My experience from entrance to reception was excellent, making me feel instantly at ease. It was clear that all staff members were dedicated and proud of their work, consistently going out of their way to assist guests. The breakfasts were truly wonderful and delicious! I especially want to commend Steve, the breakfast chef, whose outstanding cooking was matched only by his incredibly cheerful smile.

Absolutely ghastly experience!! I’ve never been in a doss house but this was our assessment of this alleged hotel! If we hadn’t arrived so late we would have turned on our heels and left!! Left the disgusting room to go to the “restaurant”. The food was limited and as equally disgusting. Excuses offered were as a result of a “power cut” then “due to staff shortages” we were advised that it’ll be ok as there will be a chef in the morning! The breakfast marginally better; my boiled egg was ice cold as it had obviously been cooked the day before (hopefully) and been refrigerated. The room: cobwebs and dust aplenty!! Mold and grime aplenty around the windows; peeling paint, stains ++++ and torn bedraggled lamp shades. The sheets and towels were clean but no shower gel in the pump dispenser so had to use shampoo! Scared to place a barefoot anywhere!! The senior management of Holiday Inn need to sort this establishment out or shut it down!!

The room we had was 118,it was not an excitive room,but we truely believe that it used to be as it was extremely spacious room,plus a safe is in the room & I wouldn't of thought a standard room would have a safe. The down side was the restaurant, extremely expensive for what we actually got served,my husband had fish & chips,the fish seemed as though it came out of a packet, about 5 chips, good job he ordered another portion of chips,as the adult meal is more like a children's meal! I had the pizza, very large,but very thin& seemed uncooked. Then the actual bill was expensive considering the quality of the food!!

Called in to the hotel's coffee shop while our car was charging. Friendly, helpful service from reception and the lady on duty in the lounge/coffee shop. Will be visiting again I am sure!

I stayed at this hotel for one night in July 2025. On arrival I was told that my 14 year old nephew could not use the leisure facilities. Although we arrived at the hotel around 8:30pm and the pool was open, I was told that there was a restriction on age at certain times. This was not mentioned in the webpage where I booked the stay at the hotel. I would have expected a full refund but when I complained to the manager he only offered me 35%. (WHICH I REFUSED) I am the sole guardian of my nephew and I try not to disappoint him. After a busy day of visiting Anfield and Old Trafford and the city of York, a swim would have been a nice way to unwind. If they would have been honest in their advertising I would have booked a Travelodge, got the same facilities and saved a hundred pounds. The next day we had intended to have breakfast, have a swim and visit Richmond castle before our five hour drive home. We were then told that my nephew could not use the pool until 10am. It is also disappointing that the manager had an opportunity to make this right and failed.
