10/10 Excellent

The room was comfortable and quiet. Staff were welcoming and the breakfast was great. We ate at the pub on a couple of evenings. The food was excellent. Would highly recommend.
Robert, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Food great. Stairs may be difficult for some. Lovely views across countryside from room Nowhere to walk from hotel as on a main road with no pavements. Lovely staff .Would definitely book again.
Diane, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Staff very friendly & welcoming. Lovely room with lovely views. Noise from fan on roof was a bit annoying as needed to keep windows open as it was very warm The greenish cushion covers on bed could do with a freshen up as the body odour from a male was quite obvious. The food was very good but portions are massive. Might be an option to offer a smaller portion. Apart from these small issues it was a good place to stay.

Jean, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the friendly service. It’s a charming place to relax for a bit. The food was okay—not the highlight of the visit, but still a pleasant overall experience. Worth a stop if you’re in the area.

Carol, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Fabulous accomodation, service and food

Lovely queen bed, clean, hot powerful shower, large room with tv, fabulous cooked breakfast included in very reasonable room price. Excellent food menu and large portions at fair prices. We will stay again when visiting Durham. We tried to go back for sunday lunch after our checkout but the car park was completely full reflecting how popular the three horseshoes is. A very enjoyable 2 night stay and there was a lot more on the menu we would have liked to have tried. Next time!

My go-to hotel in the North East

I use The Three Horseshoes ever time I am in the North East on business. Very friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms and lovely food. The restaurant can get busy which is testament to the quality of the food and beer.

Lovely stay.

Lovely pub with rooms, fairly local for park & ride into the city, ate in the bar & the food was great. Charlotte & Hannah the girls on duty during our stay were a great credit to the company.
