The Dirty Bottles Inn

Really friendly at hotel and nice setting x

Wonderful stay! The room is clean, the breakfast is great, the staff were nice and accommodating, the hotel is close to attractions. Will definitely stay here again.

Quirky Room but not practical for living in. Fabulous wallpaper, lighting, period portraits, bed and bathroom with old fashioned chain toilet. Large old shipping storage boxes at side of each bed but are unusable and nailed shut. 4 very small drawers and one small wardrobe for clothing, nowhere to put personal belongings much and toiletries had to be put on floor as no surfaces. Cleaner never cleaned toilet or bath during stay. Very hot room thankfully there was a fan. Biggest problem was no fridge for liquids so had to ask for ice bucket at bar. Breakfast was average, cooked full English had cheap ingredients but eggs well cooked both days ( I had eggs Benedict second day ) contential nice Staff friendly.

Let me start by saying that since we booked this last year, both the pub and the B&B have been sold and are now owned and operated by the Greene King pub chain. We had no knowledge of this change, as there was no update from corporate and when we told locals (who asked) where we were staying, were quite dismissive telling us what it used to be like. We were apprehensive and worried what our experience might be, but I feel ours was a good experience. And even though it is now marketed as a Harry Potter B&B, apart from the colours (our bathroom and curtains reflected Griffyndor colours and the wall paper was the marauder's map) we didn't feel it was in your face. B&B A restful night for all Even though in the centre of the town, we certainly enjoyed a good nights sleep for our time there. Four poster bed with matching furniture and a lovely en-suite bathroom. Fresh fluffy towels, plenty of hot water and complimentary toiletries, nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Plenty of choice for breakfast too!

Great location and brilliant harry potter themed rooms!

Smashing stay at the Hallow & Crux, room was fabulous. Harry Potter themed but very subtlety done with a grown up feel. This is actually part of the Dirty Bottles hotel which perhaps should be a bit clearer online? Also, website could do with showing that breakfast is included in the price. Staff very friendly and helpful Food good pub grub. Decent sized breakfast Small suggestion perhaps a stand/shelf in the Chamber’s bathroom for a wash bag? Alnwick itself was great for food and shopping. Lots of independent shops perfect for Christmas presents all very friendly
