A nice, homely stay
This is a well-placed B&B for the centre of Huddersfield. Everyone is extremely nice and the facilities are good if not bang up-to-date. the breakfast is excellent, parking very convenient and it's a nice touch to be able to bring 'takeaway' food into the hotel's conservatory to eat. We will certainly come back

Staff were very friendly and the property is dog friendly. You can eat breakfast in the conservatory and have your dogs there. No reservation was needed for the car park..plenty of space snd very secure. Only negative is that our room was boiling even with the fan that the hotel had provided. We opened all the windows but unfortunately that meant we could hear all the street noise and the church bells chiming every 15 min.

Hello, It was a pleasure to read your kind words regarding your recent stay. I am sorry that you found the bells a nuisance. However, it is our local Parish Church situated in the town centre and we have very few complaints. I do hope it didn't spoil your stay. Kind regards, Joe

Good but not great.
It was fine. Two issues really were the local area which appears to be largely shut down around the hotel (but very close to the university which was great) and the kind of basic stinginess - tiny ragged towels (but when you ask, lovely large bath towels are delivered), a breakfast cook who does not know how to poach an egg (we taught him) and so on. It is nice, the rooms are fine, beds are double, not queen, as advertised. My tip is that if something is wrong, they will put it right at once.

Great place
I stayed here with my daughter for one night, prior to attending an open day at the university. We couldn't fault the place, the staff were helpful and very pleasant, our room was large and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay and the breakfast was great. And the location couldn't be better; 2 minutes walk to the shops and bars and just along the road from the university. I would definitely stay here again and have no hesitation in recommending it

One of the best budget hotels We've ever stayed in
I have never recommended a hotel higher than this one. It's not high end luxurious.....if that's what you want this hotel is not for you....BUT if you want friendliness, helpfulness, secure parking, loads of extras in the room...fridge, microwave, plates, loads of teas, coffee, chocolate etc......this is the one for you. Really clean, nice bathroom and they encourage you to order takeaways, even allowing you to eat in the lovely conservatory or dining room. Then we come to breakfast.........locally sourced meats, cooked to order, home made preserves and all the types of milk you could wish for. In short wonderful. Both the night and the day manager were so friendly and remembered our names at breakfast. It has some lovely history (recorded in the conservatory) with Harold Wilson featuring.
