We recently had the pleasure of welcoming presenter and national icon Alexander Armstrong to Hotel Indigo Durham. Yes, the much-loved actor and singer was in town to perform at the iconic Durham Cathedral, celebrating 50 years of the Music Foundation.
The city was abuzz with the news, featuring in the Northern Echo, Alexander took the time to grab some great snaps with our team. Making the most of our Rotunda bar, Alexander spent the evening laughing with friends until the early hours, enjoying the serene, welcoming atmosphere of our bar.
With Alexander’s extensive travels, he knows a great hotel when he sees one, so we were delighted to hear he would be joining us!
