We only stayed one night but the staff were courteous and friendly.The food was well prepared and the rooms were clean and comfortable. A safety mat in the bath for use when showering would be helpful other than that no problems.

Tired hotel, terrible breakfast service

Stayed in room 111, large room and bathroom but looked out to a brick wall. Room was upstairs, across the corridor and back down some stairs! The was a dirty towel left at the side of the bed. Beds were comfortable and good shower. Breakfast was terrible! Went down around 9.30 and there was nothing left, I asked for more bacon and went back twice before it was replenished. No plates or cups left, very poor and disappointing. Nice large outdoor seating area overlooking the sea

Very Ropey Roker Hotel

I find it very difficult to understand how The Roker Hotel is rated as a 4 star Premium hotel. At best in relation to accommodation it's a 2 star. The room we had was very small with a very small bed. It looked dated and the carpet was terribly stained. The quality of furniture was very poor and storage was minimal. The bathroom was fine. My route from reception to my room was the worst I've ever experienced. No lift and 3 seperate flights of stair carrying a case and I'm 72 years of age. Nobody at reception warned me and my wife of the difficulty of the route or offered porter support to carry the cases. The staircase rails were dusty and the corridors justfelt and look unclean. Bar staff were very pleasant and the free drinks vouchers were welcome but overall this was very disappointing accommodation and although I visit Sunderland at 3 times a year I will not use this accommodation again.
