The hotel rooms were in bad condition. I asked for a refund and was told no, I then asked for a partial refund and I was told the manager would get in touch with me but 3 weeks on I haven’t had a response. I would not recommend this hotel.

We stayed here the night after the Great North Run, when the prices were significantly higher, which was somewhat expected. The hotel was fine overall, though there was noticeable wear and tear in the room, like broken tiles and worn furniture. However, it's not advertised as a luxury place, so this wasn’t a big issue. The location is great, with a nice view of the sea and plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. We dined in the hotel's bar area, where they offered two menus: one for the bar, mostly burgers with just one vegetarian option, and a restaurant menu with one vegetarian and one fish option. They allowed us to order from the restaurant menu while sitting in the bar area. I initially ordered the vegetarian option, but after 10 minutes, the staff informed me they were out of halloumi and couldn’t prepare it. Normally, I would have gone elsewhere, but since my friend’s food was almost ready, I chose the fish option instead. There was a £3 price difference, and I was surprised they charged me for it, considering it was their mistake. The food itself was quite nice, though we didn’t stay for breakfast.

Although this hotel has been refurbished since my last visit, it was much brighter, but i was disappointed with the cheap, creaky beds....so uncomfortable. The decor was ok in room 213, but there were crumbling patches on the wall beside the window.....unsightly. The shower was decent with nice white towels. Food was good and reasonably priced. On a positive note, the staff were very friendly.

Five Stars. First Class.
All the reviews that say that Sea Hotel is old, dated, unclean ARE ALL FAKE. I am very difficult to please but I found Sea Hotel exceptionally clean, new, fresh, refurbished. Comfortable mattress. New towels and linen. New plush carpet in my room. Neutral colours, white and grey. Refurbished bathroom. No dust anywhere in my room. Brand new shiny kettle. Sea Hotel South Shields is the best Hotel in the UK. Engaging with the staff was very pleasant at check in and check out. They used my name in talking to me which was very nice. Well done Sea Hotel.
