Find the Cheap Cattal Hotels

A lovely venue in a picturesque village. An extremely warm welcome on arrival. Very friendly, relaxed atmosphere in the bar. Room was modern, clean and very comfortable. I arrived very late so missed out on an evening meal but breakfast was great with plenty of options, cooked to order. Would highly recommend. So glad I avoided the big chain hotels.

Beautiful looking hotel on arrival but I left disappointed and uncared for. I am a single female business traveller visiting sites across the country and required a hotel room close to wetherby so chose the bridge. Hotel room nice although bathroom needed a good paint. As a business traveller I have to depart early normally just before 7. I was disappointed to not be able to access breakfast and was told by a member of staff heading towards the kitchens the departing morning nothing is available including reception until 7. I had mentioned it to reception on check in and they assured me the continental elements of the breakfast would be available from 6:30 and that there was NO take away service availability for a business traveller. I did manage to forage a slice of bread lol which had to suffice. The bed was comfy but the shower although powerful never got warm in the morning even after running it for over 10 minutes so had to grit my teeth during my freezing ablutions. I had to play hunt the tea tray and to extract it from its hidden location meant getting down on my hands and knees The hairdryer stopped blowing after 5 seconds….. thank god I had travel one with me as remember, I would not have got help as no one was at reception ! So probably a lovely stay for those on vacation in the york area but for me as a business user, I would be hesitant to stay here again unless I had the opportunity to start work later I would have told reception my issues as posting a review as a first contact point is not my style, however if you remember they were not there!

Great location in the Moto services on a roundabout that leads to York, Wetherby and the A1M. Really convenient for going out. Loads of parking, although would be better if there was a dedicated area for hotel guests as the bit nearest the hotel seems to be where everyone wants to park, particularly vans. Basic budget hotel with tea and coffee facilities in the room, a TV and a shower room. Would have said it was clean until I found a babies dummy under the bed on the last morning of our 3-night stay. Odd numbered rooms face the car park. On the ground floor rooms from 021 to 037 overlook the grass between hotel and car park where people stand to smoke and everyone takes their dog to do its business. Got a bit annoying when people stood almost against our window even when it was open. Closed window pretty good at keeping out the noise day and night. Additional door in the corridor just before room 021 also cut down on the early morning shouting of people leaving their rooms. Room surprisingly quiet. Did have one issue but it was sorted out pretty swiftly by management with no argument, so can't fault them on service. Breakfast is available for £7 but not much variety. Some cereals, yogurt, fruit, cheese and bread/cakes. Greggs next door much cheaper.

The hotel environment is good, the room is big and the bed is comfortable

The market town Knaresborough looked an ideal stopping point en route to London by car, just off the A1 and with stunning views from the castle which was a stronghold of medieval kings, across the River Nidd and viaduct. It's also near Mother Shipton's Cave, named after England's most famous Prophetess who lived some 500 years ago during the reign of King Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I. The cave is her legendary birthplace and near to a geological phenomenon, the Petrifying Well, England's oldest visitor attraction. Sadly, the weather closed in and driving down the rain-soaked A1, allied to an extensive delay because of traffic through Newcastle, meant it was closed when we got there. We had a walk but a chill wind forced us back to the Orchard Club Hotel situated near the centre of town. It's on the main road and easy to spot but finding the car park up a tight alleyway was a pain. We got there in the end. It is Grade II listed and was formerly the Newton House Hotel. Each room is named and styled with a particular fruit as its inspiration. Ours was comfortable if a tad old fashioned for our taste. It had everything you needed and we slept well despite our room overlooking a busy main road rear traffic lights. The breakfast choice was extensive and other guests were using it as a convenient location for touring to places like Fountains Abbey, the largest monastic ruins in the country, York and, of course, Mother Shipton's Cave.

We booked this B&B at very short notice and must say we weren't disappointed. Located in the heart of Knaresborough with car parking very convenient also very local to the many sights, restaurants and bars. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly with a good sense of humour but also very attentive and proficient. The rooms were very well equipped, we're warm and very clean. A very comfortable bed with nice duvets and comfy pillows made for a good nights sleep. Tea and coffee making facilities were available using fresh milk. The complimentary snacks were a nice touch. No road noise. A very warm and clean shower room with good quality towels and complimentary toiletries. For breakfast. A pre order form is requested the previous day with very good choice indeed, breakfast cereals and fresh fruit are available on the morning but we opted for a full English and must say it was one of the best breakfasts I have had in any accommodation, cooked to perfection and locally sourced. Ample supplies of tea, coffee and toast if required. There aren't enough of these little gems being preserved and this is one we will definitely be returning to. A great place run by great people. Can thoroughly recommend.
