Great break at Knaresborough

A wonderful 3 nights at the Royal Oak in Knaresborough, amazing breakfasts, great service, really comfy and cosy room, ideally placed for local events (like the market) and for trips to Ripon & Harrogate. We'd recommend it to everyone.

The room was a good size but only a standard double bed. The mattress was a bit lumpy in places. The bathroom was a good size and although the shower was good the tile grout was quite black in places. The breakfast was excellent. An adequate room for one night

Disappointed

The staff were friendly, although a bit scruffy, but the service was good. The bedroom was fine, and clean towels provided regularly but there was no cleaning done in the room or shower room during our stay. The shower was quite disgusting down to lack of cleaning over a period of time. Wouldn’t stay there again. The photos on the website showed a better picture than the place actually was.

Not worth the money

We booked this place based on all the positive reviews. However, we were very disappointed. We were not informed that there was no longer on site parking and had to pay to park in a lot blocks away. We were led to believe that food was available in the evening and this is not true. Our room was on the ground floor in the Carriage House with tables right outside our window. Both evenings there was "live" music that went on until midnight. The mattress on the bed was so bad, you could count the springs popping out. The shower temperature adjustment knob was stuck on full hot, but this still only gave us a tepid shower. Needless to say, our stay was not as advertised, and not worth the money.
