The Old Lodge

great!

Just had a 3 night stay at The Old Lodge with my 7 year old son. Everything was as good as it could be, amazing room overlooking the grounds, really comfy beds, nice bathroom, everything nice and clean, staff were brilliant really friendly and professional.. we didn't eat in the evening here we ate out every night but the breakfast was lovely plenty of choice for my son... Couldn't ask for more really and Malton is a lovely little place lots of shops and pubs ... Overall I'd give The Old Lodge 10/10 !!

the property was great and looked amazing we couldnt fault it. The only problem was they played crap music on the wedding night but hey ho it all in all great.the staff were really helpful and nice interaction as well.

From the moment we arrived at reception everything was perfect wonderful staff and an amazing atmosphere, breakfast fantastic I’ve never seen such varied menu for breakfast,and evening meals wonderful thankyou to all at the Old Lodge we will be back.

Lovely room, lovely bedding/beds, good quality towels. Tea/coffee making facilities. Room very quiet. Staff very helpful/friendly. Breakfast very good, plenty of choice.

Was upgraded to a bigger room and was very impressed. Great stay

Fantastic hotel in Malton, the food capital of Yorkshire. We loved our room, which was kindly upgraded. The room was huge and comfortable with great views of the gardens. Bathroom was also spacious with a roll top bath and separate shower, a great place to unwind and relax. We also had breakfast at the property which was good, although slightly on the pricey end. The location is excellent, and you can walk into the centre in 5 minutes. Overall, highly recommended and we will be back!

Great stay & location for malton. Would stay again

Lovely place to stay in the heart of malton nice walking distance to shops restaurants and bars, car parking was great and staff very friendly

Like a sinister Fawlty Towers. If you’re an insomniac comedy writer, come and get some material.

Lovely place, really friendly and efficient staff.Nothing too much trouble and so helpful. Spotless! Great bar lounge and nice breakfast room. Had lovely room with four poster bed, after being upgraded . Slept like a log! Would def recommend. Only negatives would be tired looking carpets and expensive breakfast. The veggie one only had 2 sausages, though meat option had 3 and black pudding. However , during our party of 6 having breakfast, they ran out of tomatoes, black pudding and mushrooms, so that could be better. Wouldn’t stop me going back though- we loved it! Easy walk into town.

Didn’t use anything at the hotel other than the bed which was clean and comfortable, check in was smooth with a nice free upgrade

The staff were lovely the bed was like sleeping on a clound the building stunning and the breakfast fab

lovely room clean bed lovely and comfy ,room was nice and warm shower red hot ,staff were all do nice

Arrived and told we were given a free upgrade which we were delighted with! However we were given a room with 2 single beds, which we hadn’t booked so were given a room with a double. I understand this is a very old building, and we actually love that, however the cleanliness and decor were awful. The bathroom was just disgusting, mould everywhere, dusty dirty floor and splashes up the wall of god knows what!! Curtains were hanging off the rail and were filthy. The only saving grace was the bed was comfy and we slept well! The headboard was so scruffy and not pleasant. There’s simply no excuse for this! You can’t blame the fact it’s an old building on these issues. Some serious cleaning and updating is very much needed. It’s a shame because we felt this place could have been so much better with a little care. We stayed in room 16.

Fantastic period hotel, beautiful room, excellently presented, lovely 4 poster bed and matching decor. Very warm and superb, hot double shower!! We’ll certainly come again!

Beautiful building in a nice market town, with good links to Whitby, Scarborough, Bridlington & York. Reception, bar, restaurant all nice and decorated well. Lovely staff who are both welcoming and friendly. The town itself has good amenities. Plenty of bars and pins which do nice food. The negatives I can only speak from my own experience in the room I was staying in. It is in definite need of redecorating. It is obvious the style they are going for due to the building itself (clearly a listed building), but I'd say an upgrade in decor is necessary for the room I stayed in. The bed in my room (wooden four poster) was the creekiest bed I've ever slept in, resulting in 2 restless nights. Overall solid, with some areas for improvement.

A bit cold

I wanted to like it - but for me it was just okay. We were only looking for a bed to stay in overnight during a weekend visit to York, and so expectations were not high anyway. We were warned ahead of time by the management that they had an event that evening -so was not surprised to find no one able to help us check in. It took 3 attempts at finding someone able to do so - and about 30 minutes of waiting. Not a great experience for us when we had been driving all day and were tired.They were incredibly shortstaffed for having an event -and had appeared to have no one available at the front desk for other guests. Maybe next time hire some college kids to come help out while the party is going on. At least an extra hand or two. Also had no parking available either -as the party guests all had taken every space. We parked "illegally" for a few hours at our own risk until some of the guests had left. Otherwise, the place was a very basic room with a separate toilet/shower room, bed was very small for a double, and we had a hard night's sleep due to being cramped. Next day, breakfast was wonderful (included in the price of the room) and definitely made up for the inconvenient last evening. Excellent food and service in the morning! I did appreciate that. I recommend making sure there is no party going on if staying there - Unless you're part of the party of course! I did appreciate the headsup from management - but I didn't realize it was going to be an issue til we came.

I wasn’t too bothered where I stayed when I booked this I just needed to be near Castle Howard, but when we arrived I definitely got a wow factor from the place it looked like we were staying in a castle ourselves! The staff were really friendly too and the grounds the hotel was in were fantastic too. I’m looking forward to revisiting just for this place alone absolutely loved it!
