Overall Ratings & Reviews Loftsome Bridge Hotel

Great one night business stay. Nice comfy bed, good restaurant menu Nice friendly staff! Great breakfast cooked fresh out in the sticks so no night life. If that’s what you want

Very friendly staff, room and general area was very clean. Excellent breakfast. Sue was really great.

It was predicted to be a hot day on our booked date , so we asked for electric fan in our room in advance , but none when we arrived and was only given a tiny electric fan/ heater when requested which didn’t do much with the heat in the room . So we didn’t sleep very well . Breakfast , however was lovely . The staff were friendly.

Food lovely. Presentation good, staff attentive Stayed in cute cottage overnight. Parking close to accommodation

Late check in was no problem. Thank you very much. Hotel was lovely, quiet, clean comfortable with an excellent FYorkshire breakfast.

Beautiful setting, will definitely stay again. We have stayed in a few hotel/ guest houses nearby but this will ve our number one choice in future. One or two minor gripes: shower list all water halfway through which was awkward but no real explanation given other than everyone myst be using the shower at the same time. Continebral breakfast was very disappointing. Boxed cereal and no 'freshly baked bread abd pastries '. Unfortunately this wasn't mentiobed when we ordered. The cooked breakfast was very good and there was a plentiful supply of tea and coffee.

Kind and professional staff

Excellent stay

Well kept property. Condition as described. Friendly staff. Good breakfast.

Staying here was a pleasant surprise. I find it hard to believe this place has not been completely refurbished since 2021. The paint work looks new. As do the carpets. Our bedroom was perfectly peaceful. We stayed in room 4 which has a four poster bed. The ensuite was large and spacious and elegantly decorated. The staff were super friendly including our waitress at our evening meal and at our breakfast. The meals we received were very good we would recommend eating at the hotel. I cannot think of any reason to book anywhere else than Loftsome Bridge and that's what we will be doing next time we wre in the area.

Really friendly service, great breakfasts and comfortable rooms. We will definitely be coming again.

Stayed for my husbands 30th. They made a cake our of towels for him and we got a box of chocolates in our room. Great for going into York and other places around it. Nice and quiet, really comfy beds.

Accommodation: room very dated (carpets, furniture) in need of tlc, but clean, quiet and convenient. Shower curtains over bath not contemporary. Bed comfortable, nice linen. Food: pricey for what was served, of varying quality. Bread to accompany cold starter were cheap, buttered, untoasted, supermarket slices, which is not what you'd expect with a £10 starter. Breakfast selection for continental sparse (items like fresh pastries entirely awol, despite on menu); selection of cooked breakfast ok, but supplements charged for specialty coffees and certain items like scrambled egg with salmon, which is incongruous considering a walk-in price of £14 per head (otherwise, breakfast is included in room rate). The free filter coffee offered at breakfast was strong, hot and freshly brewed; what we ate was tasty and of good quality. Service at dinner knowledgeable, professional, friendly (clearly trained waiter). Breakfast (different waiter) sadly not: our request to substitute items on cooked full English with more of another (e.g. swap beans for additional hash brown) resulted in items just being taken off, which was disappointing. Value for money: room rate is just about ok, but restaurant needs tighter quality control in kitchen; breakfast offer and service require overhaul. So all in all very much a mixed experience. With some updating of rooms (flooring, furniture, bathroom) and better food this could be a little gem of a countryside hotel in a pretty setting.

Great stay overall. The staff were very professional and friendly. Someone was on reception when I arrived in the evening at c.8.30pm, contrary to what was said in the the note I received from Hotels.com prior (i.e. that reception closes at 7.30pm). There is plenty of free on-site parking, which was convenient. The building is beautiful, nicely maintained and the setting is quite special, in the countryside and beside the Derwent River. If I had a criticism of sorts, it would be that the interior of my room (one of the cottages) felt a bit dated, i.e. the curtains, furniture, carpet, paint on the walls / woodwork. Breakfast was tasty, nicely cooked and presented. The dining room comfortable and well presented. In summary, I would certainly stay here again and recommend, but do suggest that that the interior should be updated where needed.

Always a lovely stay at the Loftsome Bridge. The staff are excellent and very friendly. We enjoy the food in the evenings and breakfast.

Excellent!!!

A wonderful quiet place you are reliant on your own vehicle. Food is very good (evening and breakfast) but unavailable at lunch time. Can highly recommend the cottages(8 of them), they are spacious with a sofa and large bathroom, their also have their own parking space.

We loved the feel to the whole place and the staff were very pleasant. The food was good and particularly the breakfast and breakfast service was excellent. The windows in the bathroom weren’t lockable.

Wonderful accomodation, staying in one of the cottages. We dined in the rataurant and the staff were very friendly and engaged in good conversation. The food presentation, taste and quality were fabulous and the settting and decoration was delightful. 10/10

The staff and food are excellent: you are very looked after from the moment you check in. Lindsay is always delightful to meet and she really looks after you at breakfast and/or reception, is very easy to chat to and a wonderful part of staying at Loftsome Bridge. We met Tracey on this visit and she was also very friendly and could not have been more helpful showing us some of the room options available for our next visit.
