Central pub with rooms.

A nice pub with rooms which is perfect for all the shops, pubs and restaurants in Stockton. Stayed on business so ideal - nice staff, easy quick check in and out. Parking is free after 5pm on the streets outside.

I love that we did not need to move the car all weekend. Theres 24 hour parking that cost us no more than 3 pounds and Sunday was free. Very welcoming and easy check in. Room was as stated and very clean. Tea and coffee available in the room. We went for dinner at the peking garden that I 1000 percent reccomend and did a pub crawl from the hotel around town. An amazing night out and our 24 hour access key back into the hotel proved useful! The shower was amazing! Super warm and powerful. Easy check out. Thank you the hoptimist for being affordable, clean and welcoming

One night stay in this loud hotel and constant noise all night outside. Booked as a stopover for my daughter and myself but got a call as we were on our way to the hotel to advise that there was Issues with hotels.com allowing children when this is for over 18s only. They kindly allowed us to stay as long as we didn’t go through the bar but to find out a couple of hours before we can check in wasn’t great. The room was very basic and the sink was damaged, the shower area was dirty and very dated.
