WHAT WE LOVE...

The Grey Street Hotel makes an ideal base for a weekend in Newcastle upon Tyne. Housed in an elegant Georgian building, it gives you easy access to the city centre's many attractions. Just a few minutes' walk away you'll find the Theatre Royal and independent cinemas, covered shopping arcades and bustling markets, museums and historic buildings. Though some of Newcastle's best cafés, restaurants and bars are right on your doorstep, you can also dine in at Leila Lily's, as well as enjoying a pampering treatment at the on-site City Retreat Spa. Rooms are light and often spacious, with high ceilings and large windows. The hotel's staff are welcoming, friendly and bursting with local recommendations.
