The Spotlight on Ramada Encore Newcastle-Gateshead

Modern comfort steps from the music scene

Modern and stylish, the Ramada Encore Newcastle-Gateshead sits right in the heart of Gateshead Quays, just across the river from central Newcastle. With sleek rooms, hardwood floors, and a contemporary vibe, this hotel is a popular choice for music lovers heading to events at The Sage or venues along the bustling Quayside. Free Wi-Fi, a 24-hour business centre, and an on-site restaurant and bar make it a well-rounded base for any music-fueled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just a 5-minute walk from The Sage and a short stroll to the buzzing Quayside – perfect for catching both big-name gigs and indie acts. The hotel is close enough to the action to walk back after a late show, but far enough for a quiet night's sleep. With 24/7 access and an easy check-in from 15:00, it's flexible for post-gig arrivals. Gateshead Metro Station is within a 15-minute walk, offering late-night links across the city.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish yet affordable stay
  • Solo travelers in town for that once-in-a-lifetime show
  • Couples making a romantic weekend of live music
  • Fans who want some chill time after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value near the action

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant and bar are great for a pre-show bite or post-gig wind-down. While there's no full 24/7 room service, the restaurant stays open late enough for most concert returns. Plenty of walkable eateries along the Quayside offer everything from street food to sit-down dining, and if you’re planning a lie-in, breakfast is served after those late nights.

Nightlife Options

You’re just a short walk from Newcastle’s nightlife – bars, clubs, and live music venues line both the Quayside and city centre. The hotel bar is more of a relaxed spot, ideal for a nightcap or craft beer before calling it a night.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s convenient location for gigs at The Sage and the short distance to the city centre. Reviews often mention the clean, modern rooms, friendly staff, and excellent value. The free Wi-Fi and comfortable beds are also big hits with travelers looking to recharge after a big night out.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that soundproofing could be better – so pack earplugs if you’re light sleeper. The walk from the Metro station is scenic but can feel a bit long if you're lugging gear. Also, parking is limited, so consider public transport if you're coming in for a show.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a concert in Newcastle or Gateshead, Ramada Encore Newcastle-Gateshead offers the ideal mix of location, comfort, and affordability.

We had a wonderful experience...

Liked: The hotel was located near to a shopping centre and amenities. Our room was clean and the bed was really comfortable. Kerry on Reception and John behind the bar provided excellent customer service and were friendly and helpful.
Disliked: Although there were tea & coffee making facilities in our room, it would have been helpful to have water bottles or somewhere to refill an empty water bottle. I didn’t like the idea of filling the kettle from the bathroom tap.

Suited me for the short...

Liked: Location good as just a short walk from the Quayside and Glasshouse. Longer walk into the main centre. Staff overall were lovely.
Disliked: The room was very basic. No wardrobe - just hangers. Bed comfortable-ish. No bath and the shower wasn’t that powerful. Lighting wasn’t great. And the desk with the mirror was bad design. The pull out shelf for the kettle and cups etc seemed a good idea but to plug it in you had to lift the whole plastic tray with the cup and kettle up onto the desk anyway in order to plug it in. Mirror was very low. All little annoying things.

Was a good stay but...

Liked: Beds were super comfy. Glad I could open the window as there is no air con.
Disliked: The wet room shower, water goes everywhere and all over the whole bathroom. Not my preference. Good pressure in the shower but so impractical with no shower door or even anything to stop water from leaving shower area. Lighting is pretty poor in the room.
