Pretty average
The accommodation was much as expected. The room clean and tidy but the windows were not double glazed and so outside noise easily heard. In the bathroom little things like the toilet roll placed too far back and no plug in the hand basin were minor inconveniences.

Great location and staff member at check in and during the afternoon in the bar was very helpful & knowledgeable. We found the room and facilities to be excellent, other than the bed which was a little uncomfortable. Disappointed to return at only 1045pm to be told last orders had been called at the bar and we couldn't have a final drink. Other than that would recommend and would stay again.

Very clean but dated premises. The room was specious & bed comfortable. Staff were very friendly & noise from the bar area below not a problem. Breakfast was a little disappointing but good pre-selection the night before. Parking outside was convenient but council run public car park free between 6pm & 9am. All in all a decent stay for the convenience & friendliness.

Dreadful, Things old and some not working (including some lights and Wi-Fi) but worst of all very loud music from down below till 11pm so couldn’t hear myself think. (All recorded) Awful, worst of places I’ve been and all for £100!!!

Friendly small hotel.
Pleasant stay in a friendly small hotel. Manager was helpful, room was comfortable and breakfast was good. Only downsides were: no TV reception, one of the sockets didn’t work and the toilet macerator was really noisy. I parked outside the hotel at what appeared to be hotel parking, but received a parking ticket. I wish I had been informed that the parking didn’t belong to the hotel and would need to be paid for.

Helmsley & the Royal Oak
The Royal Oak is well positioned in the market place and is run by friendly welcoming staff. The Pub Grub menu is limited but the the food was excellent and the beer was superb. Helmesley has a lot going for ir, we would definately go again!
