Gargrave Vacation Rentals

"I have stayed at the Midland frequently since I started working in Keighley in early February and until this week considered it an excellent, outstanding hotel with highly professional staff. I was so impressed that I took my wife there one weekend to show it off. I have travelled and worked globally for 25 years staying at some world class establishments in the US, China and everywhere in between, The Midland in Bradford can certainly 'hold its own'. Unfortunately this week changed my perception completely. The new reception team were struggling (unlike previous weeks where they were EXCELLENT). My room was supposed to be a no smoking room BUT it absolutely 'stank' of fresh cigarette smoke. The situation wasn't helped by the power cut on Monday but I can overlook that...it happens. A really important concern that needs addressing urgently however is the presence of homless people sleeping in the car park behind the hotel, it is very un-nerving and eventhough I am a very fit, experienced, martial arts practioner....I would not be comfortable with my wife and children staying in the hotel and going into the car park at night. Unfortunately in our broken society some people find themselves in this position and maybe there is a solution available to help everyone..rather than have homeless people in the car park....Can the hotel do something to address this...maybe offer them a room?"

"The room was very nice and very clean. The bathroom particularly was very modern and clean. The man looking after the breakfast room was lovely. "

"Unremarkable hotel. Bit shabby. All in all disappointing, no different to a travelodge. "

"Parking is good we didn’t have a drink in the bar. We have stayed here many times over the years but it has gone downhill. Poor maintenance in the bathroom… no hot water for a shower or a wash! Went to breakfast and was told we had to be finished within half an hour… people on the next table… the waitress actually asked them to leave!! My husband complained at reception but they just said ok I’ll let them no… with no apology. Also check in not very welcoming! Also they have spoilt the countryside views by putting an 8ft fence up ! We will be looking elsewhere to stay next time! "

"Stayed in one of the cabins, smelt very musty and seemed rundown. No shampoo in either of the despensers and I only found out whilst in the shower. Only a couple of channels worked on the t.v. For a £100 I would expect more!! I've stayed here quite a few times but this will be the last"

"Staff , cleanliness,location and the room everything was amazing. little river right outside of our door. The breakfast and dinner everything was amazing. Definitely recommend people to stay"

"We had 3 nights here and really enjoyed ourselves We made the most of the lovely pool. Had 4 swims in the 4days… the leisure staff were always so helpful and friendly. Very impressed with that and their happy attitudes. We enjoyed the 5*breakfast and ate in the restaurant twice in the evenings. The food was excellent and lots of choice. The staff were super helpful and efficient. Our room was serviced by excellent staff and one particular member really stood out to make our stay comfortable (Simran) … she was consistently super happy and helpful each day. Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed all the places of much interest close by. Don’t miss Skipton Castle, Grassington, Haworth amongst just a few places. We didn’t get to experience the new restaurant but hope to visit again in the future. "

"We didn’t use pool, hot tub or spa facilities so unable to comment on these areas, but our room was clean and comfortable, the staff were helpful and friendly and the breakfast very good. "

"This was my first stay at the Abbey Lodge Hotel and I would definitely return and recommend it to others. The hotel was clean and cosy, and both the day and night staff were very accommodating, friendly, and helpful throughout my stay."
