Loved by Victoria Inn guests
"Funky place with lots of charm - rooms over an honest-to-goodness old-fashioned pub with logs burning in each fireplace."
"Comfortable quiet room above a characterful Victorian bar!"
"Really enjoyed the stay! Friendly staff and locals. Extremely clean room. Cosy homely pub and entertaining Folk night."

Location
Such city attractions as the Prince Bishops Shopping Centre, which is in proximity to this inn, and the Statue of the Marquess of Londonderry, which is 1.3 km away, are well worth a visit. The 10-hectare Durham University Botanic Garden is also located 15 minutes' walk from the Victoria Inn.
This 4-star hotel lies within reach of the resplendent monument "Durham Cathedral".
The property is just 1.6 km from Durham train station, while Durham Tees Valley airport is 38 minutes' drive away.

Offering fusion dishes, The Rabbit Hole is 5 minutes' walk away.
“I think the Inn's strongest suit is its seamless blend of historical charm and vibrant social atmosphere, notably through its cozy pub. Expect clean, comfortable rooms, and the added bonus of on-site parking - a true find in Durham. Its location is ideal for exploring the cathedral and city center.”

The bed was quite comfortable. A proper kettle meant I could make a decent cup of tea. Hooks are present on the bathroom door. A car park was available, I was very pleased.

Authentic Inn Experience
helpful staffclean roomconvenient parkingfriendly locals
I found the staff helpful and very friendly . The room was clean and all expected amenities in a larger hotel were available. Parking was convenient. I also enjoyed meeting locals in the bar downstairs. The experience was quite enjoyable.
I noticed the room had quite a few cushions on the bed. They took up too much space when removed at night.

Excellent Stay Near the Cathedral
free parkingclean layoutconvenient locationamazing pub
The hotel's free parking was a definite advantage. My room had a spacious, clean layout that I appreciated. The location proved very convenient to the cathedral and the city center. The pub downstairs had very kind people (I enjoyed it).
The room's window did not fit very well.

a somewhat underwhelming stay
non-functioning radiatorlarge spiders
the room i had felt a bit dated, i must say. the radiator didn't seem to work at all, so the room was quite chilly, especially at night. also, i found some rather large spiders lurking behind the curtains. i really didn't appreciate that.

A Satisfactory Stay
friendly stafffree parkingroom hairsshelf location
The staff helped us a lot. They showed us to our room immediately. They also pointed out the free parking area. The pub downstairs provided a good atmosphere and also friendly service. We enjoyed a drink there.
I did notice a few black hairs in the room. They were near the kettle and on the bed. The bathroom sink had a shelf above it. This made brushing teeth difficult.
