Lovely stay, would recommend.

We booked 2 double rooms for a long weekend, both rooms were spotless, very comfortable bed, so an excellent night sleep! The lock broke on one room on the last night so my family were moved to another room with no problem. Friendly, approachable staff, very attentive. We booked our evening meals at the bar, good choice on the menu. Extensive choice for breakfast too. Would definitely stay there again.

We (2 adults, 2 kids) stayed for one night. Pros: the Family Room was very large, more like a suite as the kids had their own small room with two beds off the main room. The ‘double’ bed was huge, and the pillows are the comfiest I’ve ever slept on - my husband said it was the best night’s sleep he’s ever had in a hotel! There’s plenty of parking available, the area feels safe and is very quiet. Only 35mins drive into York (which was the main reason for our stay), but not even half the price of more central hotels. Well worth the drive! Cons: the only things to note are that the floorboards are quite creaky, so I imagine if you’re on the ground floor you might find it noisy. And the bathroom could definitely do with a spruce up (small amount of mould in the grout, peeling paint from the bath panel etc). Overall we had a lovely stay, and will definitely be back!

Owl, Hambleton - Team thank you

My brother & me found this pub in August 2022 when looking for decent evening food in the area and saw that it was a hotel too. We therefore booked to stay Thurs 24th - Sat 26th August around our annual trip to the Ebor cup at York Races. We ate and drank in the pub on Thursday night too. Everything was fabulous thank you inc. value for money, customer service throughout, cleanliness and facilities in the room, management of an event in the pub on the Saturday night which inc very loud music but finished promptly at a sensible time in line with licensing conditions.

Lovely room at first impression.

The room at first appearance is lovely. Large TV, comfy bed, looks modern. However, no heating in October, the toilet seat was broken and didn't flush well. The shower wasn't very hot and water went all over the floor due to a very flimsy shower curtain. One of the single beds wasn't a bed, just a camp bed that sunk in the middle. Staff were really nice though. The food in the pub was ok but nothing special. I'd not eat or stay there again though. I only stayed one night.

The food was bad, asked for a medium stake but it was way too overcooked, sauce in lasagne tasted a bit off, asked for a sauce that isn’t spicy and it was spicy (despite the waitress saying its not), we were listening to music at 21:50 or so and we were told to listen to it quieter despite us talking louder than the music itself. Beds were uncomfortable, the shower water was too hot on both sides. Wouldn’t recommend

Ok but didn't feel clean

The room was fine. We were only there for 1 night so didn't need much more than a comfy bed and somewhere clean to wash. Unfortunately, the bathroom was less than clean. There were hairs still present in the bath from previous occupants and what looked like brown stains on the wall next to the loo. The bathroom had a very unpleasant smell. Couldn't shower in the bath so just had to have a quick wash. Meal and service at the pub restaurant was good.
