The Kestrel by Innkeeper's Collection

Bedroom was great and breakfast very good.

Unfortunately the Kestrel was closing down for refurbishment the day after our visit, a fact we weren't informed about before booking. This meant that stocks were being run down and so there were limited options for draught beer (all similar largers) upon arrival, and the range dwindled during the evening leaving pretty much Hobson's choice at the bar.

Good location for Yorkshire Showground.

Very poor sound proofing, very hard to sleep. Creaky floors, you can hear your next door neighbours conversations, banging doors all night.

Staff were excellent and very welcoming. They even called me to reserve a table for dinner and kept the kitchen open !

Quick check-in and check-out. Nicely decorated room and a comfortable firm bed.

Very poor soundproofing. Lots of noise throughout the night. What's worse is just 10 minutes after entering our room at 8pm, staff knocked and told us to keep the noise down due to complaints. We were only chatting and watching TV at normal volume. It’s disappointing to be blamed when the real issue seems to be the hotel’s insulation. Also, the desks and bedside tables felt quite sticky to the touch.

Our room was comfortable and clean. The shower was great. All of the staff we met were friendly and helpful. The cooked breakfast was good. It is close to Harrogate and the A1M.

Our second stay at The Kestrel, and again it did not dissappint. Excelent in every way - really comfortable room, first rate food in the resturant and great service. Top notch.

Nothing, all perfect
