A really nice room above the pub. Decorated well, comfortable beds, lovely bathroom, and secondary-glazed so very little sound from the road outside. The breakfast was also very good.

Good location in the centre of Ilkley. Checkin was very efficient and friendly. Breakfast hamper in the room was more than enough with water, milk, orange juice, cereal, fruit etc and a fridge to keep things in.

An exceptional hotel room above a busy pub. The room had everything we needed and was large and comfortable for a family of 4. We loved the hamper with breakfast treats and the fridge in the room. The coffee machine and fan were a treat. The only negatives I can think of are that its very noisy, which even though we knew it was above a pub, we didn’t expect it to be as loud as it was. It was karaoke night but the sound proofing is non existent, luckily we were shattered so dropped off pretty easily in the comfy beds, but just to be mindful of if you are a light sleeper or have children with you. The car parking is also a little confusing … on this site it says it’s £6 for 24 hours on the carpark behind the pub which is not true. It was £1.50 an hour up until 10pm we then had to go back the next morning at 8am to pay again for more hours….This was misleading on this website. Other than that we did have an enjoyable stay and Ilkley is delightful.

Under new management, kitchen closed and was only informed when I got there, therefore no cooked breakfast. Shower tray flooded, water all over the bathroom floor which is rotting the bathroom door. No staff around in the morning

Under new management and not fully staffed as yet. Staff were lovely, friendly and friendly helpful. Bar was reasonably stocked but very expensive. A bottle of red wine was £29. Disappointed that the kitchen is permanently closed so no cooked breakfast. A breakfast hamper of cereals, fruit and yogurt instead
