Healey Hotel

Sorry to say this place is cheap for a reason ....carpets were filthy....dust everywhere ....heating didnt work ....window was open on arrival (december)everything that was bolted to the bathroom wall was hanging off ....shower tray filled up whilst showering and had the last persons soap stuck to the base ....came back to the room late and the guy on reception was asleep under the reception desk ....need i go on?? ...

My room clearly had not been cleaned prior to my stay. When i arrived (at about 2am as I’m a travelling musician), i popped to the loo but first, needed to wipe off brown smears with a baby wipe, which wasn’t very nice. I went to bed and the bed was ok. I woke up however with some red sparkley sequins stuck to me - i didn’t go to bed with any sequin-adorned attire so i’m not quite sure where they came from. Once I stood up and walked to the bathroom, i stood on a rather sharp sewing needle protruding from the carpet. It hurt, but i’m guessing it may have hurt more if it was a child that stood on it instead!! My room was freezing, but that was attributed to the fact that my window could not physically close. It also had a big crack in one of the panes. There was no information for guests in the room, so myself and one of my friends met in the restaurant and hoped we were still in time for breakfast. There was no menu, and when asked what was available, the member of staff hesitated and offered bacon and eggs. We decided to just have a pot of tea... then minutes later had emails confirming a payment of £5 each charged to our rooms. £10 for a pot of tea? I think it may be cheaper going to the Ritz. Overall, definitely going to request a refund. Photos taken and everything. I’m all up for supporting these independent hotels, especially seeing as i’m travelling around the UK all the time. The price was fab for the room, but still not worth the money.

Lovely hotel and great staff decor a little worn and bar and kitchen not yet fully running when I stayed but take away orders were arranged each evening and the breakfasts were very good indeed. The local pub THE GEORGE is very nice and there are 2 general store shops on the doorstep.Will stay again anything it lacks is reflected in the price and made up for by the lovely staff.

Great stay yet again. The room was quiet and clean. Thank you.

Excellent experience as always. My children and I are regular visitors and will keep returning.

Loved the quaint location and such a great place to relax.

Bar needs a bit updating but still nice clean area

Staff friendly but our room wasn’t ready when we arrived at 630 pm still had bed to make. Next morning breakfast took ages and we had to ask for basic things like tea spoons and milk

Really dirty room fire alarm set off at0650 by kitchen staff burning toast young girls running about like headless chickens not knowing how to turn off fire alarm no response from management did email hotel 4 days later still no response book here at your peril I’d avoid it like the plague.

I was 'enjoying' a charity cycle ride and Batley was one of my stopover places. A quick search on Hotels.com revealed this very reasonably priced establishment. Check in was easy and ran smoothly thanks to the friendly and efficient staff I needed secure storage for my bike and was upgraded to a room along the function room corridor where I could easily put my bike and keep it safe. The room was spacious, a lovely large bed, TV, tea and coffee making facilities, trouser press. I had an evening meal in the bar area. I usual plump for a steak or similar but went for the 6oz burger instead. It was fantastic. Not much on draught at the bar, but plenty of bottled beers to tempt you. Breakfast was extra but again this was reasonably priced and very tasty. I'd happily recommend this place to anyone doing in the Batley area. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again
