Owl, Hambleton by Marston's Inns

We (2 adults, 2 kids) stayed for one night. Pros: the Family Room was very large, more like a suite as the kids had their own small room with two beds off the main room. The ‘double’ bed was huge, and the pillows are the comfiest I’ve ever slept on - my husband said it was the best night’s sleep he’s ever had in a hotel! There’s plenty of parking available, the area feels safe and is very quiet. Only 35mins drive into York (which was the main reason for our stay), but not even half the price of more central hotels. Well worth the drive! Cons: the only things to note are that the floorboards are quite creaky, so I imagine if you’re on the ground floor you might find it noisy. And the bathroom could definitely do with a spruce up (small amount of mould in the grout, peeling paint from the bath panel etc). Overall we had a lovely stay, and will definitely be back!

Great hotel. Would stay again.

It was convenient area for us to go were we wanted and visit

Good value and a lovely big comfy bed.

Stayed here as I was on business close by and it was spot-on. Friendly staff, excellent food in the evening, and a fantastic breakfast to set me up for the day.

Nice and clean room and the pub's food was amazing.

Lovely hotel, great check in, very friendly staff. Bed very comfortable, the room was amazing.

Hassle free

Really lovely hotel clean rooms friendly helpful staff great food

A great place to stay

Todo bien

The food was bad, asked for a medium stake but it was way too overcooked, sauce in lasagne tasted a bit off, asked for a sauce that isn’t spicy and it was spicy (despite the waitress saying its not), we were listening to music at 21:50 or so and we were told to listen to it quieter despite us talking louder than the music itself. Beds were uncomfortable, the shower water was too hot on both sides. Wouldn’t recommend

Overall a reasonable place to stay. However the plumbing is very noisy from other rooms and the walls are very thin Rooms are a little dated, but were clean.

The room was dirty...mattress stained yellow and something had been splashed up the walls but not cleaned off. We had cod and chips for dinner...the cod had been sat under the heatlamp for an extended periid of time and was incredibly dry. The watermelon & feta salad was small, ingredients were not fresh, and 3 pieces of watermelon. It was a main course dish. We did get offered free desserts as compensatiin for the meals but declined.

Good clean, excellent attendance and comfortable. I recommend.

Stayed at the Owl a few times. Pub facilities are good. Rooms are basic, comfy bed, and adequate facilities. Tea and coffee tray in room. However on this visit there was a loose toilet seat and the radiator in the bedroom did not work. These were reported but not rectified during our stay.

Good staff. Comfortable room, great service and excellent

Stoped at The Owl for one night with my family and in overall it was very pleasant experience. We had a family room on the top floor and it was very quiet up there. Our room was spacious enough for four of us, beds very comfortable and level of cleanliness very satisfying. Check in and check out were very straightforward. Staff appeared to be very pleasant. We only had a breakfast at this hotel, which turned to be very nice. In overall this stay was a great value for money and very pleasant experience for me and my family.

Car parking is free and plenty of doace available when we arrived. There's a convenience store right next door which is handy for any little items we might have forgotten to bring. Check in was easy snd the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was large and comfortable, however there were a couple of niggles. The wall next to the single bed in our family room was dirty and I cleaned it before using the bed. Also, there's no reading lamp beside the single bed which is inconvenient, although there is a socket next to the bed, so a lamp coild be placed on the shelf. There was a smell of drains in the bathroom when we arrived and this lingered into the second day of our stay. The plug doesn't fit tightly in the bath, so the water leaks away! However the room was quiet, the beds comfortable and we had everything we needed.

Nice property with large rooms
