Want to go again

I really enjoyed my stay here. I was travelling for business so had little time for site seeing but the area was beautiful. Hotel was spotlessly clean and the food was amazing. Clearly run by someone who wants to provide excellent service. If I visit the area again this is the first hotel I will try to book.

Lovely stay.

Lovely room. Very hospitable hosts and other pleasant guests. Bit of a problem with hot water but hosts very quickly addressed it. Credit to the new owners, they did everything they could to make us welcome. Thank you.
Daniel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

an interesting building with a rich history overlooking a beautiful old bridge very conveniently located to visit the roman wall and forts. The new owners Jim and Susan who are upgrading the building are most hospitable, welcoming, friendly and helpful.

I would have preferred more choice of food in the evening. The American diner food was very tasty but not really what i wanted.

Unexpected find

Intriguing spot Haydon Bridge and if you want to try it out the Anchor is the perfect spot to stop off. The hosts were warm and welcoming and nothing was too small to help with. Room was clean, smart and beautiful view of the river ask for this. Food was good pub grub, my Chilli beef was better than average for a pub. Would go back.

Hadrian's Wall trip

Comfortable bed. No heating on so room was quite cold in the morning. Excellent breakfast. Good service.

Very tired hotel

Pleasant staff but very tired hotel room in need of modernization. Strange breakfast; everything looked like it had been in the deep fat fryer - including the bacon! Could hear adjacent occupant snoring the walls were so thin.
Ian, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible service, no communication, and the Anchor Hotel certainly is a sinking ship, AVOID!!
Chris, 1-night trip

Friendly and welcoming.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The linen and towels beautifully white. Bed could do with upgrade and carpet. Bit disappointing evening meals were not available. Hotel on the whole has character and with a bit of tlc could be a goldmine.

2/10 Poor

Meal ordering was haphazard. I ordered a starter of soup but it did not arrive. I asked for a glass of water to go with my meal; I was asked if I wanted ice, I said yes please but was given a small glass of tepid water with no ice, on one of the hottest days of the year. At breakfast, I took some Bran Flakes but when I got to my table and started to eat them, I found there were nut flakes in them. I am allergic to nuts. There was no warning on the Bran Flake dispenser that nuts had been added. Also, the cooked breakfast consisted of a very small hash brown; one and a half small mushrooms, half a rasher of bacon, an adequate sausage and a fried egg, which was going cold by the time it arrived (also most hotels these days ask if you if want fried, scrambled, poached etc). Finally, although the room and the bathroom in general were clean and tidy, there was huge amounts of disgusting soap scum on the shower hose and on the bottom and behind the concertina shower doors, which cannot have been cleaned for months, if not years.
Andrew, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disappointed

Very disappointing stay. Very tired needs lots of things doing to it to bring it up to a standard. Bed squeaked if you moved, bathroom door hit the toilet seat when you opened it, shower door broken, paper cups for your tea/coffee, paper plate for your toast.cob webs over the windows. Would not return.

Badly let down by the mattress!

This hotel was very reasonably priced, so we didn't have high expectations, and were happy to put up with it being a bit tatty, we just wanted a cheap base to start off our trip around Northumberland...however, the one thing we didn't expect and couldn't put up with was the mattress - I actually didn't know mattresses that bad existed - there were springs poking out all over and it was almost impossible to sleep on - in the middle of the night, we actually considered sleeping on the floor and were only put off by the carpet being weirdly sticky in places. We'd booked for 2 nights, but left after the first one, bought an air bed and slept in the van - which was much more comfortable. if it wasn't for the mattress I would have given this hotel a reasonably good rating as I thought it was OK for the price - although the room was a bit tatty and in need of updating, the staff were friendly, the room was clean, and the breakfast was decent. The building actually has a ton of character and sits in a nice location - it could be lovely with a bit of a makeover. For the time being though - at least get new mattresses - people are throwing better ones in skips - you could probably get one for free!

Quirky hotel. Lovely friendly staff in both the bar and at breakfast. Very good cooked breakfast.

Good location for local exploration

Booked for one night to explore the area, hotel was great, nice location, nice bar, most of the staff were friendly and smiley. can only offer an option on my room, unfortunately the bed is the most uncomfortable I have slept in.

Clean and tidy, well situated for Roman Wall and fishing, plus a great full English breakfast. Would stay again.

2/10 Poor

No food available when arrived at 6.30pm after travelling 6 hours. No chef available, bar staff lady said food MIGHT start 8.30pm, owner not in till later. No lift, room on 3rd floor, no-one to assist with luggage. Reception on first floor, no other people there - they must have known how awful it was. Expedia should review keeping this awful hotel on their books. Even local people have since advised not to use it. It was so awful we found alternative accomodation.
Paul, 1-night trip

The room was a little tired and could do with a spruce up. The bed was comfy though.
