Top Skipton Castle Hotel Reviews

The Skipton Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely room overlooking the canal. We walked into the town along the towpath & later enjoyed drinks after dinnerin the bar. Staff very helpful. Very dog friendly- they set up breakfast in the morning for us in the bar area so could stay with our dog."

Craven Heifer

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place, full living room with 2 sofas and a TV, also separate double bedroom with TV and bathroom, excellent price."

Herriots

10/10 Excellent

"Great food, friendly staff, location was ideal, lovely hotel, will definitely return, highly recommend a stay when in Skipton."

The Woolly Sheep Inn

8/10 Good

"We stayed for 3 nights. The Inn is in a great central location, a few steps from the town centre. 5 min walk to the Skipton Castle. 2 min walk to the bus stop where you can get the local bus to take you to various beautiful spots in the Yorkshire Dales, if you are not driving like us. The Inn was very clean. Although our room was very small we had Comfortable bed. The room could use a chair to sit on instead of having to sit on the bed when in the room. The breakfast was good and plentiful. Did miss some freshly baked goods. Overall good. Would stay again in the future."

The Railway

10/10 Excellent

"Extremely easy to locate the hotel using the postcode given. We arrived in Skipton rather early and parked in the long stay car park round the back which is £8.10 for 9 hours but free from 6pm- 9am. There is free parking on the side road next to the hotel if you're lucky enough to secure a space. We had a lovely walk round Skipton centre - it's full of independent shops selling gifts, coffee, cakes and fish to name but a few. Great to see also lots of little pubs and banks/ building societies still going strong. We were able to check in earlier than 3pm and our room ( number 2) was absolutely perfect for our overnight comfort. Our curry cruise that evening was super but it was surpassed by the amazing full english breakfast at The Railway. We look forward to our next visit to Skipton and another stay in this lovely inn. Thankyou ❤️"

"The house was very good, some minor issues, the fridge was not very fresh, had to freshen it up, also some black mould around the bath/ shower so cleaned that as well. Watered the plants but clear no other guests had, also previous guests leaving cigarette ends in the garden and plant pots, not nice"
