Reviews about the town house from trip advisor:
‘’Stunning
Amazing property, great staff, beautiful rooms, excellent location. Can't wait to go back! Breakfast was very tasty and the drinks menu was very reasonably priced for somewhere so upscale. Makes me think of Victorian elegance with 21st century luxuries!’’

Romantic anniversary stay
‘’We stayed here for our first wedding anniversary. It’s really handy for bars and restaurants as it’s right in the centre of town - we were visiting Zen to recreate our first date and it’s about a minute walk from the hotel! The room was lovely, with a four poster bed, bath, shower, TV and plenty of toiletries and complimentary biscuits. We loved the quirky decor and would return to try more rooms! The bar downstairs was handy and we would definitely try the restaurant in future. The staff were friendly and we had a fab stay!’’

Lovely Quirky Place
‘’We stayed at the Durham location. The staff were very helpful. The room was a comfortable, updated bathroom. We loved the decor! I had breakfast and it was top notch! Great location, easy walk to town centre. We would definitely stay again.’’

Although weddings at the treehouse don't seem to be publicly displayed anywhere, they do offer small intimate weddings and wedding services and have had fantastic reviews from guests who have hosted weddings at the town house.

Great wedding venue
‘’I stayed here with my partner the day before our wedding and my wife the night of our wedding. All I can say is that the staff could not have been nicer. Ben the manager was only too happy to meet all our requests, and insisted we should let him know if there was anything we needed. We stayed in the Russian Bride suite and it was the height of luxury and fantastic for the occasion. We also had a lovely breakfast served in our room. We had a wedding reception for 20 people and the food was fantastic and they managed to hold back serving at our request as we weren't ready at the arranged time. ALL the staff were wonderful and were always ready to be of help when needed but never seemed to be 'in your face'. I would recommend that you take the time to talk to Ben and discuss what you would like before going, he will do all he can to meet your needs.’’

There are also some fantastic reviews on their facebook page named 'The town house durham’

One guest posting:
Wow, I really enjoyed our stay ! Who would ever think this place was on our door step, the staff were very helpful, the Eden garden room was unreal, puts the Hillton to shame ! We will return, thank you x

With another guest commenting:
I’m not normally one to leave reviews but this place definitely deserves one. Nothing but good things to say. The partner booked it for us and we have stayed another 2 times since and booked again in 4 weeks time. The staff are really helpful and really professional. Not 1 problem since we have been. Rooms are always super clean. I would definitely recommend a stay there.

Guests tend to book the town house Durham as a luxury stay for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and a luxury get away. If you do wish to book for a luxury stay or to find out more about their intimate wedding packages, I suggest getting in touch with the town house durham directly as they dont have publicly advertised anywhere specifically about their wedding packages or pricing. I'm sure with the correct marketing the town house at durham could gain a greater guest appearance by publicly advertising each and every service they offer including the use of their hotel for wedding services they offer and host.

We loved the images, the quirkiness and the style of the rooms as well as so many great reviews and thought they were worth a share as a recommended venue. The town house in Durham offers hot tub rooms too. That’s definitely an added bonus for those looking for a local stay to completely relax and unwind with kind and caring attentive staff.
