Dalesgate Hotel - Self Check IN

Make sure you receive the code for entry BEFORE you arrive. I didn’t receive it! Called the 0800 number and eventually got access. The hotel and room is very dated, it felt like going back to the 70’s. I could not stand properly up to urinate in the toilet the space was so tight. Bed creaked when you sat/laid on it. On a more positive note, the breakfast choice is superb. My partner had a full English breakfast, it looked delicious. I had a continental breakfast. Excellent! Not worth £80 stay for 1 night.

Excellent friendly hotel, great value for money, great breakfast. Everything as described and you get what you pay for. Easy to check-in. Large car park, CCTV all around, felt safe.

Decent enough area with buses into town centre if needed or a 20 minute walk. Good parking, clean enough but very basic room. Tea and coffee making facilities. Fairly comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast by a lady who seems to have to run the place on her own. Overall stay totally let down by the fact no hot water was available either on the evening or in the morning so no shower and even the cold water ran at a trickle which in my opinion is totally unacceptable. Spoke to the manager/owner and whilst he apologised did not offer a refund of any sort. Would not stay again as my impression is this hotel is run from a distance and will only get worse in the future as it appears a little run down now.

This is an interesting hotel quite close to Skipton. The ground floor at the front - main road is on the 1st floor and at the back it's the basement. Staircases are quite narrow and, until you get used to them, a bit of a rabbit warren. The automatic check in / door security system are based on the last 6 letters of your mobile followed by the *. I was there three nights and only got it completely right on the last morning. My room was in the attic space but comfortable enough if you remembered to duck round the sloping ceiling. The breakfast was the highlight of my stay as Karen, the only human I encountered during my visit (except other guests), always had a lovely welcome and was ready to take your orders. Tea, coffee, milk, juices, cereals and fruit were self-service but a selection of cooked breakfasts are available. Interesting, boutique ish hotel with a large free car park behind.
