We stayed on a Saturday night. Dinner was excellent, homemade fair price. Definitely recommend reservations for dinner. Breakfast was enjoyable, staff was pleasant and the conversation with other hotel guests allowed us an opportunity to meet the other hotel guests and gain the insights of their home countries. This stay is highly recommended.

Absolutely top recommendation for The Bowes Hotel! Everything was perfect, great room (Pottery Room for us), great staff, great beer, great food, great location. Absolutely nothing we did not like apart from leaving. A first visit which I really hope will not be our last. Great work by the team here.

From our friendly welcome, where we we recognised from our previous visit a few years ago, to our farewell when we were virtually waved off, it was a great stay. The room was clean, well decorated and so warm, to see the frost and ice on our car when we opened the curtains, was quite a shock. The bed was soft and comfortable and we both slept very well. Breakfast, mine the full English, my wife, porridge, was excellent. In every respect we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will happily go again when we visit the Hexham area.
