I heard really good things about Ramside hall but when I arrived my expectations were lowered. Upon arrival, the staff were great, couldn’t fault them. When I got to the room, the room wasn’t great, lights didn’t work, wardrobe was absolutely full of dust, coffee stains on table, carpets stained and there was also stains on the walls. I asked for the room to be checked over, which they did, when I went to the room the second time everything was still the same as before. Was very disappointed, won’t be going back again.

Lovely stay

We had a lovely stay at the Ramside during our recent trip to Durham. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the facilities were amazing. The spa was lovely and the three restaurants to choose from were all brilliant.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE

We booked our stay at Ramside Hall as it’s an ideal spot to stay whilst visiting family, unfortunately we had the most awful experience, there was a wedding being held there which we was unaware of until we came out of the restaurant on our first night and was bombarded with groups of loud women and lots of children running around, we then decided to find a quieter area of the Hotel to sit in, when going back to our room and during the night when trying to sleep some or all of the group of loud woman and children were staying in rooms opposite ours, the noise and banging of doors seemed to go on for hours, the second night was even worse as it was the evening of the wedding party, more continuous noise and banging of doors which was still happening at 4am which then led me to ring reception to ask if they would tell these people to be more quiet and show some sort of respect to others, these people were still continuing to be so loud and rude the next morning at breakfast so we decided not to eat ours, we will not be returning to this hotel as it’s been such a horrendous experience we still can’t get over it, one of the managers did say he was sorry but when we checked out the girl on reception didn’t have the decency to apologise just asked us what we had planned for the day she clearly knew how upset we was. It’s not the staffs thought but they should however think very carefully where they decide to select rooms for visitors not near very loud disrespectful people.

Room was brilliant, definitely opt for the premier rooms, spa was okay. Feel like for the price of the rooms you should be give full access to the spa not just the 25m pool, sauna and steam room (which was always very full for the 1hr access you get.

Ramside

We had a spa day which was fabulous and then stayed over. We chose to eat in Charcoa restaurant on the evening. I ordered mince and dumplings and my friend Salmon. The food had obviously been there for sometime. Both meals were cold as were the vegetables. We sent them back and ordered a pizza which was cooked fresh. Everything else about the stay including breakfast was very good.
