So happy I stumbled across this gem whilst looking for some reasonably priced accommodation for the Great North Run. The room was stunning, had all the facilities you could want for an overnight stay and was lovely and quiet. The bed was comfy, the shower was powerful. The staff were all really welcoming and helpful. I was leaving early but the chef made a lovely takeaway breakfast for myself and the other running guests.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. What impressed me the most was the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The reception team went above and beyond to assist me, especially when I needed a taxi. Despite the taxi booking system requiring a reference phone number, they used the hotel’s number, making the process hassle-free for me. The hotel's location is ideal—close to the Stadium of Light and not far from the station. The restaurant also served a delicious dinner meal, adding to the positive experience. Additionally, I accidentally left my bag at the hotel lobby, and the reception promptly took care of it, ensuring it was safe until I returned. Their professionalism and attention to detail made my stay much more comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel for its exceptional customer service, convenient location, and welcoming atmosphere.

The staff were all extremely helpful with plenty of smiles. Nothing was too much trouble. We were on a 3 night stay with dinner and breakfast included in our room stay. The food was of good quality and quantity, both at dinner and breakfast. The facilities in the room were as expected, and the room was clean and tidy.

We knew abought Houghton le Spring already.

We knew abought Houghton le Spring already. We needed to be in Stanley, Durham, and East & West Rainton so hotel was ideally situated. We used the in-house Restaurants & Bar on 3 nights and the Italian Restaurant across the road ! night.. There are bus routes outside the Hotel - I believe maximum fare of £2.00.

Very central for Durham City and surrounding areas.

Very central for Durham City and surrounding areas. Large free car park which was easy to manouvere. Hotel was lovely, rooms were large and well stocked with toileteries, hairdryer, iron on request which was brought swiftly to our room. The adjoining bar was well stocked with lots of different beers/lagers, wines etc. Food was available in either the bar or the Thai Resturant. Staff are very friendly very helpful, nothing was any trouble to them. Would not hesitate to return.

Set by the side of a busy country road in beautiful countryside close to the A1(M). Fabulous beer garden, plenty of parking and large restaurant. We stayed in a beautifully appointed room but unfortunately this was at the front of the hotel and the traffic was busy. To be fair, if we hadn't needed the window open so wide due to the warm evening then this would not have been a problem to us.

the hotel was ideally located for where my son and i were visiting and not far from the metro shopping centre. even though our room looked on to the A1 it was not that noisy. rooms were spotless and had tea and coffee facilities and also information book of local attractions near by which was very useful for us as visitors

I'm disabled and the Hotel catered very well for me. The whole area is a pleasure to drive around and the people are so friendly and helpful. We always ate in the Hotel, the food is SO good. The only thing to avoid is make sure your stay is long enough!

Now 53, I lived in Houghton le Spring for the first 22 years of my life, with many family and friends still living there. I can honestly say there is nothing for anyone in Houghton unless you are visiting friends or family. It's difficult to sum up a place in a few words, but with the single ATM in the town centre not working when we were there, most food outlets having a hand-scribbled note on the windows reading "Cash Only", and all closed shops on a night feeling the need to have steel shutters, sums it up for me. There are still lots of lovely people living in the town, but I really couldn't recommend it to anyone that doesn't NEED to visit!

The Three Horseshoes was a fantastic find. I was only on business for one night, but the hotel was close to the venue and pretty much perfect. The evening meal was excellent, as were the staff, who were helpful, polite and very professional. Bedroom was clean, quiet, and well appointed. I was on the road early, so didn't manage to partake breakfast, but the staff were kind enough to make up some food for me to take on the road. If returning to the area, I would certainly stay at the Three Horseshoes again.
