Room was comfortable and clean. A little on the small side and 2 windows . Good air conditioning which was needed on a very hot day. Booked a retreat room which was disappointing because it overlooked nothing

Nice but not 100%

The hotel is nice, love the family rooms with the bunk beds. However the reception is in a different building not ideal when the key stops working etc. The TV in the room wouldn’t work, bit frustrating when you’re travelling with kids. Also the upgraded rooms only just have a view of the park and the windows are small and do not open at all so you can’t hear anything! Could do with a hotel guests lounge or patio area with a park view. Guest services left us a nice touch as it was mine and my sons birthday, which was very thoughtful and much appreciated.

Superb if visiting Yorkshire Wildlife Park

Loved our stay at this great hotel. OK maybe only of interest if you are visiting the Wildlife Park, but for that it's hard to beat. Checked the reviews and the only thing that kept coming up was the loudness of the extractor fan - we thought 'really'! But they are very loud! Staff were great, air-con silent and effective. Food a little limited, but clearly aimed at families and pretty much as we expected

Nice hotel but bring ear plugs

The hotel is really nice, it has everything you need! Only problem is that it is full of kids so be prepared to be woken up with banging, screaming and running around! The pain in the bathroom could also do with a touch up. You also can’t walk round in the nude as the lower window isn’t in the best position
