Howsham Holidays

Nice Hotel with lots of parking, but if arriving late may have to park on street. Hotel only 4 min walk downhill to the city center, very handy. Building could be doing with some TLC, management do agree, notices saying bare with them its a work in progress. Building has so much character and beautiful stained glass windows. Staff, great, very approachable and helpful. Singer entertainer and Disco at weekend. Breakfast usual cereals, yoghurt, fruit juice, fruit, toast. Also served cooked buffet. All very tasty. Good value, for being so close to town.

We chose not to have breakfast but the choice seemed good and the dining area is in a lovely setting. My only gripes would be that there was no fridge or water in our room and I could not speak to a receptionist, having to leave a message instead the day before we arrived, which was not responded to. Overall cleanliness was good.

Perfectly situated in centre of town. Useful parking at the back, through unmarked door with stairs to reception on the first floor. More stairs from lift to bedroom on second floor. Many thanks to the reception staff who carried my bag.
