“The Inn Collection Group's Alnwick property strikes a fine balance, offering genuinely comfortable and spacious rooms alongside a welcoming pub atmosphere that impresses with its well-priced beer and excellent evening meals. Mornings shine with an outstanding breakfast buffet, though keeping it replenished is key to its perfection. While the location might feel a touch removed from the heart of town, its proximity to the coast and straightforward access to the A1 make it a practical base for exploration.”
