Benjamin M. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Dear Benjamin, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear our staff were friendly and helpful, but we’re very sorry that the rest of your experience fell short. We sincerely apologise that housekeeping did not service any of your four rooms during your stay, including failing to empty the bins. This was clearly not what you were advised at check in and is not the level of service we aim to provide. We also apologise for the repeated issues with your room keys. We understand how frustrating these issues must have been, particularly when travelling as a group. Your feedback has been noted and will be shared with our housekeeping and front office teams so we can address these shortcomings. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and please accept our sincere apologies. Kind Regards Emma Avery Front Reception Ibis Newcastle

Room wasn't ready on our arrival but offered a drink while waiting. Bed was reasonably comfortable, shower/ toilet unit needs a deep clean, general state of a few things was pretty bad e.g. access panels in the hallway swollen with water damage, also fixture under fridge.

Check in was easy, room was OK, though really in need of a remodel (like the ibis at Mascot Airport renovation about 10 years ago, Newcastle room reminds me of Mascot 25 years ago!) Unit surrounding the fridge was coming apart. Breakfast was good.

Staff were friendly. We were told at check-in (we had 4 rooms booked) that cleaning would for some reason only happen every second day, however no cleaning occurred in any of our rooms for the entire stay - garbage bins weren't even emptied. Room keys failed multiple times

The hotel was conveniently located for my work conference and close to Newcastle Interchange and local shops. My room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Check-in and check-out were straightforward. Overall, it was a pleasant and practical stay for a business trip.

Dear Allan, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that our location worked well for your conference and that you found getting around from the hotel convenient.

David N. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

We have stayed here quite a lot of times. Every time we get disappointed. I don’t know why I keep going back. The place is extremely run down. It’s not cleaned very well. We had to put a bucket under the air conditioner as it was leaking all night. When we got up in the morning, the bucket was almost full. It was hard to sleep listening to drips all night. The walls are filthy. The fridge was marked and has water damage on the cabinet it sits in. The curtains are filthy and the curtain rail is broken. I definitely won’t be back. We have given it so many chances. But not anymore.

Dear David, Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback, and we’re genuinely sorry that we’ve let you down, particularly after you’ve stayed with us so many times. The issues you’ve described, especially the leaking air conditioner, cleanliness, damaged curtain rail, and condition of the room, are certainly concerning. We completely understand your frustration after giving us so many opportunities to improve. I’ve attached our manager Joshua's contact details and would really encourage you to get in touch with him directly. We would appreciate the opportunity to hear more about your experience and discuss your concerns with you personally. Your feedback is important, and we don’t want your concerns to simply go unanswered. jo… We’re very sorry that we’ve let you down and that this stay has left you feeling that you won’t return. We truly appreciate the times you have chosen to stay with us and regret that we did not provide the experience you deserved. Kind Regards Emma Avery Front Reception Ibis Newcastle

Dear Richard, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the bathroom and that the modular design made the room feel uncomfortable for you.

Sheila L. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

The hotel did well to resolve issues with the first room we were assigned. The bar and food facilities were convenient, however we missed the 'common kitchen' area we had found at other Ibis properties, so not having access to a microwave was a little irritating.

Dear Shelia, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re pleased to hear that our team was able to promptly resolve the issues with your initial room and that you found our bar and food facilities convenient. We’re sorry, however, that the lack of a common kitchen and microwave was an inconvenience during your stay. We understand how useful these facilities can be, particularly for guests who prefer the flexibility of preparing or reheating their own food. We truly appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for an even more enjoyable stay in the future. Warm regards, Nancy Talbot Assistant Manager Ibis Newcastle

Coates J. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Great staff In house. But hotel room was damaged and unclean to the point it had been neglected. Room was only serviced once in a 6 night stay without me needing to directly request amenities.

Dear J., Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback, particularly after such a long journey to Newcastle. I’m genuinely sorry that your six-night stay was such a disappointing experience. The concerns you’ve raised around the cleanliness and condition of the room, room servicing and the overnight noise clearly made your stay much less comfortable than it should have been. I can appreciate how frustrating that would have been, especially when you were here to enjoy a holiday. I do, however, really appreciate your kind words about our team. Our staff work hard to look after our guests, and it’s great to hear that they were friendly, accommodating and did their best to assist whenever you raised an issue. I only wish we had been able to assist more and provide you with the experience you were expecting from your stay. Thank you again for your honesty and for sharing your experience with us. We appreciate your insight. Kind regards, Joshua Barton Front Office Manager ibis Newcastle

Ramon G. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

The bedsheets had multiple small holes/wear patches. I had the aircon in my room off, but either the neighbouring unit or the system vents were loud in the walls and made it very difficult to sleep with the constant droning noise.

Hi Ramon, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m really sorry we missed the mark during your stay. I’m particularly sorry about the condition of the bedsheets and the noise from the aircon and vent system. I can completely understand how frustrating it would be trying to sleep with that constant droning, especially when your own aircon was switched off. I’ll make sure the linen issue is followed up with our housekeeping team, and I’ll also have our maintenance team check the room and surrounding aircon and vent system to see where that noise is coming from. It’s certainly not the experience we want our guests to have. Thanks again for flagging this with us. We really appreciate the honest feedback and the opportunity to improve. Kind regards, Joshua Barton Front Office Manager ibis Newcastle

Graham L. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Trouble booking in. Totally disorganised booking system. Rang the website and had to sort out the mis-understanding of what we expected. The room we were given was poor - water damaged around the fridge - which made a loud bang every time the compressor turned off. We had to turn the fridge off so that we could sleep.

Hi Graham, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really sorry we missed the mark here. The booking process clearly wasn’t as straightforward as it should have been, and having to call through and explain what you were expecting is certainly not the start to a stay we want for our guests. I’m also disappointed to hear about the condition of the room and, in particular, the fridge noise. Having to switch the fridge off just to get some sleep is definitely not ideal. The water damage around the fridge is something we’ll be following up with the team as well. I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We’ll take the feedback on board and use it to tighten things up. Thanks again, and hopefully we get the chance to give you a much better experience next time. Kind regards, Joshua Barton Front Office Manager ibis Newcastle

Lyu L. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

I came down to Newcastle every 6 months for my exams and it’s the third time I stayed at ibis Newcastle. Obviously ibis Newcastle has a very lovely team. The staff members on 30th August morning shift and 31st August morning shift I spoke to are both very nice and friendly. The room is clean and it’s much better than the one I stayed in last time. Still, they have a chair, desk and a suitable light above the desk if you need to study, and these are what I satisfied with. However, this room has a very old fridge. It made an extremely loud noise about every 15 mins. It was so disruptive that it even woke me up during the night. I couldn’t turn it off because there was some packaged milk in the fridge for coffee use (I guess), and I don’t want to them to go off. Overall the room was fine, except for the noisy fridge.

Dear Lyu, Thanks so much for coming back to stay with us again, especially with your exams bringing you to Newcastle every six months. We really appreciate your continued support. It’s great to hear the team looked after you and that you found the room clean and better than your previous stay. I’m also glad the desk, chair and lighting worked well for studying. I’m sorry about the fridge, though. That level of noise during the night would definitely be frustrating, especially when you’re trying to get some sleep before an exam. We’ll have the fridge checked out with the team. Thanks again for the detailed feedback, and all the best with your exams. We look forward to seeing you again next time you’re in Newcastle. Kind regards, Joshua Barton Front Office Manager ibis Newcastle

The room was clean and comfortable for my quick stay over. The hallway outside the room does have a smell. The breakfast included was great.

Hi Suzanne, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. I’m glad the room was clean and comfortable and that the breakfast was a highlight of your stay. I’m sorry about the smell in the hallway outside your room. I’ll pass this on to the team so we can look into it and keep the common areas smelling fresh. Thanks again for staying with us, even if it was only a quick stopover. We really appreciate it and hope to see you again next time you’re in Newcastle.
