Guest Reviews
- Len (7/5): Potentially a very good hotel spoilt by two or three poorly trained staff members and bad music. - Very good breakfast. friendly and helpful staff. Good parking arrangements and access. Confused identity between Harriot's Hotel and Rhubarb Restaurant. Menu for dinner turned out to be same and was very limited and not as leaflets advertising 'event food.' Wretched piped music was overpowering and off-putting in bar and reception area. When staff were asked if it could be turned down a bit, there was no attempt made to address the issue despite my wife and I being the only customers there. Staff busy cashing up and mopping floors at around 10pm made us feel unwelcome. Same bad music playing at breakfast.
- David (5/5): - Location Shower was ****
- Dennis (7/5): Good apart from the stairs. - Excellent breakfast. No lift and we were on the second floor of an old building. Tough climb in your seventies. We signed in an empty public bar but the music was so loud I couldn’t make out what our host was say.
- Ernest (8/5): Central location, good friendly staff - Good food, clean comfortable room, excellent location Having to climb 2 sets of stairs to reach the room. They should take into account the age of their visitors when allocating rooms when there is no lift
- David (8/5): -
- Trevor (8/5): - staff and breakfast was excellent
- Pamela (10/5): - Great location, comfortable clean, modern bathroom, fantastic breakfast
- Una (7/5): -
- Cole (8/5): - Close to canal walk, castle and woods. Easy to get takeaway nearby. No lift for large cases.
- linda haddow (10/5): - Breakfast was lovely and nice and hot
- Mcdeidre (10/5): - We liked how close it was to Skipton & our room looked over the canal which was lovely. The room was lovely & it was very clean. The staff were really friendly & helpful. Breakfast was good & both nights we stayed we ate in the hotel which was good. That the bar closed at 11pm but it wasn't a big deal we'd stop there again.
- CATHERINE (10/5): Enjoyable stay at the Herriot - Lovely hotel had a nice meal in Rhubarb restaurant and the breakfast the next morning was lovely would stay again but request a ground level room There is no lift up to the top floor
- Anthony (8/5): A very enjoyable stay - Facilities were very good and staff were exceptional We had to walk outside to go for breakfast
- Colin (9/5): - Room very nice and very good breakfast N/A
- kevin (8/5): -
- Sharon (9/5): -
- Liam (3/5): Not for me. Apologies. - N/a Rooms were tiny, very old. Paper thin walls so I could hear people snoring in other rooms, or walking around on the stairs which were creaking. Room was also uncomfortably hot. Tv didn’t work. I wanted to checkout at 5am but no staff on, or nowhere to leave key, so had to leave it in bedroom door.
- Allan (2/5): - Staff were friendly and helpful Restaurant food was poor had to send 2 meals back and waited 45 minutes for breakfast very poor quality couldn't eat it
- Parry (9/5): - All was good Nothing
- Smith (10/5): Lovely breakfast and parking onsite - Central lovely clean accommodation N/A
- Dalton (3/5): Disappointed with noise - Breakfast was ok location was beautiful When we arrived got told there was a function on this was actually below our room with music and karaoke blasting away till midnight . Would not have booked for 2 nights if we already knew about it this before arrival
- Emma (8/5): Nice place - Room was beautiful Sunday roast was amazing Good location and nice canal to walk down Tv did not have a HDMI port so could not use firestick in room
- Welsh (9/5): It's our second visit, lovely hotel. - Lovely hotel, we will be back Nothing
- PETER (9/5): -
- Lesley (9/5): Had a lovely stay, everyone was welcoming and friendly, evening meal and breakfast were delicious. - Location, accessibility, size, peace and quiet, restaurant. Check in was easy, off road parking. Bed was hard.
- Ian (8/5): A good choice of hotel, close to station and the town with parking - All fine but not exceptional The water temperature on the shower was hard to control (room 16)
- Stephen John (8/5): - The location is great for the station & the town centre! And also for accessing the canal towpath for some lovely walks Nothing not to like
- Bingham (9/5): A lovely hotel, we would definitely stay there again. - The room was lovely, very clean, as was the bathroom, and a really good bed. The wall based tv was at a perfect height, not like in most hotels where you get a stiff neck if you try and watch tv. And the window actually opened, a rare thing these days. The shower was wonderful. There was a low step from the bedroom to the ensuite bathroom, which had no warning notice, and became quite an issue when walking between rooms, as we kept tripping on it. We ended up folding a bath towel and putting it on the floor to cover the step and smooth the entrance. There was also no information book inside the room.
- Sarah (7/5): Noisy badly laid out room was a disappointment - Good location with free parking and an easy walk into town. Our room overlooked the very busy, very noisy road. Windows were insufficient to block out noise. Window blinds were very awkward to get to and even once closed did a poor job of blocking out light. The bathroom was a tiny sliver of a room with a deep step down into it - nowhere to put anything, tap on basin loose and toilet flush almost hanging off the wall. Shower looked OK but so tight to actually access it we didn't bother to use it. Breakfast distinctly uninspiring. A disappointing stay for us, but with a quieter room with better designed bathroom I can see that this could be a good place to stay if visiting Skipton.
- Escape23581550415 (10/5): Great choice for a Yorkshire break. - Lovely hotel in a great location. Room was pristine and well furnished. The staff were very helpful in all respects and the meals( both dinner and breakfasts) were very good. Breakfast manager was first class. One small snag (a personal one really), sitting having a drink in the bar in the evening the background music was too loud to have a conversation without shouting. Probably not helped being a bit of an “old chap” but it was mentioned by a couple of other guests.
- John n Tash (9/5): Great place to stay - Location was perfect, staff very friendly and helpful Had nibbles in bar aswell as evening meal both were spot on Good selection of beers and wine and reasonably priced for a hotel The cake from the bar was too morish and we made pigs of ourselves lol
- Derek (9/5): -
- Bell (10/5): - Excellent location for railway station and bus station. Short walk to town centre,. Food excellent and staff friendly and helpful.
- A2120SRelliet (10/5): Birthday celebrations - Held my 30th birthday celebrations at the hotel, with friends and family staying. The team could not do enough and were fantastic in the organisation of the whole event. Chris the event planner was meticulous in the details and the whole team was incredible on the night. It really meant I could enjoy the event with my friends and family.
- Mark (7/5): -
- John (9/5): Another lovely staff in this friendly hotel just a short canal side walk from the town - Rooms and facilities all good. Staff are really friendly , the breakfasts and dinner were both great. Dinner was delicious ! Could do with more milk in the rooms.
- Expedition815643 (10/5): Amazing stay with 10/10 food - Had a wonderful stay Saturday night for the 7 course taster menu x Food was amazing all the staff very friendly x Highly recommend and we will be back x
- Helen (10/5): The room had all amenities, compact but comfortable. - Friendly staff, close to canal, short walk into town
- Redshaw (10/5): - Evening meal was delicious 😋 10/10
- Telco1 (6/5): Excellent hotel let by badly stained carpet (pet pee?) - Location was perfect. Short canal walk to town. Great atmosphere and very good staff. I stayed in the Dales room for 2 nights which overall were good but a few faults. Very comforatble bed and very quiet. The carpet however needs deep steam cleaning due to bad stains probably from pet pee. There is a £15 charge for pets so no excuse for the state of the carpet. The bath was a little unstable when getting out and there are no shaver sockets anywhere for an electric tooth brush. Luckilly mine was fully charged. The price was reasonable but I would have expected complimentary water and biscuits to be in place. Breakfast was perfect, compliments to chef and the waiter/waitresses attentive. All in all a very pleasant stay that could have been 5 stars with a clean carpet and a few extras as noted.
- Suzanne (9/5): I would recommend this place to stay as long as you are able to do stairs - Nice atmosphere, pleasant staff, good food on Sunday evening and reasonably priced. Easy to walk into Skipton along the canal. The stairs no lifts. We had a superior room and it was really lovely. Having to wait until exactly 3o’clock to book in. First time I have encountered that
- lesley (10/5): - Beautiful hotel Staff so friendly brilliant location
- Miriam (9/5): -
- deborahpL2261RS (10/5): Beautiful, relaxing stay! - Me and my partner came to stay from Wednesday 8th April till sunday 12th mini birthday break my partner John had stayed here before as it is dog friendly. A lovely stay looking out on the canal! All staff brilliant the only thing was when been out and come back to hotel bar which closed at 11pm so some nights we ended up going back up to room but would love to return again. Please add tea and biscuits in the room nice with a cup of tea! Also the bath was brilliant enjoyed it every night but does need a bath mat outside bath thankfully i had took a spare shower mat as most places we have stayed at haven't got one but getting in and out of the bath needs some hand rails.
- Christine (7/5): Ok, at this time unlikely to stay again - On the canal bank. Good position. Food overpriced and problems with our order.
- andrew (9/5): Fabulous - All of our stay Shower was difficult to control
- G8891RUkatiel (10/5): A relaxed break - We recently visited Herriots hotel, it was very clean and cosy the weather wasn’t great so we have food in their restaurant rather The staff was so friendly and polite, Susan especially she greeted us on arrival took our Oder, helped with special requirements, served us in good time The food was well presented and tasty the roast beef was so tender we really did enjoy our visit there and we definitely would definitely recommend staying here
- John (10/5): Lovely jubilee - Lovely room food was top nosh Bar was excellent location superb will definitely be booking agin The only thing i can pick on is it should have a separate shower .Bath was huge but water went everywhere
- julietP9786RL (10/5): Fantastic Sunday Dinner - Had an excellent Sunday dinner at Rhubarb restaurant, the best we have had. The food was amazing. Chris & his team looked after us & our small dog, nothing was too much trouble. I had roast pork & my husband had gammon. The yorkshire puddings, potatoes, vegetables were great, perfectly cooked, all served by Lily. We even managed a Rubarb sticky toffee pudding, delicious. We will definitly be going back.
- susanlL1940RZ (10/5): Gateway to the dales - Comfortable hotel and room. Convenient for the town and exploring the countryside. Good breakfast with flexible options.
- 357TonyB357 (10/5): A wonderful celebration at a superb venue. - Absolutely amazing celebration of my wife's 'special' birthday. The location was perfect, across from the train station, allowing guests to avoid driving. Having said that, the car park is big and convenient. The entire evening ran like clockwork, expertly arranged by Chris. The food was excellent, the staff (waitresses, bar staff) were wonderful. The d j, Liam played much of my playlist and got most guests onto the dance floor to create a fantastic atmosphere. The venue has everything from function room to lounge to conservatory; something to satisfy everyone. A fabulous occasion. We would thoroughly recommend Herriot's.
- Moffatt (8/5): -

- Jay (8/5): - The food was superb and the restaurant staff were excellent in catering to my wife’s allergies.
- Lesley (7/5): It was a pleasant stay but felt The cost of £290 too expensive - Breakfast brilliant, location good I booked the most expensive room with shower, it had a bath with shower head, they changed our room, we excepted a cheaper room for my convenience, shower particularly, they were obligingly but I still felt let down.
- CHRISTINE (8/5): - The convenience for getting into town and the ability to walk along the canal. Heating set much too high, and the stairs to the second floor felt very uneven.

- Andy (8/5): Good stay; will stay again. - Excellent stay at Herriots Hotel. I liked the room, and breakfast was excellent. The service for breakfast was prompt. I had trouble finding my sister's flat nearby. I asked at the desk, showing them the address and was told "It's right next door." No it wasn't; it's about a quarter of a mile down the road.

- angelhairleigh (10/5): Lovely short stay - We had a lovely short stay at this hotel. The staff were really helpful on arrival and we found this to be the case throughout our stay. Our canal view room was perfect, very clean and comfy beds with a pretty view too. Breakfast here was excellent on both days, lots of choice and cooked breakfast was all really nice. We had an evening meal in the restaurant on our first night and couldn’t fault that either, 3 courses were all tasty and good value with excellent service. Location is great beside the canal and a few minutes walk to the centre of town. We would certainly stay again!
- Melanie (8/5): Well positioned hotel with friendly staff with lovely breakfast. - Well positioned hotel in short distance to centre which you could walk either roadside or via canal side. Breakfast very good and all staff very friendly and helpful. Having a decent sized car park was also good. Rooms were very clean.
- Marian (9/5): Very pleasant - Location N/A

- Mason (10/5): - All good
- K2882YRjanen (10/5): Super hotel ideally located for train station and town - This is a lovely hotel just opposite the train station and a very short walk into Skipton town centre. The staff were all very pleasant and eager to help. Booking a room with lift access made this an ideal place for those with any mobility issues. The decor is fresh and modern. Food was excellent both evening meal and breakfast
- Anne (8/5): Comfortable & convenient - Location , spacious room & bathroom, clean A lot of noise travelling up from below the room & from the rooms above.
- Valerie (9/5): - Staff very friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious. The hotel was central and had parking. Sliding door into bathroom.
- lynnmW6218EJ (10/5): The Best Hotel & Staff in Skipton ❤️ - We have just returned from a weekend at the Herriot and cannot praise the staff and hotel enough. From the cleaning staff, waitresses, waiters, We have had the best time. Great breakfast with plenty of choice, we also had our evening meal & afternoon tea at the hotel during our long week end break & it was amazing, only managed a few names but Chris, Susan & hopefully we got this right Amera? apologise if this is incorrect (tall lady with the best Afro ) so hard working they never stopped & could not do enough to ensure our stay was memorable & it definitely was, Chris was helpful checking us in & had great local knowledge in fact all the staff there are just the best. Even the gentleman we met cleaning rooms was such a happy polite gentleman telling us whilst beaming with pride he has been working there for 15 years, which speaks volumes hey.. We cannot recommend this hotel & staff highly enough it’s definately so much better than a three* we will definately be back. Thank you Chris & team for the best stay. xx
- Mandy (10/5): Excellent stay in a lovely location - Our whole stay was excellent, breakfast was really nice, great choice and we stayed for evening meal twice and it was delicious especially the sunday roast Bit trivial - coffee machine, coffee's were always cold, in the morning we just had the filter which was guaranteed hot
- F3297SSlouisew (10/5): Deserves 4 star at least for this hotel - Had an absolute fantastic stay the food should have a Michelin star as a chef myself attention to detail was outstanding...excellent food and presentation. Great team of staff in the hotel all seem to get on well and enjoy looking after guests. Definitely will be coming back again soon
- Rawes (10/5): - Lovely clean rooms. We stayed in the wharf suite, superb. Had dinner and breakfast there. Super quality food.

- graham1920 (6/5): Mixed report - I can understand how there are so many excellent reviews for this hotel. The location is ideal for a walk into Skipton, the railway station is 400 yds away, the car park is easily accessible and the staff were very helpful and pleasant. Our 3 night stay commenced with Sunday lunch which was lovely, hot, with four types of vegetables, but sadly no table linen (my wife noticed this), just the plate placed on the table. After lunch, our room was available (Wharf Room No 26) and our first impression of it was lovely - large with a 4 poster bed, double settee and a large bathroom. Sadly, that was the good report. Staying in the room for 3 nights we noticed the small issues becoming more numerous:- first the bathroom, it took 4 to 5 minutes for the hot water to appear; there wasn’t any shelving to place cosmetics, shampoos etc whether for daily usage and particularly when using the bath. Whilst in the bath, it was impossible to “top the water up” as the waterfall tap was located at the side centre of the bath and would burn you as you could not move out of the way. To top it all, once in the bathroom (going through a flimsy non private sliding door) one was greeted with a 3 inch step which is bad enough in daylight but as we found horrendous and dangerous) during the night. To the bedroom:- one had to be 7 feet tall to open, close or tilt the blinds as the cords were out of reach. We noticed on the eve of our last night because of the change in wind direction that there was a substantial gap in one of the windows which was causing it bang consistently and was only remedied by wedging a piece of folded paper in between which then left us at whim of the cold wind coming in. Whether properly fitted double glazing would have helped, I don’t think so, but the noise from the outside beeping of the pedestrian crossing was incessant. A small fridge was available to us in our room, fortunately it was portable and one could move it as it was placed 2 feet from one’s pillow and it was of course very noisy. These are all small issues that on there own may not be much but as a whole they did not contribute to an enjoyable stay. Breakfast was fine, hot and good produce. A bit too much of a self service approach apart from delivering the hot breakfast. I am not one to complain out of hand but I raised these issues with reception upon departure and was told to put them on Tripadvisor🤷🏻♂️.
- W6084DYlesleyh (10/5): Thank you team Herriots. - We had visiting family from the USA and Southport who were treated royally when they stayed at the hotel for 3 nights from the 1st March. The rooms were sumptuous, spacious and overlooked the canal which made them quiet with tranquil views. The hotel was ideally situated for trains, trips by bus and gentle walks into town. The staff were so friendly, offering them a warm welcome, making their stay enjoyable and memorable. Thank you team Herriots.
- BRIAN (9/5): - Excellent hotel and staff. Convenient for rail station and town No lift

- Ambassador704354 (10/5): An absolute gem! - I had a lovely stay at Herriots on my first trip to the UK. This hotel is clean, quiet, nicely decorated, and the staff were pleasant and helpful. It is ideally located just across the street from the Skipton railway station. The canal is directly behind the hotel, which makes for a beautiful walk to Aireville Park or into town, Skipton Castle, and Skipton Castle Woods. The food at the hotel restaurant, the Rhubarb, was delicious. I'll definitely be back!
- O4154XGsarahl (10/5): Birthday Weekend - I recently stayed at Herriots Hotel for my birthday weekend and had such a lovely experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly helpful, welcoming and attentive nothing was too much trouble. The food was absolutely amazing, beautifully presented and full of flavour. It really made the weekend feel extra special. The atmosphere throughout the hotel was warm and relaxed, which made it the perfect place to celebrate. Overall, I had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend Herriots Hotel for a special occasion or a relaxing break away. I’ll definitely be returning! Thank you everyone!
- stevedG6854AY (10/5): Loved this place - Loved this place. Great staff. Great food. Comfy and relaxed and well situated by the canal. Will go back whenever I’m up that way Thank you
- MAS653 (4/5): Could do much better - Cooked Breakfast took an age to come on Saturday morning, nearly an hour. The excuse was given that they only had one chef, that is not a good enough excuse for a 3 star hotel. Save you’re money and go to Morrisons over the road for around half the price. The bar was a big bone of contention for me for two reasons. Firstly it’s the first Hotel bar I have been to that closes at 11:00pm on a weekend and physically sends you to bed, “make your way to your rooms” was, I think the term used. This must be a big turn away for many guests, it is for me. Secondly, one particular member of the bar staff, dark hair, long decorated nails, upset one of our friends so much it made her cry, just because the member of the bar staff (manager possibly) overheard something in our conversation that she thought was directed at her when she told us to go to bed. Not professional, not needed and the aggression was way over the top. She did apologise but only after just about our whole group had to tell her she was wrong to assume what she did. In my room, when I arrived there was an awful smell in the room, I reported it to someone in the bar who said it would be looked at, on Friday afternoon, I told a cleaner, it was exactly the same when I left on Sunday. A awful sewage smell, horrible and not what I expected.
- Nevincom (10/5): A VERY PLEASANT STAY AT THE HERIOT HOTEL SKIPTON - We really enjoyed our stay at The Heriot, on arrival the staff were very welcoming and informative the room was spacious with all the amenities and the bed was very comfortable. We where on package bed breakfast and evening meal and in the evening we had a delicious 2 course meal we where a party of 5 and everyone enjoyed the meals once again the staff where very accommodating making every effort to make our experience a very pleasant experience then we had drinks from the well stocked bar that evening. After a good nights sleep we noticed at breakfast that we would not be able to sit together for breakfast but once again the staff intervened and put up an extra large table in the next room which was great as we where all going our separate ways at check out breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice for everyone. All in all I would highly recommend the Heriot Hotel at Skipton if you are visiting the area it has a spacious car park and is also just across the road from train station and in easy walking distance of the town centre .
- Stephanie (5/5): Room comfortable, but excluding this, overall poor quality considering the cost per night - The bed was comfortable, hot water on tap, lady at reception was lovely. Where do I start? I was very disappointed. My husband and I had our wedding reception at this hotel in July 2019 and we, plus our guests, stayed for a few nights, so this stay for my husband’s FUNERAL, with the same guests, brought back a lot of memories, so it UPSET me a great deal that the hotel was a disappointment. 1. Lack of security 2. Poor cleanliness 3. Oversensitive staff using insulting language directed at my guests with no apology 4. EXTREMELY poor quality breakfast - at £110 per night, you expect something a bit more special than a bland, tasteless, very small portioned full English breakfast cooked in a microwave, and on my last morning, my friends staying in the hotel had joined me for breakfast and as the chef had to cook 5 breakfasts at the same time, it took 55 minutes to arrive. It was a good job I wasn’t in a rush. 5. Lack of room on this platform to be able to give sufficient details for you to be able to do anything about it. I do hope you will follow this up and ask for details so that remedial action can be taken by the hotel. Unfortunately the only thing that differentiated this hotel stay from one on the cheap in eg a Travelodge etc was the location.
- Mark (4/5): Location good, bar needs a rethink, breakfast way overpriced, staff interactions need improvement. - Good location, ample sitting areas. Cooked Breakfast took an age to come on Saturday morning, nearly an hour. The excuse was given that they only had one chef, that is not a good enough excuse for a 3 star hotel. Save you’re money and go to Morrisons over the road for around half the price. The bar was a big bone of contention for me for two reasons.

- Andrew (8/5): Little things make a big difference, I.e tap/wc shouldn’t be loose, but overall not bad. We would - Nice room with big bed Convenient if arriving by train as station just across the road Easy access to canal path Windows should be triple glazed as hotel on a main road. Dressing room lamp not working. Bathroom tap and wc press were both loose Had to remind breakfast staff that we were waiting a while, and someone else who arrived at breakfast after us was served before us.
- louise (9/5): Lovely Hotel in a Perfect Location. - Perfect location. 10minute stroll along the canal into town. Despite being on a main road it was quiet at night. Staff were friendly and efficient. The hotel is looked after and has a lovely lounge to relax in. Food was excellent - we had dinner the first night. Very reasonable. Breakfast was plentiful with good choices. Parking available before and after check in. If I had to say something negative : Bedrooms are too hot at night. The background music was a bit too loud.
- Katie (9/5): - Nice seating area and bar/restaurant- we had dinner and the food was delicious. Breakfast was great, lots of choice and freshly cooked english breakfast option. Lovely location right next to the canal- a nice walk into town.
- laurenhayleya (10/5): Lovely hotel - Perfect location, opposite the train station and directly along the canal. When arriving I was greeted very warmly and checked into my hotel room promptly despite being a little earlier than they check in time. Staff all very helpful and friendly, recommending places to visit (very good knowledgeable recommendations) our hotel room was comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was delicious and a good selection of continental and cooked breakfast. Would recommend this hotel to anyone thinking of booking.
- Peter (8/5): -
- Yasar (10/5): - Good Good
- James (7/5): Overall very nice - Location and parking Room was good shortage of power points near bed shower door too narrow and light switch behind the door was a problem room 24
- alan (8/5): Overall excellent - Excellent stay Very good for price Breakfast was excellent apart from the sausage Which was of poor quality But that is quite the norm at a lot of hotels Can’t understand why hotels can’t seem to find a reasonable local sausage Rather than one that the local chip shop would sell
- SMandEG (6/5): Not as good as it used to be - Stayed at the hotel many times, and I think it used to be 4 stars. But this time, we found it to be a little impersonal. The reception being at the bar rather than where it used to be was not ideal and not very welcoming. The room was far too noisy as it faced out onto the road. I'd say book a canal room if you are going to stay. The toiletries were on the shelf behind the loo rather than being in the sink / bath area. The breakfast was adequate, and the mattress was a bit lumpy. Also, the car parking was a bit odd as there were cars parked behind us, so it was difficult to get out of the space. On the plus side the location is great for the town centre and the staff were polite.
