Just off the A1 in Gateshead's Lobley Hill, Embassy Newcastle-Gateshead, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western puts the whole of Tyneside within easy reach. On-site parking makes arrivals painless, an adjoining pub and restaurant covers dinner, and Newcastle city centre is a ten-minute taxi ride away, or around 30 minutes by public transport. For business travellers, the Team Valley Trading Estate sits right on the doorstep.
Gateshead and Newcastle reward exploring. The Angel of the North rises just up the road, while down on the river the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art and the curved glass of The Glasshouse International Centre for Music anchor the regenerated Quayside. Cross one of the bridges on foot at dusk, when the river catches the lights, for the view that defines the city.
Football fans can reach St James' Park in minutes, and the open-air history of Beamish, plus Durham and Sunderland, all lie within easy striking distance. Settle in, then head out to discover why the North East wears its character so proudly. Book your stay at the Embassy Newcastle-Gateshead, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western.
