    Location was good

    Room was not the best for the price paid, it was small and the bathroom likewise. The price paid seems excessive when it does not include breakfast, which we decided not to have in the hotel. The meals and drinks appear to be expensive for what you get. We only had one drink in the small bar set in the entrance to the restaurant. Staff not particularly friendly, no information provided by staff on arrival about check out, wifi etc. Car park was poor, we were told to park on the street corner which was access to the carpark as there was not a space available, risk of our car being hit. Overall I would not recommend staying here, we will not return.

    Room excelllent, bed confortable, food was superb. Just beware music from the bar transmits loudly to some rooms. Not cheap but a high quality venue, restaurant closer to fine dining than a pub.

    Music takes away some tranquility

    It’s a very cozy place, perfect for a celebration. We couldn’t have been better looked after, nothing was too much trouble. Perfect.

    There was nothing to dislike.

    Location good . Breakfast just ok

    No staff working on Tuesday when we arrived. No bar open . No restaurant open. Not told hotel closed Monday and Tuesday. Unable to gain access. Assumed I had paid for breakfast in the £154 price but was charged another £26 . I think £180 for the night when no facilities available is very very excessive and I am asking for at least £80 refund. I would expect to hear from you within one week .

    Room 1 is spacious with comfy beds. Nice toiletries provided and a good shower. We had dinner in the restaurant which was very good and the staff were professional and friendly Lovely terrace to enjoy a drink in the sunshine

    The bathroom is small and the bathroom door gets in the way when standing at the sink We couldn't get the TV to work Breakfast was an additional charge, so was coffee/ tea and no juice provided. Our fried eggs were hard and the sausages were overdone _ not value for money at £30 we felt

    Huge bed. Very comfy. Slept very well. Great location. Car parking was great. Easy walk into Skipton.

    Stayed in room 5. Loft room. Low beams. Mind your head! A low beam in the bathroom, too. The shower was adapted to compensate for this. The shower, however, was very good. I did manage to bang my head a number of times when using it! My wife found an empty bottle of deodorant behind the dresser from the previous guest. The adapted low wardrobe had a thick layer of dust on the top. It clearly hadn't been wiped clean for weeks. Someone had inscribed clean me in the layer of dust. The carpet had some visible stains and needed a deep clean. Very steep stairs to the room. It wouldn't suit guests with mobility issues. Paid £285 for 2 nights. A little pricey. Breakfast was not included. I did book this through booking.com and not direct with hotel.

    Breakfast was nice service good, had evening meal in hotel which was very nice Location of hotel brilliant

    Our room was a deluxe room which we booked through Booking .com we will go direct to hotel when we stay again. I thought the room was very noisy having the kitchen underneath or next to the room doors banging etc staff arriving at 6.30am could hear everything also the socket situation - no socket near mirror which was annoying when trying to dry hair but overall we throughly enjoyed our stay.

    We had a great stay - the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was lovely. We didn't have breakfast at Curious Fox, but did eat their Sunday lunch, which was fantastic. Alongside the roasts, they menu was lovely, with great looking specials and a good wine list. The location was great for exploring Skipton too.

    Cleanliness of the room and the available facilities, customer service, location. Food was superb. Staff were both friendly and helpful .

    Steep narrow steps to room but we could have asked for one with easier access so that was down to us.
