Elephant & Castle

Breakfast was a joke. A can of fanta, an apple, a Lidl yoghurt and a pre-packaged mini croissant.

Lovely 2 night stay, fab breakfast, friendly and helpful staff, would defo recommend and would stay at again as well

Lovely clean, comfortable and modern room with everything that we needed.

Lovely host, lovely room lovely breakfast great location

Rooms fairly basic but clean and functional. Nice bathroom

Friendly atmosphere, luxurious room and excellent breakfast

The Elephant and Castle in Holmfirth, while aesthetically appealing, falls short in several basic areas. Upon check-in, I was informed that weekday breakfasts were limited to a continental option, though a bacon sandwich was kindly offered and delivered. However, I was required to pay an unexpected £50 deposit for room damages upfront. The room was exceedingly cold, despite the radiator being on full blast. The towel radiator in the bathroom provided minimal relief but was difficult to operate due to its height. Night one was disrupted by rattling sash windows with loose latches, forcing me to sleep in a T-shirt due to the Arctic-like temperature. On the second evening, the staff directed me to leave my key in the door and exit via the fire escape the next morning, raising concerns about the deposit return process. Breakfast was unavailable, contrary to prior information. The room lacked turndown service—coffee, biscuits, and the bed were untouched from the previous day. In the bar, no last orders bell was given, and service abruptly ended at 11 pm without forewarning. The back-of-house areas were disappointing, though the room presentation was commendable. Wi-Fi was limited to the bar area, and poor 4G signal compounded communication issues. Ultimately, I left for The Bridge Hotel for a proper breakfast and decided to return to my preferred hotel for future visits. A week later, I had to call for my £50 refund; it was not issued voluntarily. While the rooms resemble well-pre

Room was okay for the price, some communication issues about breakfast, we booked breakfast for 10am not realising that checkout was also 10. I asked if we could pay for a later checkout so that we could allow our breakfast to digest but was bluntly refused. It felt unnecessary as they only have 4 rooms to clean before 3pm. We will not stay there again.

Spur of the moment great location and friendly in pub

CleN newly renovated bathroom and room. Tight spaces but worth it.

Alison was an excellent host. She made us feel very welcome and even gave us a free upgrade. The room had everything you need and the bed was comfy. Top marks for the breakfast the following morning. Added bonus was the free onsite parking.

Comfortable room in an excellent location. Lovely breakfast. Being able to park there is an added bonus. The only drawback was that the Wi-Fi wasn’t accessible in the bedroom.

The staff was amazing and very helpful yhe property was very clean and it had everything we needed we will definitely stay here again.
