Maldron Hotel

Right in the heart of the city, this stag-approved hotel is the perfect guys' weekend ha'way, with bars, clubs and pubs right on your doorstep. The modern, spacious rooms have all the essentials and more, plus you're close to major transport routes and famous landmarks. Stags welcome to the Geordie Shore for your legendary Newcastle stag do!

There's a reason why this party city needed its own TV show; Newcastle really could not contain its epic-ness when it comes to a fantastic night out. Packed with live music venues, pubs, bars and the craziest clubs, The Toon is a popular destination for stag and stag-kind to come together and celebrate before the groom's big day.

The Maldron Hotel has modern, en-suite rooms with satellite TV, room service, free toiletries and free WiFi to get those bad photos of the groom uploaded for all his family back home to see. There's also a hotel restaurant and bar so you don't have far to walk from your hotel room, and breakfast is included during your stay.

By night, Newcastle comes alive with the maddest party scene, and you'll be in the heart of it all. StagWeb can sort you out with a top night out made even better with Guided Pub Crawls, Guest List Club Entry and transport if the stags want to travel a little further afield. Both Eldon Square and The Gate are also a short walk from the hotel.

Take your Geordie Stag do to the next level with an action-packed activity from StagWeb. We've got an incredibly long list of madcap games, experiences and pranks that include Paintballing, Go Karting, and the infamous Geordie Games for a North East-themed challenge. Sound good?
