Featuring 2-star accommodation, Fenham Hotel express is located in Newcastle upon Tyne, 1.5 km from St James' Park and 2.5 km from Newcastle Train Station. The property is situated 2.5 km from Utilita Arena, 2.7 km from Theatre Royal and 4 km from Northumbria University. The hostel features family rooms.

I was supposed to stay in a shared dorm but instead I got a whole room to myself which was comfy. The bathroom was very clean. I think the bed was quite small for a single room but overall I was satisfied for a budget hotel.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Hostel bottom floor has a bar which is a fantastic social spot, brilliant staff, and they do a top quiz night! Great location was just round the corner from the main bus station. Secure lockers in the room.

    The receptionist was so polite. Got clean room, comfy bed, cheap price, great location, what else I could have ask for. It did the job for me and will recommend it to give it a try if you look for budget options.

    Really great place for solo travelers! I have never felt so comfortable and safe in a hostel. The staff was really nice and helpful. The room and the ensuit bathroom were cleaned everyday. Overall a really nice place even for longer stays. Decent breakfast. Great location too. There were no issues when I asked to stay for another week, and they even made sure I was able to stay in the same room.

    Everything you would need in a hostel. Cheap and great location, female bathrooms weren't busy, there were sockets in the room and in the lounge where there was a tv and you could use the property internet. I only stayed for one night and it met my expectations
