Find the Cheap Ingleby Barwick Hotels

We stayed for one night and to be fair that was enough. On arrival we were able to leave our car in the car park as too early to check in. There was no charge for the car park. There was a bus stop directly across the road a very regular number 7 bus took you into their lovely town with plenty of lovely shops, restaurants, bars and family run coffee shops. Check in was good and we found our room quickly. We were on the ground floor. Our room over looked the back garden which was very run down and in urgent need of a re vamp. Old garden furniture, wood work dropping to pieces and dead plants and weeds. Someone obviously had smoked in the room we stayed in as there were cigarette ends outside on the floor! Room was old but clean with kettle tea/coffee/biscuits. The hairdryer was old and made a terrible noise so I used the one I took. Basic complimentary toiletries in the bathroom and the shower was over the bath. We decided to have an hour in the pool area which was nice and relaxing. We used the steam and sauna areas. Small but hot as it should be. Descent changing rooms with showers and chairs around the pool side. The hydrotherapy pool was not working which was a shame. The pool receptionist was very friendly. During our stay there was a group of rugby players which were loud and in appropriate deciding to roll all over the floor in reception and drop their shorts for all to see. A very unpleasant experience. There is a small bar which serves the usual and to be fair around the same price of town. Now to breakfast. It was poor. On arrival we were told we could sit where we wanted. We sat on a table for 2. There was no cutlery and the table required cleaning before we could sit down. The only branded cereal was weetabix. There were bran flakes corflakes and coco pops No yogurts, pastries or fresh fruit and the toast was the cheapest looking. There was warm orange and apple juice. We ordered a full English which was poor. The bacon was fatty sausage well over cooked and the black pudding was a solid block. There was a small half a tomato and mushroom which were very greasy . The hash brown and beans were good and hot. There was tea and coffee which were served in pots which was good. The poor waiting staff really didn’t look happy to be at work. Checkout was quick and easy. Overall hotel in need of a complete re vamp, food was only average at best. However in a great location for exploring Yarm. Will definitely return to yarm but maybe not this hotel.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Only gave it a grade of one as wouldn't let me leave zero I unfortunately booked my parents into this , and I use the term very loosely, hotel at the beginning of December 2023. And only did so as they let dogs stay there with them . I deeply regret booking them in . The lighting was so poor that they couldn't read by it I suspect this was so you couldn't see how dirty it was when you walked in and complain about the room which the lady that showed them to the room and she disappeared extraordinarily quickly, I imagine for the same reason. There was dust everywhere, seen in the light of day. There was used pizza boxes in the bedside drawers along with other rubbish , I suspect this was because there was no bins in the room . The toilet was filthy,old and noisy , the shower had black mold on the tray and up the woodwork. Very small TV with wires everywhere. The bed head board was broken. They slept in their clothes as the mattress was covered in blood and urine stains , it did have a sheet on mattress. Also mattress was completely worn out and compressed to approx 2inches thick when sat on. They didn't get to sleep till approx 4am because of the noise coming from the room nextdoor that seemed to have a revolving door because of the amount of times people were in and out. Also when they paid it was under a different name The Sportsman Hotel. Good job they done do breakfast as they wouldn't have eaten anything that was made there if the state of the room was anything to go by . They just had to post the keys through the letterbox as there was no one to give them to in the morning .

Set in one of the best areas of Stockton on Tees, this place is a disappointment. We went as a party for Sunday Lunch, OMG, the place is covered with televisions, there was even 2 in the Dining Room. The staff were exceptional, the food arrived just to say warm. The Sunday Tapas lunch was crazy, far too big tapas vegetable dishes of Cauliflower Cheese, and a Cabbage one, the portions would have been better shared between two people, what an absolute waste, the yorkshire pudding with the meat in was tiny. Very disappointing TV's everywhere, there is a lovely little room on the right as you go in, that would be ideal for non TV enthusiasts to dine in peace, but that had a TV in too. We were served by Carla who was really attentive, well doner.

It suited our needs. The place itself is ok, Mary the lady in charge was great. The place itself was really tatty and needed some money spent on it. Doors not fitted properly, no carpet on the stairs. Paint coming off the ceiling. Wires everywhere in the room.
