Wonderful room overlooking the canal
Our stay was wonderful. On arrival I asked if our room was overlooking the canal- it wasn’t but the receptionist swiftly changed it. Lovely room with balcony - the bed was really comfy & a handy fan was useful. The breakfasts were fantastic with big choice. I loved the fresh fruit salad. Staff all very friendly & helpful. Very easy to walk into town along the towpath - we had an excellent visit

2 night stay
Very comfortable 2 night stay. Cleanliness of room was good and bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast was good. We ate in the hotel restaurant on one evening and the only negative comment was that they forgot to bring our drinks initially and the food service was slow. The meal was excellent when we got it.

One night stay
One night stay. Modern updated room with great bathroom and bath. The taps were a concern since the water could shoot out the sink!
Bed comfortable but didn’t like the pine posts made to resemble four poster bed. They detracted from the room making it appear smaller and one post was in the way of the tv.
Room hot but there was an air conditioning unit that could be used.

Cleanliness
Stay was good.
Food good!
Cleanliness let it down abit.
Few hairs on bathroom floor and a couple on toilet.
Came down to breskfast and dog hair on stairs and on the floor in the bar area alot of dog hairs.
I understand they let pets stay which i dont mind but the hair needs to be removed

The hotel is very convenient for the local facilities. The staff were great and the room was very nice apart from the very squeaky door and the lift wasn’t working which caused an issue carrying cases up a steep staircase.

Great location, nice bar tea and restaurant. This is an old building so plumbing was noisy. Presentation of cooked breakfast was a bit unappealing particularly eggs

Herriots is in a great location to be able to walk into Skipton, we chose to walk via the canal which was lovely. Our room was comfortable with a very small en suite. We ate in their Rhubarb restaurant, portions weren’t large but very tasty, the lady who was front of the house was excellent. Breakfast was good although very busy. Altogether a good stay.
