Wainstones Hotel - North Yorkshire (county)

Room clean but grossly overpriced room and food, uncomfortable mattress, decor which has never been in fashion, a strange smell in the room, no internet in room, no/very little gprs phone signal on vodaphone, t-mobile and orange can't confirm other networks, broken 13A socket where kettle plugged in. The shower sounded like it had a bumble bee stuck […] in the head. A complete disaster for the business traveler and one to avoid. Read more

I thought the hotel was poor value for money, the bed was lumpy, pillow hard, curtains ineffective, the room stank of cooking fumes and the powershower was so noisy you needed ear plugs. The food was poor, the smoked haddock was dry and overcooked the risotto was like rice pudding and the poached egg was solid...clearly been left lying under a heaterlamp. […] The mussel starter was excellent to be fair. I told the waitress how poor the food was and she thought I was joking!!! Read more

Wainstones Hotel, is situated in the quiet picturesque billage of Great Broughton with excellent links to the North York Moors, coast line and the A1. The rooms are sizeable and clean with all the usual amenities. Breakfast is subsatantial and ideal for those exploring the moors and mountains with long walks. The bar/restaurant is nicely presented with […] excellent food. Drink selection appears a little limited, but sufficient for our needs. The stay was made pleasant from arrival, with helpful and courteous staff, always attentive but never over bearing with easy checking in and out. It was our first visit to the north york moors and we will certainly be back and staying at Wainstones again. Read more

Although the locality was very tranquil on the edge of the Yorkshire Moors the romms were very dated and basic for the price. The bar/restaurant was used by the localsand the food was okay quality and price. This appears to be used by older clientel and would be a good base for exploring the moors, not a business hotel.

For those needing to use a 3g connection during their stay in this area will find it difficult if not impossible to get a decent signal (I am on O2 and could not get a signal, but other networks may be better). This did mean that I had to use the hotel internet connection which costs £7.50 for one night or £15 for two nights or more. Having said that, […] I still recommend this hotel and would come here again. Comfortable, quiet and excellent food (both dinner in the pub and the breakfast). Quality and service of both was perfect - the food was piping hot and the breakfast was cooked to order, making a change from the standard hotel breakfast buffets. I don't think that the hotel provides room services (apologies to all if I am incorrect with that) but the bar is a very cosy and comfortable place to eat. The staff managed to get the balance of friendliness and efficiency exactly right. Read more
