Not for me. Apologies.
Pros:

N/a

Cons:

Rooms were tiny, very old. Paper thin walls so I could hear people snoring in other rooms, or walking around on the stairs which were creaking. Room was also uncomfortably hot. Tv didn’t work. I wanted to checkout at 5am but no staff on, or nowhere to leave key, so had to leave it in bedroom door.

Noisy badly laid out room was a disappointment
Pros:

Good location with free parking and an easy walk into town.

Cons:

Our room overlooked the very busy, very noisy road. Windows were insufficient to block out noise. Window blinds were very awkward to get to and even once closed did a poor job of blocking out light. The bathroom was a tiny sliver of a room with a deep step down into it - nowhere to put anything, tap on basin loose and toilet flush almost hanging off the wall. Shower looked OK but so tight to actually access it we didn't bother to use it. Breakfast distinctly uninspiring. A disappointing stay for us, but with a quieter room with better designed bathroom I can see that this could be a good place to stay if visiting Skipton.

A lovely hotel, we would definitely stay there again.
Pros:

The room was lovely, very clean, as was the bathroom, and a really good bed. The wall based tv was at a perfect height, not like in most hotels where you get a stiff neck if you try and watch tv. And the window actually opened, a rare thing these days. The shower was wonderful.

Cons:

There was a low step from the bedroom to the ensuite bathroom, which had no warning notice, and became quite an issue when walking between rooms, as we kept tripping on it. We ended up folding a bath towel and putting it on the floor to cover the step and smooth the entrance. There was also no information book inside the room.

Great choice for a Yorkshire break.
Pros:

Lovely hotel in a great location. Room was pristine and well furnished.
The staff were very helpful in all respects and the meals( both dinner and breakfasts) were very good. Breakfast manager was first class.
One small snag (a personal one really), sitting having a drink in the bar in the evening the background music was too loud to have a conversation without shouting. Probably not helped being a bit of an “old chap” but it was mentioned by a couple of other guests.
