Pennine Manor Hotel

Nice clean room with bath & shower. Breakfast great on two days but on our middle day the breakfast was a buffet which was not so good.

Check-in staff were miserable and unhelpful. We booked a table in the restaurant but on arrival were told that the restaurant is only used for breakfast. We had to eat in the bar but we did not have a table reserved and had to scrabble for a table. The food was very basic pub food with little choice and the drinks choices very limited. Breakfast was very good.

Bedroom and bathroom in need of upgrade. Lots of dirty marks on bedroom walls, faulty bedside light, paint peeling on window cills, net curtains coming apart. Bathroom - broken plug on hand basin, cold draughts through badly fitting window, no rubber/non-slip bath mat available when requested for bath with shower over. Spectacular location, amazing views, plenty of parking, good breakfast.

Breakfast was very tasty and set me up for the day

£100 pound pre authorisation charge in addition to your normal invoice. Will not charge any items to room (bar or food) even thou you are staying and they have your card details. Check in was terrible. Was not informed of the above, not even told breakfast times or where to find dining room etc. Hotel extremly quiet, No one in bar. Although the website says has restaurant and literature says is open it most certainly is not. Was closed all the time and only offered bar food. Bar food limited choice and the quality is terrible. Starter came less than five minutes after ordering, Cannot cook from fresh within that time. Obviously had either been pre cooked or was frozen and zapped in microwave. Food was tasteless. Outside at side of hotel looked to be very run down boarded up stable blocks. Also upon taking walk around back of hotel, building at side was falling down with roof carved in. Obviously the hotel management are really proud of the impression they give.... NOT. No staff behind bar and can be waiting ages no matter what time of day. My meal stated chips and got skinny fries which were only just warm. Onion rings were stone cold. Not once did I see staff member to come and enquire was meal ok. Perhaps they knew the answer would get. Hotel is very dated inside with dark doors and furniture in room the same looks like second hand out of an antique shop. Bathroom had a odd smell similar to drain smell and cleaning not good. See photos. AVOID....
