The Owl at Hambleton, Selby

Quick and efficient check in. Friendly staff. Room was in the annexe building across the car park from the pub. Room was fine. Just enough room to walk around the bed. Bathroom had a bath, which was a bonus. Optional breakfast was good with tasty food and plenty of options. Location was about 20 miles from York, but on our route, so meant we avoided any city traffic on the Friday evening. The room was very quiet despite being on a main road. Easy access to York on the Saturday in about half an hour, so would recommend as a cheaper option to city centre hotels.

Good for the price. Fine for one night.

Abit dated in the room but clean and the shower was good but didn't drain. The family room had a spare bed in the corber that has no plug sockets or light switches by the bed. A lamp/bedside table would be nice. Breakfast was good but service a little slow.

Dirty bathroom, spiders and impolite staff

The room was ok apart from the cobwebs. The bathroom was terrible and used it as little as possible. The bath was dirty with mould, the toilet seat was loose and we had to kill 7 spiders before my daughter would even enter as she’s terrified of them. The staff were impolite at times and all need to learn how to smile! The food was mediocre and not all options available. We had another stay booked for the following week which we promptly cancelled. It was in a good location for my daughters cricket match but will not be returning

An excellent stay!

Amazing staff. Excellent breakfast (thank you for providing that for us, we appreciated it!). Loved the room and the comfort. Despite the heat (30C, which isn't common in Yorkshire), we both loved the stay and the welcoming staff. Will definitely return if we're passing through again!

Convenient hotel for a local stay. Easy to find & large car park. Check-in simple (assumed pre-checked in online). Staff welcoming & friendly. Room was relatively modern & clean and had a decent shower. The room was in the original building though & had several flights of stairs to access - not ideal if you've mobility issues; fine for us though. Breakfast offer was OK & the quality fine for the price, service/food could be quicker. Bar good with reasonable selection of drinks at standard pricing.
