About Urban Escape by Victoria Gardens

Urban Escape by Victoria Gardens works well for families and travellers who'd rather drive than rely on transport links, thanks to free on-site parking and a central Sunderland location just off China Street. It also suits guests who want a bit of everything on their doorstep, with a restaurant, bar and games room at the property alongside a garden and picnic area for downtime between excursions.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks provided, and there's a kitchen and laundry service for those staying longer or travelling with children, with kids' meals available at the restaurant. Free WiFi and 24 hour reception cover the practical side of things, while the outdoor seating area offers a spot to unwind without leaving the grounds.

The setting puts Roker Beach and Sunderland Museum within easy reach, and there's no shortage of things to do nearby, from golf and fishing to pubs, restaurants and entertainment venues. It's a straightforward base for exploring the city and coast without needing to think too hard about logistics.

This family run establishment is honestly one of the best pubs I have been to in Sunderland, the ambience along with the friendliness of the staff makes it a great experience. I have also stayed here using the Airbnb app with an exceptional experience. Really enjoyed the couple of nights I stayed there and would recommend this players to travelers and locals alike!

Not the worst experience of hotel I've ever had. It's a local friendly pub, staff are well accommodating. However the rooms are not the best at all very dated and not the cleanest. It kind of reminds me of the place you go when your partners dumped you, your down on your luck and trying to punish yourself. There was still items left in beside draws from previous guests. The TV was not connected. Shared kitchen and bathroom. Cheap and not cheerful. But 30 quid each a night not sure what else was of expected from Victoria clean room would of been nice though.
