Guest Reviews
- ivaylo (9/5): Breakfast was amazing - Freshly made breakfast None
- Julie (8/5): - Lovely breakfast ,lovely staff, lovely place
- Earl (7/5): Overall a pleasant stay at Orchard Club, if a little expensive. - Breakfasts excellent. Bed comfortable. Prior notice that we would be on top floor, with several flights of stairs would have been appreciated! I am 82 years old and I did not need several flights of stairs to climb every time we left the property. A lock on the bathroom door is needed.
- ALBERT (10/5): Really enjoyable stay, great room, great breakfast. - Excellent breakfast. I would thoroughly recommend staying here. N/A
- Gary (10/5): Absolutely lovely stay, staff fantastic and a magical breakfast to boot, would definitely stay again - Beautiful room and great location

Thank you for everything! - It was very spacious, clean, staff were very friendly and couldn’t do enough for you, the breakfast was delicious! Also great as there was room to park the car The mattress was a little too soft for me… but that’s just my personal preference due to back problems
- Marie (10/5): Excellent - It is in a very convenient location for the town centre bars and restaurants and near to the river .
The property is very clean , rooms are comfortable and has everything you need for a short stay ie : kettle, fridge and snacks to purchase if you get peckish
- Carol (8/5): Lovely stay in a clean and comfortable room with great breakfast. - Lovely room, very comfy bed. Breakfast was really good the pressure on the shower was really poor
- David (8/5): -
- David (10/5): -
- Sewell (7/5): Fine - Good breakfast and nice staff. Comfy room Dripping noise all night
- YEUNG KWAN (10/5): I'd stay there again. It was lovely. Breakfast was lovely too - I liked the decor. It is homely. The staff were nice and friendly.
- Lynda (10/5): - Location ideal room was lovely staff warm and friendly comfy bed slept well food was excellent would stay again for sure Only negative was waiting along time for breakfast ought to be a quicker service food made to order but just needed to be quicker really
- Sarah (8/5): - We had a large ground floor twin room which was perfect. Breakfast was lovely. Nothing
- Julie (8/5): Fabulous - Loved everything but our shower was very old
I have thick hair so Spennithorne of time getting shampoo out as not very powerful
BUT I can't gUlt staff for trying.g to rectify us Nd moving us if we needed . Its very old property and the room was superb so i managed 😀
- Stephenson (10/5): Home on the high street... - Staying in an historic building with bags of character, big comfortable rooms, lovely staff and great breakfasts...so the floorboards creak, the place is 300 years old man!
A lot of thought has gone into making the Orchard Club an 'experience', I would recommend it as a place to stay. Not being able to check in before 4pm
- Guest (9/5): -
- Iain (8/5): -
- joyce (10/5): - Location is great with plenty of parking.
The breakfast was excellent with lovely staff too.
Our bed was extremely comfortable The water in the shower was hot enough but the pressure was poor.
- DAVID (8/5): Comfortable stay - Location, friendly staff, good breakfast NA
- david (8/5): -
- Marilyn (8/5): Pleasant accommodation close to the centre of the lovely town of Knaresborough - The property was very attractive. The bedroom had a comfortable bed, two armchairs and a table, a mini bar and well stocked coffee & tea facilities.
The breakfast was wonderful Our bedroom faced on to a busy street, so there was some noise, although earplugs were provided
- Carole (9/5): Would definitely return. - Location was perfect. Breakfasts were excellent. Loved the lounge. Shower was superb. Spacious bedroom. Friendly efficient staff. Fridge in room. Although we didn’t need all the snacks and drinks that were available in the room, they were not overpriced. We were in Room 5. The bed was a superking which is always a bonus but the mattress although acceptable would benefit from an upgrade.
- Janet (8/5): Overall my stay was lovely and I would use the B&B again. - Excellent location and a great breakfast. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Bathroom was fine but a little dated.
- Rachel (8/5): A nice town centre hotel with a bit of character. Very comfortable - Excellent breakfast. Nice room. Comfy bed. Parking. Location Bathroom could do with an update.
- Snashys (8/5): - Convenient for the town centre and free parking.
Excellent breakfast with a wide range of options.
Complimentary eye masks . The building is shut from 12am to 4pm with no ability to check in, leave luggage or use the toilets if you have travelled. No staff on site at all, no night cover either in case of an emergency! No explanation of exactly what the emergency procedures are! It is a very old building with a clearly heightened fire risk.
For this reason, we probably wouldn't stop on the top floor again.
- Guest (10/5): - Breakfast especially Nothing
- Hartley (10/5): - Friendly staff. Lovely breakfast. Comfy room
- Ben (10/5): -
- Kulnan (8/5): Good for a night stay - Staff is very nice, lovely breakfast. Room is ok. Location not at the river/no view but short walking distance to the viewpoint/castle and market. It’s not a hotel as the name suggests. The building is closed 12:00-16:00. No staff around/no amenities. Parking entrance rather tight, we had a room out of the main building looking over parking lot.
- Julie (8/5): - Everything was great. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
I left my credit card at the hotel on the table and they posted it to me which was very much appreciated.
- Caroline (7/5): A nice stay that could be so much better with some investment. - The best thing about the place was the great, friendly and helpful staff who were lovely. I had a comfortable room and the continental elements of the breakfast were nice although the cooked breakfast wasn't too great. Please get them a decent toaster that works properly, they did the best with what they had but should be given decent equipment Not very appealing to have to go round the back, which was far from attractive and didn't create a good first impression. To then find a poor reception area which was basically a cupboard. A pity for the staff who do their best with what they've got. Would be so much nicer and more welcoming to go through the original front door from the main street to find a welcoming reception area.
- Robert (9/5): We couldn't have picked a better place to stay as it was convenient for everything we wanted to see. - The location was perfect for the local square and castle. It was close to the restaurants we booked and there are some nice pubs close by. Its on the flat which makes walking into town (100 yards) easy. The main bus station is 100 yards away.
Get a bus to Mother Shipton's Cave and the riverside ( 1 stop) to avoid a very steep hill.
The accommodation is 300 years old so expect stairs to your room. Request room 12 if you have mobility issues as its on the ground floor near the entrance.
The rooms are clean and tidy and the staff are very nice and welcoming. Coffee and tea facilities in the room.The breakfasts are freshly cooked and the service was great.
Free car parking is available to the rear of the property.
The place has character. Nothing
- ian (7/5): -
- MELANIE (4/5): Would not recommend - Breakfast Very tired and outdated. Dirty windows. Uncomfortable bed. Very expensive for what is was. Pictures not accurate
- vicky (10/5): - Lovely breakfast. Room clean and warm.
- Lorraine (10/5): -
- Karen (10/5): -
- Beverley Ann (7/5): -
- Karen (9/5): Lovely stay - Breakfast was excellent No wardrobe in room
- David (5/5): - Entrance and first impressions could improve
- Ben (10/5): -
- Bruce (9/5): Within minutes of town centre…no worries with car parking. - A very friendly atmosphere. Excellent breakfast.
- Michael (10/5): - The staff, the food and the room Nothing comes to mind
- Andrea (1/5): - The location was good. Unfortunately we decided not to stay at this property.
- Antony (9/5): Very pleasant experience and would stay again - Lovely staff. Nice big room with all the facilities you need. Nice breakfast We had a room overlooking the main road outside which did get a bit busy in the morning but we knew that would be a possibility when booking. It wasn’t bad enough to spoil the stay
- Susan Storey (10/5): -
- Suzanne (9/5): -
- jane (8/5): A lovely hotel large room great breakfast central location. We would defy stay here again - The room size was excellent a comfortable large bed and great car parking. A very central location and a lovely breakfast It was all great

- Deborah (7/5): - Parking, good breakfast, clean
- Brown (10/5): Excellent place to stop. - Excellent sized room, very comfortable and clean.
Excellent choices for Breakfast
Ideal location for town and Bus stop that busses run every Ten minutes.
- Laura (8/5): Excellent stay, great location and would definitely recommend - The location was great, staff really friendly and most helpful and the breakfast was delicious The only downside i’d say was the shower in our bathroom was really slow and not much pressure.
- Cherie (10/5): -
- Diane (5/5): - Lovely breakfast and friendly staff The room we had was on the very busy main street with traffic lights outside which meant revving engines and loud car radios. This meant it took a long time to get to sleep as the road was very busy until really late. The bed was comfy enough but it was a four poster and creaked every time you moved. It was nice and warm in the room in the morning but not that warm when we checked in.
- David (10/5): -
- Peter (9/5): exelant stay. - What's not to like at the Orchard Club Hotel? I sent a message to the property asking if we could park up in advance of booking in at 4.00 pm. The reply was yes, of course. We arrived at 12.45 to let it be known we had parked up. The young Lady asked if we would like to check in as the room was ready. The Hotel is more or less in the Town centre. The Hotel has a lot of quirky features in line with an older building. The bed was a super King and comfy, I say this with 50 years as a bed maker behind me. The breakfast was more than enough to fill you up for hours. Plus, all the staff were approachable and professional. Next time in Knaresborough, we shall try to book here. nothing was all good.
- Danielle (10/5): Excellent location was able to park before check in. Delicious breakfast - Lovely breakfast
- John (10/5): -
- Konstantinos (8/5): Ok - Very nice room and is a parking Unfortunately, I have heard with the front of the road and wash quite noisy
- Linden (9/5): Comfortable and enjoyable - The room size was great and a good choice of delicious breakfast Shower didn’t have much pressure
- JASON (8/5): Good short break, quirky inside , staff just great - Great friendly staff , comfy bed and a big breakfast An old building can be a little noisy from traffic at the front , not sure what they can do tho as it’s an older quirky building
- Adam (10/5): -
- John Fradley (9/5): -

- Hilton (10/5): -
- DAVID M (8/5): Knaresborough is a nice location, and it's only a short walk to the bus station, for other area's - a nice cosy single room for me, lovely breakfasts, of multiple choice. a nice communal lounge, all was well,
- Victoria (9/5): - Location staff clean comfortable great breakfast Nothing
- Adrian (9/5): -
- david (8/5): More of a guesthouse than a hotel - Comfy bed clean throughout
Good breakfast Reception didn’t exist only saw staff at breakfast
Front door inaccessible had to use rear entrance
Apple room has horrendous road noise throughout the night
- Pam (8/5): Recommended - Excellent location. Very comfortable room. Breakfast exceptional. Can't honestly think of anything.

- David (9/5): - Close to everything. Lovely rooms, fantastic breakfast, great staff. Everything was great
- Andrew (7/5): - Breakfast, Bed, Staff. It is on the main road and there is noise from the traffic.
- Kathryn (10/5): Fabulously warm and friendly establishment; great quality, comfort and value for money. - The Orchard Club offered everything it said it would and much more besides! I had a double room which was beautifully warm and cosy and was really well presented. Lovely comfortable bed. There were plenty of complimentary refreshments on offer in the room along with a bottle of wine, prosecco and snacks available at a reasonable cost with a beautiful lounge downstairs to enjoy these in if you so choose. Beautiful touches such as a radio and a hot water-bottle added to the comfort of the room. Complimentary parking was available just behind the property. 5-10 minute walk into the heart of Knaresborough. Great staff; friendly, kind and courteous. Breakfast, included in the price, was amazing! I had the best porridge (with sultanas steeped in whiskey!) that I have ever had in my life - fabulous! Asked at the end of the stay if there was anything that could be improved! There really wasn’t! Wonderful hospitality, wonderful stay altogether. Would definitely highly recommend. Absolutely nothing! Loved everything about it!

Parking was nearby. Breakfast was outstanding and staff were very pleasant. N/A
