The Spotlight on Crowne Plaza Newcastle - Stephenson Quarter

Riverside Comfort Just Minutes from Newcastle's Top Venues

Modern and polished with a touch of luxury, Crowne Plaza Newcastle - Stephenson Quarter sits right on the scenic River Tyne. This upscale hotel blends sleek interiors with a welcoming vibe, all within walking distance of Newcastle’s buzzing nightlife and major concert venues. With a full-service spa, stylish rooms overlooking the city, and a brasserie-style restaurant, it's a solid home base whether you're in town for a concert, a football match, or both.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything — and this hotel nails it. You're under 15 minutes on foot from Metro Radio Arena and even closer to Newcastle Central Station, making late-night transport a breeze. After the show, the quiet riverside setting is a welcome retreat. The 15:00 check-in gives you time to settle in before the night kicks off, and while check-out is at 11:00, the calming spa, gym, and steam room are a great way to recover post-gig.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends – spacious rooms and a fun on-site bar make this a great base to pre-game or wind down together.
  • Solo travelers – feel safe and pampered with 24/7 front desk, spa, and room service.
  • Couples – city views, plush beds, and a cocktail lounge set the tone for a romantic concert weekend.
  • Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space – the riverside location and spa vibe offer calm after the chaos.
  • Budget-conscious music fans – while not the cheapest, the value is strong with quality amenities and location.

Food and Drink Options

Hawthorns restaurant serves up hearty Northern dishes using fresh local ingredients — ideal for fueling up before the show. The Gin Bar crafts gin-based cocktails and classics, making it a great pre- or post-gig meet-up spot. There's a full English buffet breakfast for those who were out late, and 24/7 room service has you covered if you roll in hungry at 2am. Nearby Quayside restaurants offer even more dining choices within walking distance.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, you’re only a short walk from Newcastle’s best clubs, pubs, and live music spots. Whether you're into indie gigs, jazz lounges, or classic pubs, it's all within easy reach. Prefer to chill? The hotel’s Gin Bar is a stylish, relaxed option for nightcaps with local flair.

What People Say

Guests rave about the clean, modern rooms and friendly, professional staff. The location near the train station is a major plus, especially for concert-goers. Many reviewers highlight the spa and pool as the perfect way to unwind. The city views and comfortable beds also get frequent shoutouts.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention the parking is limited and can be pricey, so consider arriving by train if you can. Spa access can get busy at peak times — especially weekends — so plan your recovery soak accordingly.

The Bottom Line

With a prime location, stylish comfort, and relaxing amenities, Crowne Plaza Newcastle - Stephenson Quarter is a top pick for concert-goers who want to stay close to the action without sacrificing sleep or style.

Lovely weekend

Liked: Stayed for 3 nights and would love to stay for more, I will be back. The room was cosy, good aircon, lovely comfy bed. Didn't try the pool or evening meal so can't comment. Had breakfast in room one day, price is a little high but it was tasty and you know this before you order. The Gin Bar provides food where we ate a few times. Staff throughout the hotel very helpful.
Disliked: Not enough info on the parking situation. Parking is in the Stephenson Car Park. Park on level 10 and there is a pedestrian access to the hotel level. We had to climb up and down a lot of stairs to get there as we didnt have this info.
