Perfect small break
Amazing night . You could easily spend more than one night here . Very self contained . We didn’t even bother to eat in the restaurant the room was so large and comfortable. We opted for room service which again was to a high standard.

Our room looked nothing like the room we thought getting & nothing like the pictures we were shown. We were put in a upstairs room that we had to climb stairs too. Kettle station was there but no plug socket had to get on my knees to move it by the bed. Whole room was on a slope so wardrobe doors constantly fell open. 1 bath towel between 2 for 2 days . Bed so low was difficult getting in & up.

The Roker Hotel is is our favourite hotel in Sunderland and it's the one me and my partner keep coming back too each year. It has a prime location by the sea and it's easy to get out to Durham, Newcastle or the surrounding area. The beach is just a short walk away, and has some lovely coffee spots and restaurants on it. The Stadium of Light is also in walking distance if you are vising to see Sunderland play. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The on-site bar is also really good!

Bad checkin but niceish hotel
Check in took a long time. The website offers free room upgrades when available but we were told this wasn’t true. We then had to argue that this was what was advertised and we weren’t willing to pay the money to upgrade if it was advertised as free. This was embarrassing and we had to wait 20 minutes and show the wording on the booking for the receptionist to speak to his manager and confirm that we were right and give us the upgrade. The computers then crashed and we had to wait again for this. Completely not the receptionists fault but hotels fault. He couldn’t apologise enough for the inconvenience of the long wait but in the stress of the situation forgot to give us vouchers for drinks and explain about bar tabs etc. which were explained later. Website advertises multiple restaurants including an Italian, which is amazing but not actually affiliated with the hotel and the receptionist tried to convince us to use their restaurant instead. Weird. Italian was 10/10 and would definitely recommend. Bed in the room was very low. Anyone with nobility issues would not be able to get up and down off the bed. Room as spacious and furniture okay but signs of wear/damage on furniture and bedding. Carpet was lumpy and a trip hazard between the bathroom and the bedroom. Plastic cups rather than glasses which was again a bit unusual. Poetic license bar was nice, barmaid friendly and helpful and there was a good choice of drinks available. Comfy seats and a good view.

The Roker BW Hotel is a reasonable hotel with decent rooms and a very nice bar/restaurant area, which has very good prices. My issue was with the room i was allocated, where I had to walk up one floor, then walk along a long corridor then diwn to flights of stairs to access my room! This process was in reverse if you were to return to the reception or front entrance/exit. I thought this was totally unacceptable and easier access/ egress should be provided by the Roker BW Hotel, not very convenient!

Very disappointing for the following reasons. Room very small.water cold on shower, however fixed on reporting. Need to consider where you put guests when functions are running/ occurring. Noisy with doors slamming and guests involved in party running up and down corridor shouting. Doors need to have soft close. Think about replenishing the tea/ coffee even if the room not cleaned.

The room was a flight of stairs to the first room , a long a corridor down two flights of stairs which were narrow . Through a heave door only to find the steps down literally as you open the door and then three stairs up to the room . All very narrow and difficult to carry bags . I was asked if I needed help but the main stair case was fine if I had been made aware of how far the room was away I would have taken it . Staff very friendly

Limited options for vegetarians in the hotel restaurant. Very noisy if you did choose to eat there with a DJ playing loud music in the bar. Coffee in the room and at breakfast was dreadful, please change the brand. Room was nice, but not particularly clean, our view was of an air conditioning duct and the back of a building, bathroom was clean.
