Scary from the outside, looked like it was faling apart, but great surprise once inside, completly renovated, good kitchen, nice beds, 2 bathrooms, code for going in instead of key. Voted the best stay of our holiday by the family (stayed in 7 different places).

Thought to date back to the 1770s, Houndgate Townhouse provides an elegant setting for luxurious en suite accommodation in central Darlington. With a restaurant, bar and lounge, it also offers free Wi-Fi and room service.

Hotel: With only a few rooms it is a rather small, very personal hotel. Everything is nicely done and it rather feels like coming home, than checking in. It is very clean, modern standards and has all facilities you might need, such as sewing kit, ironing board, blow dryer,… it’s all there. We needed adapters for continental plugs - no problem - got three! The beds (we had room 5 with two separate beds) are great. Long enough for a 6 foot person, not too soft and not to hard, with a fluffy blanket a good nights sleep was guaranteed! But the best was the service. The team is as friendly as it can get. Everyone is looking after giving you an easy, pleasant stay. Restaurant: the included breakfast is great. You can hardly ask for more. We also had dinner at ‘Saltfish’, the restaurant at the hotel. The food is very good and so is the variety of offered dishes. They serve non-fish as well as vegetarian. There is also a small bar, but we didn’t try any drinks.

    It's cheap and cheerful. Stayed here numerous times over 7 years and naturally looking a bit 'tired' (aren't we all‽) but basically a nice hotel in a super location. Spacious free car park. Good bus service into the town centre. Tea and coffee making facilities in room and kitchenette available if you bring your own food, although a very decent chain pub/ restaurant literally next door. As a budget hotel, I would recommend.

    I recently rented a house that exceeded my expectations. The bathrooms were modern and spotless, offering a luxurious experience. The house's location was ideal, close to amenities like markets and restaurants. The landlord's warm and helpful nature made my stay even better. Overall, it was an exceptional experience that I'm looking forward to repeating.

    Only stayed for one night, but an excellent night it was. The general feeling was quite welcoming. The room looked out onto the main road but was surprisingly quite and dark enough for sleep although I would have preferred darker. Very clean, very tidy complete with an on-suit shower/toilet which itself was spotless. The rooms are above a bar so early nighters may well have a little background noise to deal with but all in all highly recommended.
