Leonardo Hotel Newcastle Quayside in Newcastle

Less than a mile from the Geordie Shore's buzzing Quayside area surrounded by a fabulous selection of bars and restaurants, Leonardo Hotel Newcastle Quayside is a stunning starting point for a special weekend in Newcastle. The ideal location just outside of the 'toon centre means you'll be within dancing distance of all the best clubs, but you won't be woken up by party goers stumbling home in the small hours either.

You can treat the bride-to-be to a delicious dinner out on the Riverside Restaurant's terrace or order the evening's first cocktail in the stylish lounge bar. If you're feeling a little bit worse for wear in the morning, the hotel has its own Costa Coffee shop for that much-needed caffeine dose.

The 24hr front desk can point you in the direction of Newcastle's best shopping spots if you're planning on leaving a little extra room in your suitcases for a bargain (or two), there's also a luggage store and (limited) parking. This hotel really has all the details covered, leaving you free to relax and enjoy the weekend as it unfolds.

The spacious air-conditioned bedrooms include TV with Freeview channels, hairdryers, tea/coffee facilities and complimentary toiletries. When it's sadly time to go home, the nearest train station is within hangover-friendly walking distance.
