Best Western Lairgate Hotel

A very clean hotel in a great location, with parking and lovely staff. Coeliacs are catered for. Our room was clean and large room with plenty of wardrobe space. It looked over the rear courtyard, so was fairly quiet. However, it had a strange mix of bed linen and new duvets are needed. Otherwise,was all good. less

Please read down to the "However" ....... My husband and I stayed here , room only, booked last minute on the sunny Royal Wedding weekend. Very central. Car parking free but very tight. Spent a lot of time parking up - shunting in and out. Reception dated but male member of staff pleasant. Showed us to our room on the ground floor through lots of "Unswinging" doors and a few steps. Room 35 !! The one room we'd looked at online and not wanted!! First i'll give you the bad points but please hang on because there were good points... On first impression - oh my goodness - are we in an old people's home? Old decor and old peoples furniture. Hotel and room so dated and the double bed looked so old we could imagine Scrooge sleeping in it!! The room had old wooden furniture. Old pull out wooden table and old arm chair. Threadbare mat. Walk in wardrobe cupboard. Only one bedside table that was so crooked and crippled we were lucky to put one cup on it. The bed was wedged in an alcove so unless you're super slim ( and we aren't!!!) you would have to be a contortionist to get in and out of. ( considering most people here were probably in their 80's I think that's why this room was saved for "younger guests"). The view from the window (which we found impossible to open) was of a dirty unkept small courtyard with enormous scaffolding holding "something" up. The bathroom was quite nice - good in-bath shower with plenty of hot water. Steps up to the bath area. Green towels but very clean and quite big - we had to ask for another as only one bath towel provided. Unfortunately the toilet didn't flush properly, took some clearing , and the hot water tap needed a warning sign - scolding!! HOWEVER...... There was a lovely wide screen tv. Good tea and coffee making facilities. Iron and ironing board. Hair dryer. The place was clean and guess what??? We had the most amazing comfy nights sleep ever!!! The bed was So comfy!! Staff were helpful and pleasant, we had a "Do not disturb" sign on and they just gave us what we required. Very quiet hotel. Lovely little area outside at the back. Very central. .... In fact a pleasant change from the modern" no character," chain hotels . GO FOR IT !! less

It's dated, the widows don't open. Staff are friendly and they had black out curtains which ensured I had a very good nights sleep.. Parking available on site and it's right in the centre of town... Considering location, price and parking it's good value for money less

Very friendly staff who couldn’t have been more helpful. Check in and check out was easy. There’s obviously been a lot of money spend on the communal areas which look clean and fresh. Unfortunately in my room The carpet was starting to get threadbare and the pillows were hard and lumpy. The room decor just looked tired which was a real shame. I hadn’t expected light green towels either...! less

Stayed in the hotel as we where going to Beverley racecourse , we arrived early from a long drive , our room was not ready but the hotel reception staff where lovely and friendly and gave us another room to get changed into and took our bags to the room , we stayed in the 4 poster bed room when was really nice , all the staff from the chambermaid to the manager were really friendly and helpful , location perfect for town Center and we got a space easily in the carpark , it was a mile walk from the racecourse which was 15 walk to perfect , would stay and use this hotel again thank you less
