Hotel Jesmond reviews

5 Star Review by Elisenda Vergel gonzalez

It is a really nice pub, specially for Lunch time when it's quiet. The staff is nice and friendly and the food (quality-price) is so good. My partner loves the pumpkin pizza and I fall in love with the mushroom burger. The fries and sweet potato are really nice as well. Also, they have big screens for bets, smoking area and 2 pool tables.

5 Star Review by MsKoshe

The food here is wonderful, real wide range of choices. The staff are very friendly and the outdoor beer garden is great for summer. Pool tables and a large screen for sports. Such a great pub, thank you!

Best pub meal I've ever had. The ravioli was silky smooth and hubby highly rated the pork chops.

5 Star Review by Bon Cleaver

Nice selection of beer and local wines, delicious burger and friendly staff. We sat in the patio section, lots of hanging plants and natural light.

5 Star Review by Suchet Shenoy

The location is great and close to lots of amenities. The rooms were ok with common toilets and showers. The AC in the room wasn't great but we stayed only for a night and it wasn't a hot day. On hot days it might be an issue. Also has a pub Downstairs which has a good ambience.
