Our experience here was superb!! We had so much fun visiting this area and our stay at the Wheatley just made it that much better!! Wish we could have spent more time here!!
Excellent hotel, very polite staff eager to help. Quiet room recently refurbished with extremely comfy bed and hot shower. Fresh milk in the fridge a nice touch! Absolutely delicious breakfast, excellent choice, local produce all cooked beautifully. Highly recommended
Lovely place . Lovely staff . Lovely food. So glad I came here instead of Leeds . Wish I’d booked direct though as hotels.com customer service are abysmal plus I paid £17 more a night !

Good but could be better.
This is the second time I have highlighted a safety issue in the bedrooms and I am more annoyed the longer that goes on.
The rooms are clean and a little too warm at times, but perfectly fine if you don’t need huge amounts of space.
Very quiet too but a little too dark with 2 out of 4 light switches doing nothing.

Nice but better value elsewhere.
For over £132, I was disappointed with my stay here at the Wheatley Arms. It’s not the first stay here but I doubt I will repeat it soon.
For the price, I at least expected a room with a bath but apparently the price for my room didn’t warrant that upgrade.
Breakfast was disappointing, with eggs I believe were powdered, and a hashbrown that was so soggy and oily, it tasted vile.
The room itself is small but comfortable. Very clean in the room and the bed and pillows were very comfortable.
The extractor fan in my bathroom didn’t work at all, making everything a little damp. There was a little bit of dirt around the sink but overall clean.
The biggest complaint is the blind without a curtain, meaning I had little sleep. The one thing you want from a hotel is sleep.
Finally, the safety cord for the blind was not attached at all, making this a massive hanging hazard for young kids and others. This needs to be fixed ASAP.
Ultimately I’ll return to the Black Hat further in Ilkley as this is better value for money.
Another good overnight stay. Excellent value for money. Food good. Room more than adequate. Staff friendly and efficient. What mire can you ask for?

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was noisy, spoke to staff, uninterested, room looked tired, and then no water in the morning, went down to find out why, ground floor all locked up, says on the app breakfast was from 7am yet it doesn’t open to 8 … a awful stay…don’t ever leave feedback, but on this occasion thought i should do…
The staff at the bar were helpful and friendly.
The food was not bad at dinner.
Good location and good parking.
Room was spacious.
Temperature good with the use of a fan in the heat.
There was no WiFi throughout my stay there which is not good when one is reliant on WiFi.
Would return again next year.
The hotel could not find our booking when we arrived, fortunately they did have a room for us.
The room was so hot overnight we had to sleep with the window open where an extractor fan ran all night which was noisy but we also had to keep the Dyson fan on in the room to so we had a very restless night.
Absolutely lovely overnight stay-superb room (Number 2) including a balcony and outside sofa. Great parking and easy to find with perfect location for the Cow & Calf Rocks.
Friendly staff and excellent service. Room very clean and comfortable. All social distancing well observed. Breakfast freshly cooked to order with local produce.
The hotel had lost my booking, although they did find me another room. Unfortunately the room I thought I had booked was not as per the description. Showed pictures of a four poster bed and an outside patio area, neither of which it had. When challenged about the misleading pictures , they advised they did have other rooms which fell under the same category which have the aforementioned features. I advised that this was very misleading and to me was false advertising. They made me prove it by loading up both bookings.Com and hotels.com. I asked how they would like to rectify my disappointment and was made to feel as though they had done more than enough as the room rate I’d payed was very good and I should be greatful enough. Didn’t stay for a drink and didn’t go for breakfast as I really didn’t feel welcome.
