Overview

Boars Head Boutique Hotel is in a historic building on High Street East, in the old East End of Sunderland near the docks at the mouth of the Wear. The property describes itself as a bed and breakfast, and it's the kind of small, characterful stay that suits a weekend or a work trip alike.

The terrace and some of the rooms look out over the river. There's a restaurant on site, so you don't need to head out for dinner, plus family rooms, high-speed Wi-Fi at no cost and free private parking, which is handy so close to the city centre.

Highlights

  • River views from the terrace and selected rooms
  • Restaurant on site
  • Free private parking
  • Family rooms available
  • About 2.1 km from the Stadium of Light
