    cozy room
    friendly staff
    tasty breakfast
    no tea/coffee facilities
    no draught beers

    absolutely loved my stay at houndgate townhouse! the building was super nice and really fit in with the whole vibe of darlington. my room was cozy with a fantastic bed, and breakfast was a treat with a lot of choices. gotta say, the veggie cooked breakfast was super tasty and so filling! the car park at the back is cheap too, just £2 for the night.

    only two tiny things bothered me, no draught beers available which was a bit of a letdown, and no tea/coffee facilities in the room, would’ve liked a cuppa in bed.

    Just an optimal selection for a two-day stay in Darlington with good price-quality ratio. Jake and Becca were fantastic and made our time enjoyable. Check if the restaurant is open as it was closed when we went.

    beautiful decor
    delicious breakfast
    lovely bar
    late-night noise

    We had a fantastic stay, enjoying the beautiful decor in our spotless room and the delicious breakfast featuring local produce. Relaxing in the lovely bar and checking out the garden area made our visit even better. The only downside was some noise from the outside late at night, but it didn’t ruin our experience at all. Don’t miss the eggs royale at breakfast! 👌

    great stay but slight room for improvement

    The staff displayed exceptional hospitality, making us feel valued throughout our stay. We enjoyed a delightful dinner and breakfast, with each meal exceeding our expectations in flavor and presentation.

    The decor in our room felt a bit dated despite its spaciousness.

    attentive staff
    spacious room
    high-quality breakfast
    warm room
    limited temperature control

    Houndgate Townhouse offered an impressive overall experience during my recent business trip. The staff were exceptionally friendly and responsive, ensuring all my requirements were promptly met. My room was not only spacious but tastefully decorated, providing a comfortable atmosphere for work and relaxation. The breakfast selection was outstanding, featuring a variety of high-quality options, including fresh juices and baked goods.

    The room could get quite warm without clear control over the temperature.

    tasty breakfast

    Just a solid choice for a day tour in Darlington, excellent value. The breakfast was really tasty and set us up for the day. Bring earplugs if you're sensitive to noise at night.

    delicious breakfast
    busy restaurant
    local eateries
    late-night noise
    disappointing view

    The dining scene here is a real belter! With Al Forno just a short stroll away, I had some ace Italian grub. The breakfast spread was top-notch, offering a proper feast to kickstart the day. The restaurant was buzzing, clearly a local fave for a reason!

    Only snag was the late-night noise from revellers nearby, but it didn’t ruin the fun. The view from my room was a bit dodgy, facing a car park, but it didn't dampen my spirits.

    delicious breakfast
    attentive staff

    Couples retreat that feels special

    The breakfast was like nothing I've experienced before, I mean they had everything you could ask for. And the staff were always there in an instant, like they could sense when you needed help.

    It wasn't exactly inexpensive but worth every penny, trust me.
