    • Quadruple Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    We couldn't get parked in the car park as there are limited spaces but this was due to our late arrival. Again the staff kindly supplied us with other places to park at and we were able to unload the car in the car park before moving the car so it wasn't a problem at all.

    The staff were really helpful and even made sure we had a hot takeaway breakfast on the first morning when we had to leave early for a group walk The food in general was superb (both breakfast and an evening meal that we paid for separately). The room was spacious and comfortable. We'll definitely book room 7 the next time we stay there as a family!

    Parking on site is very limited. However, a disc scheme operates in the town and there is plenty of free parking within a few minutes.

    Location excellent, right in the centre of Richmond. The hotel is great value for money. Rooms are small but comfortable, clean and well presented. Staff are welcoming and helpful. Breakfast is good with plenty of choice.

    Our quad room was a little tired. However it was well equipped and comfortable.

    It’s discretion as a quaint bar on Finkle Street yet it’s a thriving hotel at the other end.

    Nothing really other than a bit of dust in my room, on the headboard and windowsill.

    The location is great for walking from, especially with a dog, who was very spoilt at breakfast with 2 sausages to herself. I didn't have to share my breakfast for a change.

    Very doggy friendly so if you aren't keen on dogs don't go to Richmond. Dogs get a faster service than humans. Had a Sunday lunch where the carrots and parsnips were rock hard. Quite expensive too for a lunch.

    Great location with parking behind.
