What guests think
Reviews of Bailiffgate Hotel consistently praise its scenic location opposite Alnwick Castle, modern comfortable rooms, and friendly, welcoming staff, with many highlighting spotless cleanliness and a relaxing atmosphere that makes short stays and special trips feel easy and memorable.
Food and breakfast are widely enjoyed, though a few guests found breakfast underwhelming or the dining room lacking ambience, and some felt restaurant prices were high. Facilities like bars and the courtyard are popular, while some mention steps up from the main car park that could challenge some visitors. Isolated minor maintenance niggles and occasional busy periods or training gaps were noted, but overall experiences remain strongly positive. Expect a polished, comfortable stay well-suited to castle visits and short breaks.

Modern hotel across from Alnwick castle provided comfortable rooms with everything needed for our 4-day stay. The highlight was the friendly and helpful staff. Food was good but the dining room was rather more cafeteria in decor - lacked ambience.

Superb hotel in perfect setting right next to the Castle and a short walk into Alnwick town centre with its full range of shops and restaurants. We had a wonderful stay with friends and being a new hotel (opened in May) everything felt fresh and well presented. Staff were friendly and helpful. Especially the two girls working on the bar in the evening. The bar itself is a perfect way to start the evening and classic cocktails were excellent. The breakfasts were superb too. A bright open dining room with excellent continental buffet and table service of hot choices. My wife and I (and couple we were with) can confidently say that this hotel is one of the best we have stayed in the UK. The price point is also fair and reasonable. Only potential issue (not for us really) is the steps up from the main car park (62). Depending on age and mobility this could prove an issue to some. However, with drop off at the main door of the hotel (bags and less able visitors) I am sure to most that this would only be a minor inconvenience.

Beautiful new place. The room was very nice, shower very spacious. Had afternoon tea here as well and it was delicious, with a great view of the castle. You can relax with hot or cold drinks outside in the courtyard after a day out. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

Lovely hotel, right next to the entrance to Alnwick Castle. The hotel itself is lovely, with helpful and friendly staff, lovely rooms (exactly as described on their website), nice relaxing bar. the perfect place for a weekend getaway. We were there for two nights and decided to eat in the restaurant on our second evening. The food was delicious. My wife and I shared the Chateaubriand and it was cooked perfectly. The breakfast the next morning was also fantastic, with a great choice. The Kipper Hash was a particular favourite of mine. We will definitely go back as there are lots of lovely places to explore in the local area

Beautiful hotel with a idillic location beside Alnwick castle and a short walk from the town centre. Room was spacious and luxurious and loved the tick down service at night. Bathroom modern with Jo Loves toiletries and enjoyed the coffee and shortbread on the terrace. The different bars all offered something unique but the Garden Room looking at the castle was my favourite. Lovely attentive staff.

The hotel is situated in a quiet corner of Alnwick overlooking the castle and yet only 5 minutes away from the town centre. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We shall definitely stay there again.

The room is clean, beautiful and homely and the views are amazing. Breakfast was awesome too and the location is right opposite the castle. The whole of the town is flat so really accessible. We only stayed for one night and we wish we'd have been able to stay longer!

Great 2 night stay at Bailiffgate. Tracey checked us in and was very helpful and welcoming, even helping with our bags (we arrived late in the evening) up to our room. I’m disabled so it was very helpful. The hotel is beautiful, an elegant modern extension to a period building. Very comfortable king bed, super bathroom with a walk-in shower. Wonderful breakfast. The hotel is right by Alnwick Castle and Alnwick is a very walkable town with lots of interesting shops.

Within 5 minutes of entering this hotel, myself and my partner both agreed that we would be back. This hotel is absolutely stunning and the staff can't do enough for you. The room is clean, beautiful and homely and the views are amazing. Breakfast was awesome too and the location is right opposite the castle. The whole of the town is flat so really accessible. We only stayed for one night and we wish we'd have been able to stay longer!

The Bailiffgate hotel was a delight. An elegant, charming yet relaxing place literally steps from Alnwick Castle. The room was clean and beautifully appointed. Would definitely stay again if ever back this way.

Beautiful hotel with a idillic location beside Alnwick castle and a short walk from the town centre. Room was spacious and luxurious and loved the tick down service at night. Bathroom modern with Jo Loves toiletries and enjoyed the coffee and shortbread on the terrace. The different bars all offered something unique but the Garden Room looking at the castle was my favourite. Lovely attentive staff.

Modern hotel across from Alnwick castle provided comfortable rooms with everything needed for our 4-day stay. The highlight was the friendly and helpful staff. Food was good but the dining room was rather more cafeteria in decor - lacked ambience.

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at, food was delicious, staff were friendly and helpful. Very quiet hotel, right next to the castle. Everything was beautifully decorated, would definitely recommend!

Superb hotel in perfect setting right next to the Castle and a short walk into Alnwick town centre with its full range of shops and restaurants. We had a wonderful stay with friends and being a new hotel (opened in May) everything felt fresh and well presented. Staff were friendly and helpful. Especially the two girls working on the bar in the evening. The bar itself is a perfect way to start the evening and classic cocktails were excellent. The breakfasts were superb too. A bright open dining room with excellent continental buffet and table service of hot choices. My wife and I (and couple we were with) can confidently say that this hotel is one of the best we have stayed in the UK. The price point is also fair and reasonable. Only potential issue (not for us really) is the steps up from the main car park (62). Depending on age and mobility this could prove an issue to some. However, with drop off at the main door of the hotel (bags and less able visitors) I am sure to most that this would only be a minor inconvenience.

Beautiful new place. The room was very nice, shower very spacious. Had afternoon tea here as well and it was delicious, with a great view of the castle. You can relax with hot or cold drinks outside in the courtyard after a day out. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

Very modern and clean hotel right opposite the castle. Nice and quiet rooms, very comfortable beds. Staff were attentive, but a little busy at times. Good food in restaurant but a little pricey.

Lovely hotel, right next to the entrance to Alnwick Castle. The hotel itself is lovely, with helpful and friendly staff, lovely rooms (exactly as described on their website), nice relaxing bar. the perfect place for a weekend getaway. We were there for two nights and decided to eat in the restaurant on our second evening. The food was delicious. My wife and I shared the Chateaubriand and it was cooked perfectly. The breakfast the next morning was also fantastic, with a great choice. The Kipper Hash was a particular favourite of mine. We will definitely go back as there are lots of lovely places to explore in the local area

This is a really lovely hotel perfectly situated near the centre of Alnwick. It has a a really relaxing atmosphere and the staff are brilliant. Wander a short distance out into the centre of Alnwick to browse round the multitude of artisan shops and stop for a drink in one of the welcoming pubs. Return for an excellent meal followed by a nightcap in the cozy bar. The only minor downside is the number of steps from the car park to reception although luggage can be dropped off at reception before parking your car. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

This is a new hotel. The location is opposite the castle and 5 minutes walk from the town centre. It has a private carpark with EV chargers. Room was great, new and well equipped. Staff were friendly. We had breakfast and dinner at the hotel and both meals were of a good standard. Fully recommended .
