The Spotlight on Mercure Newcastle George Washington Hotel Golf & Spa

Relax, Recharge & Rock Out Near Newcastle

Modern comfort meets countryside charm at the Mercure Newcastle George Washington Hotel Golf & Spa. Just 6.8 miles from the heart of Newcastle, this stylish hotel offers the best of both worlds – a peaceful retreat with easy access to major concert venues. Set in lush surroundings, the hotel boasts an 18-hole championship golf course, a revitalizing spa, and all the essentials for a laid-back yet convenient stay.
Whether you're in town for a big gig or a weekend escape, this hotel offers a welcoming base with a touch of luxury.

Why Concert-goers love it

With Newcastle city centre just a short drive away, getting to your concert is simple and stress-free. After the show, return to a quiet, relaxed space away from the bustle. Late check-in from 3:00 PM means you can arrive at your own pace, and the on-site amenities like the hot tub and steam room are perfect for a post-show wind-down. Ample free parking and good local taxi access make late-night returns easy.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a sociable stay with space to unwind
  • Solo travelers catching a dream gig and wanting some peace after the crowd
  • Couples making a romantic weekend of concerts and countryside
  • Fans needing recovery time in a quieter, spa-equipped location
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

You won’t go hungry here. The on-site restaurant and brasserie offer hearty meals perfect for pre- or post-show dining. The lounge bar stays open late for drinks, and breakfast is available for those late risers after a night out. While 24/7 room service isn't listed, the hotel’s food options are known for being flexible and satisfying.

Nightlife Options

The hotel hosts themed evening events on select weekends, so you might catch some live entertainment without leaving the building. Otherwise, a short ride into Newcastle opens up loads of bars, clubs, and music lounges. Afterward, retreat to the hotel’s calm atmosphere for some much-needed rest.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, clean, modern rooms, and the relaxing spa facilities. Many mention the hotel’s location as being ideal for combining access to the city with the ability to escape the noise. The golf course and pool get frequent praise, and the breakfast earns solid reviews for its variety and quality.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel’s décor in common areas feels a bit dated in places, and occasional noise from functions can carry to nearby rooms. However, most agree these are minor issues compared to the overall value and comfort offered.

The Bottom Line

A relaxing, well-equipped hotel that gives you easy access to Newcastle’s concert scene—with the bonus of a spa for the morning after.

After the room confusion the...

Liked: Quiet location and modern and clean inside.
Disliked: I had booked a family room. King size bed plus a single sofa bed. When I arrived I was given a room with only a double bed. After explaining the reason why I booked the room was to accommodate a couple and a child. I was informed no rooms available and this was allocated to someone else. The hotel provided me the room next door as a courtesy as I explained three in a bed was not going to result in a good night sleep. At the time of check in no one informed us you where to go for breakfast or use of the gym. It’s a case of trial and error and finally you realize you need to leave the hotel entrance and walk outside to get to the breakfast area. I feel staff can be more helpful informing guests on arrival the routine.
