I found the hotel to be very convenient for a work stopover despite not flying anywhere. The room had a temperature issue but included excellent amenities at no extra cost. The service was exceptional, although it seemed like the staff were juggling multiple responsibilities. The location near the cargo airport could use some refreshing, but it's recommended for special events or anyone passing through Darlington. The dining experience offered a buffet-style breakfast but had some quality issues. Overall, a mixed but reasonably priced stay.

The tired-looking location by the cargo airport might not reflect its colonial charm, but it's suitable for various purposes and has easy access to the airport and nearby cafe.

The hotel could improve its facilities, especially the dining options. The bar needs more draught ales and a fresher menu.

The hotel room was very spacious and had all the necessary amenities like a TV, kettle, iron, and ironing board. Additionally, the hotel's history added a nice touch to the ambiance. The room was lovely, warm, with loads of hot water. However, the lack of information on sandwich fillings was a minor downside.

The facilities at the hotel were adequate, but there was room for improvement in terms of variety and maintenance. The self-service coffee machine was a nice touch, but the lack of a chef until 6 pm limited the dining options.

The hotel is conveniently located next to the airfield and offers a fantastic colonial feel. However, the rooms are a bit tired in terms of decor. The dining experience had some issues with the evening menu being bland, but overall, it was a nice short-term break.
