Stayed here on Fri 29th Nov. First impressions were good. all the staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The room was well laid out, with a large warm bathroom. Plenty of space to move around. Our room overlooked the Christmas tree on the roundabout, which meant we had a bit of traffic noise through the night, but not intrusive or enough to disturb sleep. nice offering of teas, coffees, biscuits. Breakfast was made to order, so nice and hot with quality produce. we had a full cooked breakfast, which was delicious. If I'm being really picky, the shower lacked any power, which meant I had to take the shower head off the riser rail and crouch in the bath. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Pickering is a nice town. We took the steam train here and stayed there for one night. This hotel is similar to a family hotel, the environment is acceptable, but the services are basically non-existent. Breakfast includes two breakfasts, but an extra child has to buy it separately. Cold meals are 10 pounds and hot meals are 16 pounds. We say that the two adults who include breakfast will order hot meals, and the additional child will order cold meals. The waiter said that adults can order whatever they want on the menu and there is no quantity limit. We ordered several dishes in total, thinking they were all single items, but it turned out that each dish came with a side dish. We saw that we couldn't finish it and asked them to leave it. Don't serve the food that was served. At the end of the bill, they told us that we ordered more than two hot meals, and since the dishes that were not served would be counted, the children's portions must also be charged as hot meals. The argument failed, and they didn't listen to the explanation at all. And what's even more outrageous is that when we ordered, we clearly said that our children wanted cold meals, and we ordered more than three people. Why didn't the waiter remind us? ! The service is terrible!

A wonderful hotel, cleanliness excellent, comfortable room, delicious breakfast cooked to order, good choice of menu at evening meal, extremely helpful staff, and right in the centre of Pickering - who could want for more on a break in the North Yorkshire Moors.

We stayed as a family. Pickering was a wonderful base for us to explore the surrounding area. The hotel itself was wonderful, an absolute gem. The rooms were clean and bright overlooking the lovely gardens. The service at breakfast was wonderful with a good selection of continental and cooked items. We had a drink and evening meal the first night and really enjoyed the food. The stars were so friendly and helpful. We felt the hotel was excellent value for money. All in all we would stay here again when next in the area. Thank you for making our stay so great.

Another wonderful stay at this Marvellous hotel.Staff are so helpful from the moment you check in .We were once again given a warm welcome from the young lady at reception. Tom who is such a credit to the hotel took our bags and showed us to our room . The superior room was amazing we couldn't of asked for better. Mrs C greeted us the next morning with her usual warm manner another credit to the hotel. This is by far our favourite hotel and will be visiting again later on in the year .
