Location
Guest Reviews
Location is perfect in centre of a pretty village
This was the third time we've stayed at the Royal Oak, so obviously we know the place and what to expect.
We like that the rooms are easy to access - only one flight of stairs and no long corridors to negotiate with luggage - and that it's right in the centre of Helmsley.
No dedicated parking spaces, and using those right outside the door means either paying to park or moving the car early.
Beer, food and rooms
The establishment has a licence till 1am not 12 as stated and "the noise disturbance " you mention after booking, was so loud it was vibrating two of the bedroom floors. 77.6 Db was recorded in my room.
I liked the convenience of it being a place where you could book a one night stay in the area. There really isn't much more to the venue that was enjoyable. Good for a one night kick off to a big walk, but that's all.
Music was playing in the bar below our room until midnight and live music kicked up at 9pm til 11pm. The bed was extremely uncomfortable with individual springs kicking into my back if I moved at all during the night.
Central location
N/A
Its a great location in Helmsley market square.
No toiletries or soap available, the dispensers were empty. Only one bath towel left in room when there were 2 people staying.
Location was perfect
No breakfast option even though states bed and breakfast on outside of property. Bed was very poor quality, creepy and worn
Great location in central Helmsley. Staff were friendly and helpful.
They are rooms above the pub, so there was noise from the live music. But we were warned about this and the music did stop when they said it would.
Location was excellent.
Bathroom was dirty. Asked for it to be cleaned and they only cleaned the toilet. Don’t get rid of the dirt or spiders around the sink!
Had lovely meal there
Breakfast Not provided to my considerable surprise and annoyance : only source did not open until 9am
Pillows seemed particularly hard
Excellent location
Louis was a standout help with our booking in when we arrived, and helped us with the refund and book out shortly afterwards
The room’s bathroom was filthy, it had not been cleaned since the previous occupier. The bedroom furniture, especially the bed looked as if was a reclaim from a skip. The carpet was un-hoovered, there was hair on the bedding, and a large, taped up crack in the bathroom window. No towels available on our arrival at 13.15 and still none available at 16.30
