My husband booked this as a surprise to celebrate my 50th Birthday - and what a surprise! I do not particularly like staying in hotels when holidaying in the UK and find a lot of up market places very "stuffy" and full of "stuffy people", including the staff! However, this place is fabulous! The staff were very attentive, without being... More

Having had a wonderful stay for our 45th anniversary, our latest stay on our 49th anniversary was even more enjoyable. Greeted with Champagne, upgraded to a junior suite and pampered in the spa, we could not have celebrated in a more welcoming environment. The food was exceptional and the staff extremely attentive. We cannot wait to return next year for... More

There is a great deal to like about this hotel: the main building, the garden and grounds are all magnificent (do visit the walled garden). The staff are all helpful and considerate and our room was pleasantly decorated and furnished. Everything worked and the heating was easy to control. But for us the drawback was the dinner. I see that... More

We are a young couple and stayed here for 1 night - it was heaven! We are members of the National Trust and so were expecting the period decor and were not disappointed. Our room (17 in the Courtyard) was gorgeous with lots of period touches. From the moment we checked in we felt welcome - from the G &... More

We stayed two nights in April to celebrate my 70th. We were delighted with the hotel, its position, the service and dinner. We did not use the spa, it looked impressive but is not part of the main building. We were upgraded to Room 9 that overlooks the garden Our only reservation is that the main sitting room was booked... More

Without hesitation I would recommend the spa experience at Middlethorpe Hall if you enjoy an intimate, personal and relaxing day. The spa is separate from the hotel but just over the road on the grounds. It has a small, inviting reception area with a seating area and a few tables for lunches. Lunches are served at the table or easy... More

We had a special night last week to celebrate my wife's birthday. The staff were superb, the food delicious and the ambiance heavenly. My wife was very touched by all the attention, the charm of Gwenael (sorry if I have his name incorrectly spelt), and the quality of everything. A very big thank you to you all from both of... More

We celebrated my daughters 21st birthday at Middlethorpe Hall on Saturday evening. The food was excellent, the staff very attentive and the surroundings beautiful. Booking this private event was made very easy by the professional staff and nothing was too much trouble. More

Have just returned from a 2 night stay at Middlethorpe, firstly, the management and staff could not do enough to make our stay memorable, yes the hotel was quiet and I've stayed at noisy hotels in York, but this hotel has a lots of history, so too sit and contemplate and relax. It was nice to sit in one of... More

We loved our stay here. The service is OUTSTANDING and the staff are all very friendly It's a "period" place and so if you want modern rooms with extra comfort then this is not the place for you. Think Elizabeathen and you will be there. We were told that we had an upgraded room and so I'm not sure what... More
