Quiet oasis with garden and outdoor seating in the middle of the city. Very helpful and knowledgeable hosts! Bedroom and en-suite bath was immaculate and very comfortable. View of garden and church yard was lovely green while in the town. Excellent breakfast with fresh fruit and well cooked! Very thoughtful hosts with fresh milk in tiny refrigerator in the room for tea/coffee. Parking inside property gate was also appreciated.

An excellent location for travellers on the A1 and easy to find. Very helpful staff. The restaurant was very popular with families, but our menu choices was not as well cooked as I would have liked and the breakfast was poorly cooked, but this is a personal view. The whole place looked tired and Greene King need to take more care of its inns, this is the second time we have stayed in one and the hot water boiler has failed and there has been no hot water.

Darrington is a small well to do village near Pontefract.
Darrington is a small well to do village near Pontefract. Bus service is minimal. Lots of big houses and well tended lawns. There are two pubs and a small general store. Church and church hall are set back from the road (which is busy) We were having a post breakfast stroll guessing the property prices and a local lady invited us to a coffee morning, which was nice.

The hotel was right next to the A1M but had little if any noise from it. It was ideal to break up the journey further north for a funeral & then the return journey. Bed was very comfortable and large, staff were very welcoming and friendly, having a pub attached gave a great choice for evening meals and breakfast.
The only criticism was the occasional uneven floor in the room

I travelled to spend time with family. The staff are great. Location is good just off the A1. We visited Bridlington Beach for the day, which has a lovely beach and funfair and restaurants. It is about 1 hour and 20 mins from Darrington.

The only good point for our reason for being there was the location.
Every other aspect of the Darrington Hotel was unpleasant, in fact downright disgusting! The place is filthy and the constant TV sport, in every nook and cranny, is unbearable.
The rooms are tiny, the shower was minute and we had one chair between us. No hanging space or drawers.
The food was awful, badly cooked, badly presented, cheap and nasty, though not to buy! The breakfasts were appalling! Little choice, poor quality, like warm water to make tea or coffee, there was nothing good about the breakfasts. The staff? Scruffy! One lad in particular, with filthy jeans, long dirty hair and an arrogant swagger, looked more like a tramp than a waiter!
Many years ago we lived in Darrington and that hotel was our local. It was then a decent, well kept place. Now, it is simply disgusting!
The hotel itself is about a 10 minute drive from town and about £8 in a taxi, rooms were nice and fully equipped,i liked the fact they came with an iron and ironing board and hairdryer. The bed was very comfortable.Staff were all great especially the lady on reception who let us check in early.The prices in the bar and restaurant were particularly good value for money. They even had breakfast with santa on for the children which i thought was a lovely touch.
Very convenient location whilst travelling down the motorway. Lovely clean rooms, with very nice en suite and large screen tv. Food is excellent value and high quality. But, the best thing about The Darrington is it’s staff. They were all incredibly friendly and helpful, they really made our stay that little bit more special. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again if we are in the area. Fantastic place.
Great location when travelling as just off motorway.
Fantastic value. Had low expectations before arriving because I just booked the cheapest place as an over night stop but very pleasantly surprised. Staff really friendly. Room large ans clean. On this holiday I had paid more then double in another hotel and room was terrible so was very happy here. Nice to have the pub down stairs for food as well.
Hotel reception is just left of the pub, so you don't have to walk through the pub. Our room was large, with a full ensuit. Shower over bath, lots of very hot water. The staff were all lovely & friendly. The hotel is located just off the A1 but we didn't hear any traffic. Large free carpark.
Decent breakfast, choices of fresh fruit, yogurts, pastries, cereal, toast and the hearty full English.
Location brilliant for closeness to pontefract.Small problem with milk+teabags in room but but Ian on reception was awesome!!!,Sorted it asap!!Really nice staff in the hotel+Restaurant,Well done guys!!!!
Paid for breakfat but then told its wasnt allocated to our room - had to leave as we would be late for work
Rang the hotel later inthe day and the breakfast was refunded - staff were lovely no issue
Staff were great when the hotel’s mistake re booking was realised as we had proof, the hotel cancelled the wrong room and then had to make up a second bed. Provides us with fans but see below.
We found this hotel clean and well presented. Every member of staff we came across were friendly and happy to help. Well done we will definitely stay again.
