When booking on line just over night stay , ROOM 9.
Has no window. Terrible nights sleep.
Plus the man on reception when booking in at 5.30. Was VERY UN HELPFUL, . My husband and I have osteoarthritis in the knees. I said we couldn’t do the stairs because of this. The man said he couldn’t do anything for us.
We have stayed there 3 times and always have a chalet ground floor,
Your man whom needs re training even though been with you for 14 years. I would not give him a reception job ever.
Another basic point eating in the restaurant, requested again Worcestershire sauce for steak dinner 3 rd time no sorry we don’t use that. The young ladies said they never heard off it. Pls train waitress
I had to get all this off my chest as it was manifesting too long.
We stay at the Kings Croft for when we travel up from Suffolk to visit family.
And like comfort and polite manners.
Look forward to hearing from you
Kind regards

A really lovely hotel set in beautiful manicured grounds. Our room was large and appeared to have been really decorated and recarpeted. Without doubt, we will stay there again when we next visits Pontefract. One tiny negative was a cold sausages breakfast.
Nice stay on the outskirts of Pontefract. Lovely location and plenty in the bungalow apartment. Breakfast and host were lovely, helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good.
Had a lovely stay, breakfast first morning was amazing, second morning buffet style was running out constantly. Tv was poor reception and not much choice. Room was lovely & the bed was very comfortable.
Lovely food, comfy beds, good access and parking, spacious bungalow.
Pillows were a bit too high for me, 1 pillow was too low, 2 pillows too high. My own fault as I usually take my own.
Lovely setting and views
