About Hotel Indigo Durham

A boutique hotel in the heart of Durham city centre

Set within the beautifully restored Old Shire Hall on Old Elvet, Hotel Indigo Durham is one of the most distinctive boutique hotels in Durham city centre, just five minutes’ drive from Durham railway station and moments from the historic heart of the city.

Our central location makes exploring effortless, with the city’s magnificent trinity: Durham University, Durham Castle and the world-renowned Durham Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, all just a short stroll away. From the hotel, everything Durham offers is within easy reach on foot.

Every walk here is a delight, along the banks of the River Wear, through the university’s botanic gardens, or down the narrow “vennels,” the tight medieval alleyways that weave between the city centre’s buildings. Along these side streets you’ll discover wonderful independent places to eat and drink, including Vennels Cafe, a Durham institution famed for its homemade quiche and cake.

And no visit to Durham is complete without the historic covered market, where you can pick up a sensational range of fresh, local produce beneath the beautiful Victorian ironwork.

We had the most fantastic [wedding] day. The whole weekend was amazing. Everything went so very well. The food was amazing as always, the décor and the ambience was all perfect. All of our guests had a wonderful time and are still talking about it, especially those who stayed over. The staff were an absolute credit…polite, helpful, courteous and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. What a wonderful experience it was and we will never be able to thank you all enough.
