About Great North Getaways

Walk into a room at Great North Getaways and you'll find an en-suite bathroom, drinks laid on, and space set up to suit families as well as couples. Free WiFi runs throughout, and there's a kitchen available for guests who'd rather sort their own meals than eat out every night. A 24 hour reception means arrivals and queries are never tied to office hours.

The hotel sits in Newcastle upon Tyne, within reach of the Quayside and the city's cultural attractions, with pubs, bars and restaurants all nearby for evenings out. Free on-site parking makes it a practical base for anyone arriving by car rather than train.

It's a no-frills option rather than a destination in itself, but for guests who want a comfortable room, easy parking and a short journey into the city centre, Great North Getaways covers the basics well.

What guests say

Clay Johnson

Great North Getaways, at 190 Portland Road in Newcastle, is the perfect base for exploring the city. The top-floor apartment, was ideal for our family of five. It featured two double bedrooms with smart TVs, a sofa bed, a spacious open-plan lounge-diner, and a modest sized kitchen. The location is excellent. We were literally within a 20-minute walk to key attractions like the Quayside, city centre, and St. James’ Park. Despite its centrality, the area remains peaceful yet lively. Free on-site parking (locked garage) and Wi-Fi added to the convenience, especially for teenage kids. Host Jared really stood out for his warm hospitality, offering helpful recommendations for local dining, attractions, and pubs. His attentive service enhanced the welcoming atmosphere of the stay. The bottled water and chocolates were a lovely touch too. I can't imagine we will ever stay anywhere else when next we visit. Great North Getaways provides a comfortable, well-located, and family-friendly accommodation option in Newcastle. Oh and did I say it's modestly priced too!

I stayed for a period of 5 months in one of Jared’s apartments. For the entirety of my stay, Jared was very accommodating and generous. Communication was easy, the apartment was gorgeous and professionally cleaned. I would recommend to anyone that is either visiting Newcastle for a short stay or has to stay in Newcastle for business for a long period of time.

Stayed at Jared’s property this year visiting from New Zealand. Couldn’t have been happier with the stay, close to everything you could possibly need, immaculately kept, rooms were spacious and well set out. Can’t speak highly enough of Jared himself, showed us around a few places that he recommended and then sent us on our way to the best restaurant in town. Absolute legend of a host! Don’t look anywhere else in Newcastle if you’re staying, book here!
