The hotel is perfectly placed for Driffield, right on the high street and an easy walk to the train station. The staff are great and very friendly, spot on full English breakfast. Although the hotel is a little dated it still has its charm and very clean.

Great for a weekend away

Great location in the centre of the town. The room was spacious but dated. It was clean though. We didn't eat in the restaurant so can't comment about that. We did visit the spa and had a lovely afternoon enjoying the facilities.

Good Old World Feel.

Generally the accommodation is functional. The bathroom extractor fan noise from other rooms was intrusive.The bed was very comfortable and large. The main building is 280 years old and I assume listed. It is quaint and interesting and understandably creeky.

No Frills

The hotel itself is fascinating. An old place with many interesting features. The people in charge are very nice. We didn't eat there but saw some of the food and it looked good. The room we had overlooked the street which was quite noisy at night but got less noisy after midnight. The room itself was very old fashioned and tired. Clean and functional but tired.

Unfortunately, the hotel is very dated. The decor and rooms could do with updating. There was an agricultural show locally that we were attending and there was no chef in the hotel to offer an evening meal.

Desperately needs money spent on the place

It’s a step back in time when you walk into this hotel, although welcoming. I was greeted warmly, checked in and shown to my room. The access to the room was not that nice, and I felt like I was heading to the kitchens. The room itself, though clean, is in desperate need of an update (as is the whole hotel to be honest) with pink bedding, and a sofa covered with a blanket that I really did not want to sit on. I paid quite a premium price for my room, which was not reflected in the quality of what I received.

Never missed that dartboard!

Chose this hotel, because of the pool and spa which turned out to be nothing like the pictures. The staff are friendly, but the natives are not, it reminded me of the dartboard scene in American werewolf. Old Hotel, which has its charm, with creaky floorboards to keep you up at night as well as the paper, thin walls, put a jumper on for breakfast if you're going in the winter
