“Lovely place”
+Great place to stay, very clean and cosy, central to anything in Alnwick really. Tea, coffee, even hot chocolate and biscuits in the room. Lovely little living room downstairs, with a selection of DVDs and books and phone chargers (which is great if you misplaced yours, like I did). Would definitely recommend.
−Parking isn't straightforward. Yes, you can technically park at the Plough Hotel, but the car park is at the back of it which you can only access through either an extremely narrow alleyway (that I didn't fancy putting my car through) or an alleyway with a very tight corner at the top. I opted to park in a public long stay car park (Greenwell Rd Part C - 24 hour parking, no disc necessary) and had no issues, so I would recommend that.

“Good for a short stay”
+The location, clear instructions on how to get in; parking for free very near (across the street), experience the unusual room with a snuggle room for tea/coffee the lobby on the ground floor where you can rest and eat.
−Main concern was the bed, it was just not comfortable for us, not a dislike but it is a little bit inconvenient to have toilet & bath outside the room;

“Lovely place, be wary of room 2 and having others above you!”
+It was a great location for access to all the restaurants and sites in Alnwick. The property was very clean, absolutely spotless and really nice decor.
−There’s no way to control the heating and it came on at odd times, 8:30am when we had just got out the shower so we’re really hot and then cold at night going to bed. It’s noisy, they must know this as they provide eat plugs. It’s on the Main Street so it’s expected to get traffic noise. On the Saturday night there were lots of drunken people outside and the people in the room upstairs were making a lot of noise until 2am, even with earplugs I couldn’t get to sleep.

“Great place to stay”
+Lovely building and the room was very clean. Super easy walk into town and there is a lovely pub across the road.
−I did get woken up from people arriving late. I’d recommend booking the top floor to hear less stomping on the floorboards.

“Lovely and close to town.”
+Lovely place to stay, immaculate and easy to get in and close to town. Room was comfortable. Stayed on 3rd floor. Parked in Plough opposite.
−Do have to come out of room to use bathroom and balcony, but it was no bother and bathroom well equipped and again immaculate.

“I have done that above”
+The location was great, the room was good with good facilities (probably too many biscuits!!). The parking worked out well even though I had some concerns. I've rated staff as I did, because I didn't encounter anyone (which was fine) but there was no option to say this on the rating scale. I would definitely stay at Tate House again - thank you!
−Nothing really

“It was ideal for one night but if we came back to Alnwick for a longer stay I think we’d opt for somewhere where breakfa”
+Lovely big room, in a fabulous location close to all amenities. Nicely decorated. Clear check in instructions.
−A few minor marks on one of the sheets. I’m sure they’d been washed but it looked like they hadn’t been fully removed. Check in efficient but very impersonal.

−Just one tiny observation, the warning sign for the snug steps could do with being mid height not at ground level , I missed it the first time I opened door, other than that our short stay was fabulous. Thanks.
