Pleasant. But a little underwhelmed.

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

Really enjoyed our stay and...

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