Top Academy Theatre Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Barnsley by IHG

8/10 Good

"Room was very clean, all staff was kind and friendly. Breakfast was just ok, lack of fruit and bakery options. Parking was good"

Mercure Barnsley Tankersley

8/10 Good

"The room was very comfortable and clean. The corridors could have been cleaner as there were bottles and other rubbish from guests rooms on the windowsills. In the evening my room was near the back of the hotel and there was a very loud noise which sounded like a washing machine or tumble dryer being on. Fortunately, this noise stopped at around 10pm and then started again in the morning. Breakfast was nice although the staff started to clear away some of the options offered for the buffet before the end of service. Food was good, staff were friendly, on the whole a comfortable stay. The pool area was also lovely and was made better by having access to the outside area."

Whitley Hall Hotel

8/10 Good

"Firstly, I want to say how beautiful this historic house is – absolutely stunning. We booked an Executive Room, stayed for two nights as my son was getting married here. We arrived around 10 minutes before check-in, so we spent some time exploring the hotel and its beautiful gardens before taking a seat at the bar to admire the building. Once checked in, we went to our room, we were a little disappointed with our Executive Room. We had paid extra, but it wasn't noticeably different from the standard room booked by one of our friends. The only real difference appeared to be the Juliet balcony doors. Positives: Absolutely stunning historic building. Beautiful grounds with a picturesque setting. A lovely outdoor location for wedding ceremonies. Negatives: There are no outdoor bins anywhere on the grounds, only in the hotel rooms. As a result, cigarette butts and other litter were left on the ground in several areas. Providing outdoor bins would be a simple improvement that would help keep the grounds tidy. The carpets throughout the hotel are looking quite worn and would benefit from being replaced. Parts of the gardens are looking overgrown and would benefit from some care and attention. A little overpriced. .. Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay, and the hotel provided a beautiful setting for my son's wedding. While there are a few areas that could be improved, they are relatively simple changes that would make a noticeable difference to the overall guest experience."

NORFOLK ARMS HOTEL SHEFFIELD

8/10 Good

"We had a fantastic stay at the Norfolk Arms. The pub, restaurant, and rooms have all been beautifully renovated, creating a fresh, welcoming atmosphere throughout. A huge 5‑star shoutout to Cameron. His hard work, excellent customer service, and genuine passion for hospitality made our visit truly memorable. It’s clear that tourism is in his heart, and he goes above and beyond to make every guest’s stay the best it can be. While the outside still looks a little tired, please don’t let that put you off. What matters is the experience inside — and that’s where the Norfolk Arms really shines. We will be revisiting."
