Best Western Studley Castle  

Great staff, great rooms, lovely bathroom, fabulous scenery and lovely local walks.

The restaurant we had a table booked for 4 people and the meals were disasterous...completely unflavoured, unattractive food, not the quality expected from such a place. Either it was the chef's day off or they have a bit of a problem! I did highlight it with them directly.

Nice view, nice castle outside, good reception - that's all, too many money for this hotel level

All eat on brekfast is cold, inside castle view on 3

Lovely old building in pleasant surroundings. Getting past it's best but at £40 a room, it was good value for money.

The Free wifi did not work. I know it's one of those things but it meant I could not do some work as I had planned.

staff were very friendly and helpfull ruum was a pleasue to be in for what little time we were there

Great staff, smashing place to stay

Found nothing wrong at all

Stunning setting

room was damp and dirty [a smell of rotting wood] despite the reception aware of the problem no offer of another room. food was over priced and poor. place was understaffed and cold ,total lack of atmosphere.the sliced fruit at breakfast was dried out and curled up at the edges. With only four people in the resturant,I was asked if I had made a reservation,Then told it would be a five minute wait and could I go and have a drink in the bar first ,The same bar without any staff. Christmas party season and the place was empty...make your own mind up.

Good location, pleasant staff and reasonable price

Room was a little pokey, but for the price was acceptable. There was a lingering smell in the room, like damp which was slightly off-putting by the morning

The approach to the floodlit facade along the avenue of Wellingtonias is almost worth the money! The chain-store stair caps and cheap-skate candelabra- lamp holders (strraight out of Woolworths 1970) in the dining room are an initial culture-shock but somehow add to the wacky appeal - for a fleeting moment you wonder - is it comandeered by the post-revolutionary forces, the Ministry of Utilities, or the yha? Fake mouldings in quite nice small bedroom continue to cast a sub-Hollywood spell - the late Ken Russell on a low budget? Overall, the aura is of a lack of pretension in a memorable. Even unique, setting: I loved it and will definiately stay again. Far better than the best possible taste at five times the price. Oh! And I almost forgot - the food and service was fine. For some reason the Castle is not named on the Ordnance Survey map; there is no tourist sign in Studley; the Best Western standard sign at the drive-end does not do justice to the visual magnificance of the approach (though perhaps offering a clue to the decor).

Bathroom large and clean, bed very comfy, lovely view. Did not eat there so cannot comment on food etc but found this better than another local hotel I had stayed in. Perfect for 1 night away on business

the staff are very good nice building

the rooms need updating and the design is not suitable for a hotel more a dorme which we understand reading the history of the Castle. the Wedding that was on Friday took over the complete place and the full staff available on the night. The mattress on the bed

It is of a higher standard than I expected for the price.

Nothing, it was fine.

Being unable to have dinner in the Restaurant on Friday evening and being unable to have drinks in the bar on Saturday evening!
