CITY NIGHT LIFE

Newcastle is well known throughout England for being a party city and for a long time Europe has aligned the city with the major places to visit and party. The world now knows about the Geordies and how they like to enjoy thier weekends! At the Albatross we run a very secure hostel that only allows entry for staying guests. For those coming to party or to take in the scenes we welcome you all, however, we make it very clear this hostel is not a place to extend the night by partying through until Sunday but all guests who arrive for the weekend in Newcastle will experience the night life and party atmosphere…we aren’t saying you won’t sleep…but you’ll remember Saturday nights in town.

MAD ABOUT FOOTBALL!

Newcastle United, Toon Army, Haway the lads! Need we say anymore? Whatever the weather, whether they’re playing well or playing bad the Toon Army are always there.

The Albatross proudly caters for many, many Newcastle fans who return to stay often and travel from all over the world to see the Magpies in the black and white stripes. Premier league football…it can’t be beaten!
