Crowne Plaza Newcastle - Stephenson Quarter

The Crowne Plaza's Stephenson Quarter location is uphill from the River Tyne. We didn't catch the fog on our visit, but we found it to be a nice place to stay, offering an accessible room, a restaurant, and a bar. It's a little out of the way from the town's bars and restaurants, with only a few nearby. However, it is an 8-minute walk from the train station. The downside is the parking, as it is not free for Blue Badge holders in the adjacent multi-storey, and on-street parking is limited.
