“George Hotel, with its riverside setting on the Tyne and gardens, struck me as a relaxing base for exploring Hadrian's Wall and Hexham's cathedral. I particularly like that they maintain some of the charm of an 18th-century inn while providing modern comforts, including a leisure club. The focus on local dining seems a genuine advantage here.”
