Lovely short stay. The bar staff were lovely. The reason for 4* rating is that the chamber staff didn’t do a thorough job of cleaning the room.

The Hotel Indigo is full of character and charm. It’s very conveniently located for Ciy centre activities. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. One small improvement would be better lighting in the bedroom area, it’s quite dimly lit.

The room was very cold and only heated through a warm air duct which was incredibly noisy. We were woken up in the night with all the clanking so decided to turn it down and be cold rather than suffer the noise all night. After breakfast we returned to a room that had not been made up properly. Pillows still on chairs, my nightie scrumbled on the bed still strewn with the info guide. The water had not been replaced and the cups had not been cleaned. We had booked a meal at the restaurant which was not busy. After giving our order we waited 45/50 minutes for our steaks. When they arrived i noticed that the tomatoes advertised in the menu were not there. I queried the waiter who said he didn't think they were on the menu. When he returned he came with the tomatoes... The breakfast was standard fare, though my eggs benedict yolks were solid rather than runny. We normally go to the travelodge when we vist family in Durham but thought we would have a festive treat after a difficult year. It certainly was not the 4 star boutique hotel which we had expected.

Another lovely stay.
This is our favourite hotel in the UK/ We always receive a warm welcome. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Lovely comfortable room, tasty breakfast and we like the little cafe next to reception. Only negative on this occasion was the problem with the televisions not working. Management know about the problem and really need to sort this quickly.
