The Inn South Stainley

The hotel is so clean, the room looks like a brand new. Food is amazing, we had dinner (grill) and breakfast. Definitely recommended! It was a great stay for us.

Amazing from start to finish. Breakfast was delicious, great options. Room (lodge suites) we’re warm, noise proof and clean Food, slightly on the more expensive side, however good size portions and delicious so worth the extra money! Attention to detail throughout our was unreal. We will certainly be back!!

Anyone looking for a short stay, or base for visiting Fountains Abbey or other local attractions should consider the Inn. The property is clean bright and feels new. The room we stayed in was small but beautifully finished and set out. All the meals were really good, Haddock was huge and the Steak pie delicious. Staff friendly and helpful. All so good.

Good place for weekend break. The hotel staff were all friendly, welcoming and happy to help. We mentioned it was our 50th wedding anniversary and we were surprised by a lovely complimentary desert.

Has potential but needs a few extras! Lovely looking room, with a great shower. Visitors should be aware that 10 of the rooms are in a separate building, which we were in. The room only had a radiator, and no aircon, which meant when the heating was pumping out it was boiling. There was a fan in the room but took forever to cool down. When we turned the radiator down it was then freezing in the morning. The mattress was too firm for us and the pillows are terrible. One pillow is not enough, two is too much and both far too firm! There is also no fridge, which is silly when the room is big enough and you’re away from the main building. There is also no shelf/stand to put your luggage on. Again, there is plenty of room to add this. Breakfast was disappointing, with only standard tea and coffee included in the price. We waited over 30mins for our food to be served. I had the boiled eggs which were really nice, but my partner ordered poached eggs (these were nice), mushrooms and tomatoes. The mushrooms were burnt and crunchy and the tomatoes were still hard. We notified the waiter who took them back, but when the new plate was delivered, this time they were both under cooked. Overall, we would not stay again.

Celebrating with friends. Comfortable, parking easy, close to Ripon, Harrogate, Knaresborough, lovely drives nearby. Menus provided good choice, staff excellent.
