The hotel is in an excellent location with all the amenities and attractions within walking distance. The staff are friendly and efficient and we’re all willing to do that extra bit to make our stay worthwhile The hotel’s parking arrangements are excellent, especially for a hotel right in the city centre.The room itself was clean and spacious with everything you would expect. The food was excellent- nothing extraordinary - but very well cooked.

A Yorkshire treat.

Room very clean / bed comfortable / Food excellent though the breakfast menu was a little reduced from what I had read online e.g. lack of fish items (smoked haddock,etc.). The staff were very friendly and helpful. A most enjoyable stay.
