The Tennants Arms Hotel

The hotel is lovely and staff are friendly and helpful, thank you!
The hotel is located perfectly for getting out and about in the dales.

Very average hotel/pub with reasonable pub food. Breakfast could have more variety if you didn’t want a full English you were left with toast and cornflakes! Room big and big bathroom good shower, bath, 2 sinks but the taps on one were very loose. Bed not very comfy and the decor needed some TLC as did the blinds at the bedroom window! Wouldn’t hurry back.

The staff were very hardworking, always cheerful and friendly, breakfast and restaurant meals were brilliant with plenty to eat, the building is in need of a bit of refurbishment but overall it is clean and very well run. We would be happy to return if in the area.

Nice relaxing new yrs eve/day 2025 2 nite stay.
lovely room ,bathroom to die for.
Staff very helpful food nice
Breakfast included but not a lot of choice

We felt welcomed.
Our room was lovely and clean.

We enjoyed our evening meal in a cosy area and the lady that served us was very kindly and welcoming

The location of the Hotel is amazing! Wonderful views of the Dales and nice walks nearby with views of the river Wharfe.

Staff were friendly and helpful but hotel was tired and in need of improvement. Food was good and plentyful but menu was limited.

Online photos of the property, did not reflect the actual condition of property. Photoshop? The bedrooms we were in had lots of issues which were not resolved at the time. The toilet did not refill after a flush, we were instructed to lift the cistern lid and operate water inlet valve with a finger so the cistern would fill. Also told that if the flush button was operated very slowly it may fill on its own? There was a pair of socks in our bed, previous guest maybe. Underneath the bedside cabinet I found a small can of sexual spray lubricant; almost empty I put it in the bin. My wife has stability issues and we were told that the property did not have rooms with walk-in shower. But one of the other guest, staying in the Nidderdale room had a walk in shower, booked later. We were in the Garsdale room, it had a shower over a bath. The shower head pointed towards the ceiling, adjustments to any other position caused it to fall into the bath. Switching between shower to bath tap, needed tools or fingers of steel - it was so stiff. The shower water adjustment is dangerous, it could only be set to scolding hot or cool. The property was very well heated, this was good because the window could not be fully closed. The full English breakfast was extremely over cooked, so much so that the black pudding shattered into bits when cut by a knife, like cutting into a potato crisp; the bacon was dried and crispy and the sausage awful. For the rest of our stay we stuck to poached eggs.

Great value for money. Food and staff lovely.

Good location for exploring upper wharfedale or going to kilnsey show as we were doing but overall a bit underwhelming the building is 400 years old so one can expect creaks and quirks in abundance but the tired and/or worn out nature of the rooms and facilities overcomes any charm it may have had
The very photo they use of the door and porch is now somewhat ruined in reality by a worn out carpet and gaffer tape
The staff were helpful and welcoming and the breakfast was good
The bedroom was made up of a range of miscellaneous furniture and the tv needed a degree to locate bbc 1
The shower fixing was broken and it was impossible to get the mixers to deliver anything other than freezing cold or scolding hot water it did not make for a good start to the day
The bed was comfy and we slept well except for the unfortunate false fire alarm that went off at 12.30am …the staff visited every room to reassure everyone but it was a while before we settled down again !!
The evening menu was limited but ok
Tbh we didn’t pay a lot for the two nights so I guess it lived up to what we paid for .Overall it was clean comfy and staff were helpful and it did what we needed in giving us a base for the show

Lovely hotel in a beautiful setting.

absolutely lovely - highly recommend....will be back!

Brilliant stay lovely room more choice for breakfast would be good

Evening restaurant and bar was really good with tasty food and beer. The room was nice and big. The TV had internet so we were able to watch catchup TV. The bathroom was big with a large bath. There were 2 sinks but one of them had a crack in it so we didn't use it. The bed was comfy and the room was nice and quiet. Breakfast had a good selection of cereal, tea, coffee and juice and the full english was great.

Rooms were lovely. Bathroom excellent. Tv coverage not good

Lovely staff, great food, very pleasant stay

Beautiful setting, room comfortable/warm & clean, staff very helpful and attentive , highly recommend

Booked a deluxe room expecting it to look like the photos on Hotels.com but was greeted with a room that looked anything but deluxe! just a double bed in room with bedside cabinets that had been painted in situ as the paint had also been splattered onto the wardrobe next to it. The bed and mattress was awful, so uncomfortable, the pillows were flat and well used by the looks of things. The tiled floor in the bathroom was cracked by the door meaning slicing your foot was quite possible if not careful. The ceiling in the bathroom was mouldy, the sealant around the shower was also mouldy. The electrical consumer unit in our bedroom was last tested in 2021 with a sticker saying next test was 2022, we stayed in February 2024 so surely this should have been checked?!! Evening meal in the restaurant was nice food although the restaurant lacked any atmosphere and felt cold, the bar area was closed off due to lack of customers. There was ONE member of staff that was showing customers to rooms, serving behind the bar and serving meals in the evening. We didn't bother with breakfast in the morning but no one was around when we "self checked out" at 10.30am, they obviously get used to people complaining so guessing a lack of staff available gets rid of the problem of asking "how was your stay?" Don't bother staying here people, there are plenty of much nicer, friendlier and cleaner properties to stay in the area, shame really as it could be really nice with the right management !!

Awesome breakfast.
Nice and quiet.
Lovely clean room.
Staff were especially nice.
Quiet countryside location.
Excellent value for money.

Bathroom needs a complete refurb. Staff were great as was food.
