Our hotel offers outstanding eating and drinking experiences in the form of our brand-new Cast Iron Bar & Grill and Paddy and Scott’s Coffee Shop. At Cast Iron, we serve up big flavour dishes packed with fresh, seasonal ingredients as well as a wide selection of craft beers, wines, local spirits and creative cocktails. We’ve partnered with BrewDog to bring their great tasting beer and passion for sustainability to the people of Durham and serve a range of draft beers, bottles and cans from a pop-up bar on our outdoor Terrace, which is the perfect place to spend warm summer days and nights. At Paddy and Scott’s, artisan coffee that gives back to the community in which it is farmed is served in bold, eclectic surroundings perfect for meeting, working, studying or relaxing.

Our hotel provides a stylish and unique backdrop for any meetings or special events. We have five versatile, light-filled spaces and with our delicious catering and expert planning services, you're assured a successful and memorable event.
