Stay was good, food not so much
The stay was good overall. I didn’t like the food though, the burger and fries should have been much better for a Marriott.

Great location and ideal hotel
I stayed at the Delta for one night with my husband whilst visiting our son at Durham University. The location couldn’t be better as it is just across the bridge from the Bailey. Our room was very specious, clean, quiet and comfortable and we will definitely book again.

Birthday long weekend.
We stayed for three nights for my husband's 60th birthday.
The hotel was great, clean and tidy and the staff were wonderful.
I had booked a Deluxe room but we were upgraded to a superior room by the hotel before we arrived. The only downside to this was our room was in the newest part of the hotel (Riverside) and the lift to take us to the link walkway was broken which meant that we had to walk up and down four flights of stairs, two floors, which took it's toll on my arthritic knee.
