out that the hotel messed up the booking so all the family could not sit together!!! i I had brought drinks and was over charged and this happened many times with my family group which is terrible service at the main bar, then my wife phoned up regarding there allergies which the hotel swore blind they could cater for her, they could not cater for her at all, so I had to drive out of Dunston hall to go and get food so again could not eat with the family, the staff expected my wife to eat bland food because they could definitely not cater for people with allergies, the staff came over with a folder that was so big to look at the allergies list with my wife!!! we are in the year 2000 surly they could update this list on to a tablet !!! in the room, the sheets were do old and when you moved I woke up my wife and vice averse! this place could be so much better, the only thing i can say is the golf centre personnel were excellent and they are the only thing keeping this place going, the staff at the golf centre were so helpful. I don't think the family of 15 will be having our gathering again at Dunston hall, in fact we should be re-inbust some money back for our stay and for all the family who had issues throughout the 2 days of our stay and for the one day I stayed, thank god I only stayed 1 day, never agin!!!
