Fabulous experience

Middlethorpe Hall and Spa is a fabulous hotel, one of three owned by the National Trust in the UK. It is set in beautiful grounds and garden. Staff are very welcoming and friendly, the room was spacious and well furnished and the bed was large and comfortable. We had breakfast included in our stay and they catered for most people. Getting into York without using the car was a bonus as the 11 bus has a stop right outside the main driveway entrance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A piece of history

I chose Middlethorpe because of its history. It's a lovely old stately home which has been maintained to a high standard. The staff are very welcoming and the beds very comfortable. It's also a very pleasant walk into the centre of York!

Staff had gone over and beyond to make my stay as comfortable as possible. All were attentive and friendly and it looked like they also enjoyed working there, which makes a difference. They were well mannered polite and graceful. I will certainly come back with family.

Samantha, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a beautiful national trust owned country house hotel, with lovely comfortable rooms, gorgeous gardens, a fantastic restaurant, and wonderful staff, providing friendly & attentive service. It’s also really handy for the York city centre by taxi (around £10 each way with the Drive app) and, if you’re going for the races, the racecourse is actually walkable from the hotel. It has to be acknowledged that Middlethorpe Hall is a little on the expensive side, but it is worth every penny. By the way, a great restaurant tip for the city centre is Rustique - a brilliant French bistro. If you loved the sadly gone Sharrow Bay, in its heyday, as I did, then Middlethorpe Hall lives up to that. We had plans in York for our first night, but on our second night we ate in the hotel’s restaurant, and the food is simply amazing. I don’t think they have a Michelin star - not that I checked - but they certainly deserve one. Middlethorpe Hall has to be the quintessential country house hotel experience in Britain today, and we will definitely be returning. Thank you to all the staff, for making our stay so delightful.

Nice

Lovely hotel with lots of parking. I had a great spa treatment. The staff were helpful and approachable. The room was a good size with plenty of towels and toiletries. The room it was a little too warm for me during the night though. The only downside was a few noisy people at breakfast who need to learn to moderate their voices and the smallest serving of scrambled eggs with salmon I have ever had in a hotel or restaurant!
Pauline, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were a kate check-in and only stayed one night so didn't get the chance to sample the gardens, restaurant or spa. Staff were very friendly and helpful, rooms warm with huge feather pillows. We'll be back to have a proper stay!
