Great location and ideal hotel

I stayed at the Delta for one night with my husband whilst visiting our son at Durham University. The location couldn’t be better as it is just across the bridge from the Bailey. Our room was very specious, clean, quiet and comfortable and we will definitely book again.

The room we were given was in a strange house outside the hotel. The fixtures and fittings were dated and the mattress protector was a bit lumpy. The room was quite dark too.
