Beamish Hall Hotel, BW Premier Collection

I have attended 3 weddings now at Beamish Hall and whilst the food layout and service during the meal is exceptional what seriously lets Beamish Hall down is the bar. When paying over £4 for a pint of Fosters you do not expect it to be totally flat. I brought this to the attention of the bar manager and she said there is nothing she could do about it so i had to revert to drinking bottled beers. The other issue is bar staff there were 100 guests so you would expect more than one bar person on occasions it was increased to two however at the evening reception they did bring in more barr staff. So please Beamish Hall sort out your bar and flat beer as it really does detract from an otherwise great service less

Our party stayed for a week and we were made to feel very welcome. Beamish Hall dates back to the 18th Century, so it is not a purpose-built hotel - rooms are of different sizes and styles. The breakfasts were particularly good - freshly cooked and a marvellous selection, served by helpful, smiling staff. Dinner was a little more challenging in a busy restaurant, but was generally well received. Again, helpful, friendly staff. The setting, in it's own extensive grounds, is peaceful and stylish. A gym and swimming pool would really be the icing on the cake. Would definitely visit again. less

Booked a premier room, bed breakfast and evening meal package. Premier room was gorgeous, lovely large jacuzzi bath, extremely comfortable bed, and lovely and clean. Evening meal in the stables was very nice. Breakfast was delicious, husband had the traditional Northumberland breakfast, I had the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Staff very friendly, always smiling found them very helpful. Looking forward to booking again. less

We visited the hotel to attend a wedding reception, staying for two nights. The check in was quick and efficient. This hotel is housed as the name suggests in what was a country house. It is an absolute maze, with passage ways and stairs in all directions. There is a small, make that very small, elevator which starts and stops with in a very abrupt manner. It was surprisingly warm during the first day of our stay and this made the room unbearably warm. There is no AC but the windows do open and a small fan was provided. The room we had was on the second floor facing the parking lot. It was on the small side and the furniture showing signs of age. Whilst not within the control of the hotel it is worthwhile noting that there is no cell phone service in the hotel or most of the grounds. If you were to go to the stable bar and then up the hill behind it reception could be found. The breakfast was excellent and well served. Hotel staff were first rate, everyone we met or dealt with went out of their way to be helpful and welcoming. less

Smooth checkin Room was nice, facing the Car park and part of the garden. Unfortunately mattress is not the best as they were too soft for us. Breakfast service at the restaurant was very good. Staff were attentive and efficient, consistently checking with us if we need any assistance. Impressed they they actually remembered what we ordered the day before at breakfast as well. less
