An excellent place to stay, very helpful staff especially Jodie on waitressing, our room was very hot but I turned the radiator down so easy fix, a running water noise from the heating I think all night in room 25, so apart from that would have been 5 stars….I would definitely recommend and stay again.

Very dissatisfied.
Friendly receptionist. Bar staff did not engage at all. Sub standard room compared to previous stay. Bathroom was dirty and very cramped. Restaurant meal was poor. Stale bread, pureed veg passed as soup, rosti was raw, black pudding was mush. Staff spent the evening moaning about shifts, (was interesting, but not what you wanted to hear when eating). A better standard was expected for the price we paid.

Not great
Quite dirty and no effort to remedy when I showed photos of the shower curtain and shower head to the front desk. I had to ask for a new shower curtain twice.
Super gross
Really yucky and smelly
Fixtures hadn’t been cleaned in a while
Grimy towel rack where towels were shoved in

A lovely hotel
The hotel is right on the market square and has its own car park at the rear, It is beautifully decorated, Our room was nicely decorated and very comfortable. Although we are above the reception area it was so quiet. We stayed 2 nights and had breakfast and dinner in the restaurant. The food was excellent. The chicken with the black garlic sauce was a faviourite of mine and my partner. The hot options at breakfast are cooked to order. The tea and coffee were in generous pots so you could have a lesuirely breakfast with plenty of refreshment. All the members of the team were freindly and professional. We would definitely look to stay again when we are back in North Yorkshire.

Wonderful stay
Everything about my stay made me smile, the staff their helpfulness and courtesy, the room its condition and spaciousness, the food and its variety and deliciousness. The closeness of somewhere to give my dog a really good walk a huge bonus.

Shocking annex room
Shocking. Booked a standard double, nowhere does it say we will be in an annex on the carpark. Dirty rooms with stained carpets, tiny single room made into a double to shove guests in. Booked 5 months in advance to sing at the races and 100% won’t be returning. Grime in the shower that wiped off, dust on all the sides, cobwebs in the window and broken blinds. Absolutely filthy and had a wretched smell. Your website is misleading showing rooms with gorgeous fabrics. Didn’t even get to see the hotel because we were shoved out back. Not acceptable for the price charged. No rooms available to change us. Faulty hairdryer that fused when you plugged it in. Two plugs in the whole room! To top it off, customers who stayed the night before had left items in the wardrobe and behind the chair which shows the rooms are not cleaned daily. Very poor standard and not acceptable. Carpark is being used from 5pm by delivery drivers and a walkway for anyone going in to town. Even had a delivery happening under our window at 6am with the engine running. Basic, shabby rooms and a terrible terrible night sleep.
