You will be staying in a modern 3* hotel in shared rooms with breakfast included. The rooms are fully equipped with modern, en-suite bathrooms, power showers, Freeview TV, tea and coffee and Wi-Fi. The hotel has a late-night bar and offers free car parking to guests.
Located just 2 minutes from Newcastle's famous Metro Centre you can enjoy a few hours of retail therapy in Europe's largest shopping and leisure complex. There are over 300 stores to visit as well as a theme park, Imax cinema and plenty of restaurants and bars where you can relax and watch the world go by.
Whether you prefer a mild korma or a bum-burning vindaloo you are in for a culinary treat when you visit the renowned Rupali Restaurant. With more awards under their belt than any other curry house in the North East the Rupali also holds the Guinness Record for creating the world's hottest curry. A vindaloo tastes like ice cream in comparison and Gordon Ramsey (confessed curry lover) said it was the hottest curry he had ever tasted.
Of course you can have the Tikka Masala if you don't fancy blowing your head off, but just for laughs the stag gets a complimentary taster and anyone man enough to finish a whole portion gets it on the house. We must warn you though that on a recent visit the waiter said he had tried and failed four times to finish it and our own MD (who eats chillies for breakfast) only managed half a portion before he passed out.

Get StartedEPIC! the one word coming from everyone that attended, EPIC! It couldn't have gone better if we wanted it to! The paintballing was really good fun although the 'hunt the stag' game become the 'hunt the stag and best man' game... ouch!! The hotel was in a good enough location, the taxi fares to and from Broad Street were very reasonable, the hotel it self was everything we needed, would recomend it! We didn't make it to the strip bar in the package, i think this was down to the Football being shown in O'neills on Broad Street, after the football we just stayed on the main street, nobody complained (we ended up in another one!!)...thanks for a great Stag weekend!

The stag weekend was fantastic, thank you to yourselves and all your colleagues for all your help. Cardiff is clearly set up well for Stag weekends, we got into all venues without any fuss (unlike one I went to in London the week before) and there wasn't a hint of any trouble. The one time I had to call for help was when we couldn't find the party boat venue but that was because it was late coming into the bay and was solved easily over the phone. I would be very happy to recommend escape to all my friends, one of whom is getting married next year! Thanks again<br>

Happy to give some feedback on the weekend, overall had a very good time in Newcastle. Hotel was very good, clean rooms with enough space considering we were only crashing in between drinking sessions, the staff were really helpful and friendly and I thought it was very reasonable for the money. Was a good location being only 5 mins walk to the millenium bridge and into the Quayside area. Also had plenty of parking, even for our enormous bus.<br> <br>Activities were also good, we did struggle a little to find the centre on the first attempt, we were probably relying on sat nav too much and ended up in farmland for a while. The people there were great and well organised, the shooting was fun and the dirt buggy racing was even better. All the stags seemed to enjoy it.<br> <br>Restaurants were both also very good, La Strada was quite a long walk up through town to get to but easy to find and they were very accommodating...Food quality was very good for a set menu...Indian Restaurant I would actually recommend to anyone going to Newcastle. We had a group of curry lovers from London who are used to Brick lane once a week and I have to say the quality of the food was very good. Very tasty curries and properly hot as well, plenty of food so no-one left hungry. The Phal they brought out for us all to try was a real party piece (some of the stags found it quite painful!) and they were relaxed about us all coming in dressed up and were very welcoming.<br> <br>Overall a really good experience. Many thanks for your help in setting this up.

All in all it was a good weekend. The Stag asked me to respond as he really enjoyed it. Made everything a lot easier by not having to book all parts of the weekend separately. Could of done with a winner at the National so maybe you could provide some tips next time! Also, one of our party broke his knee after only two hours in Blackpool and he is only returning home today so perhaps some first aiders too! On a serious note tho, everything ticket wise went without a hitch so thanks for your help.

EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING! CAROLINE IS the coolest, and so nice! We've already said we'd go back again soon.<br>Your service has been great also, and you kept me upto date with stuff. Thankyou!

We had a brilliant time! The clay pigeon shooting was a real laugh because none of us had done it before: the supervision was excellent and very patient! Definitely recommend to others.<br>The casino was equally excellent - a last minute change of venue wasn't a problem, since this was completely taken care of by your good selves. It turns out to have been a blessing is so much as the new venue was literally across the road from where we'd chosen to eat. The whole package was very reasonably priced and went very smoothly. Would recommend to others.

Thanks a lot to Ivan for organising my brother’s stag do in Newquay. The quads and go-karts were hilarious and all the lads had a great time. I rolled my quad on one of the corners, which was the worst crash I’ve had all season. I would definitely recommend Escape to anyone that has a stag or hen party to organise.
