Best Normanton Hotels

Stayed here for the weekend on the top floor. Receptionist very helpful and pleasant. Room recently renovated and brilliant apart from having no bulbs fitted in the lamps so it was a very BRIGHT room as only the ceiling lights working. ( The receptionist said it was because they had to re-order the right size bulbs?). Loved the new decor. Had a bit of a job managing to find channels on the tv but it was a nice big wall mounted one. Air con was good and heated the room nicely. Liked the fact that the windows opened. Bathroom small but very clean and adequate. Shower not that powerful. Corridors a bit too dark… could do with a lighter paint colour. But the bed… both the mattress and pillows…WOW… so comfy it was hard to get out of!! Cleaning staff helpful. Didn’t use the restaurant for evening meal or breakfast. Friday night it was totally empty and Saturday night it was heaving with a private party. We used the nearby restaurants to eat. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

Stayed for two nights whilst visiting the Leeds area. The hotel is showing it’s age a little but our room was cosy and clean and overlooking the rear of the hotel so nice and quiet. Dining options are somewhat less than central Leeds but there is a Toby Carvery on site and a lovely pub - The New Mason Arms - selling a range of bar meals at reasonable prices just five minutes walk away. Unlike central Leeds, parking is free and there are frequent buses into the City Centre and taking just 20 minutes. The inclusive breakfast was both varied and plentiful. A great alternative to central Leeds for leisure travellers.

Have stayed here 4 times in the last couple of years. Price paid is good value for setting, location, spa facilities but the rooms are definitely looking tired. Was upgraded once and there was a huge difference in the general cleanliness and decor of the room. General house and communal areas are stunning and grand but rooms under any ‘deals’ are quite basic and are very far from the reception and facilities so not so good if mobility could be an issue. Overall it ticks a lot of boxes for a familiar and convenient one night stay.

The pub and the room themselves are lovely.  We were served by a man behind the bar who greeted us with ‘what’s the name?’ He then couldn’t find the booking as he didn’t have the correct apps from which we booked through…continued to say we wasn’t booked even though proof of booking was given.  His approach changed as soon as he realised he was in the wrong, showed us to the room where we found it wasn’t what I had payed for. I booked a king size bed with two singles, was given a room with just two singles. The bathroom had hairs everywhere and hardly any toilet roll. Obviously hadn’t been cleaned and replenished. When we returned back to the room later on in the evening the room was extremely warm, tried to adjust the heating where we discovered it was only able to be changed by the bar downstairs. The bar closed at 10pm to which afterwards there was no staff on the premises. Either be too hot or open the window and have the loud noises from a main road. Couldn’t win either way.  As mentioned very nicely decorated rooms but issues throughout.

A good hotel at the centre of the town, easily accessible. Wheelchair access present. Very easy checkin process. The rooms are excellent, clean and comfortable. A small tv with good channel selection. The bathroom is clean and good. Overall a very good stay.

Positive experience, good stuff nice decoration goodbye for money good location not really anything bad to say highly recommended

I travel to Wakefield for business 2/3 nights a week & I stayed here after a disastrous stay at Citylodge hotel, which I would steer clear from for eternity. So Limes Lodge seemed like a castle in comparison - I liked the historic building, the bed was comfortable, the room clean, good transport links & the area felt space although not close to town, but walkable. I paid £65/night. A few glitches - the noise from the M62 is very considerable if you like to keep your windows open at night, so I had to close them to be able to sleep. The bathroom was chilly one of the mornings, and I couldn't see any way to activate the radiator. When you check-out, you leave the keys in an open basket by reception - so anyone could take it & mess up the room, which you could then be blamed for later - this didn't happen, but it does seem like they need to change the way people check out. The fire alarm sounded early in the morning on my second night & the fire brigade attended and was apparently caused by a known problem with a fire door, so clearly an ongoing maintenance issue that ruined everyone's sleep. I would stay here again but be mindful of the above.

We are a couple celebrating our wedding anniversary. We pre booked our table for 7,30pm. We got there a bit early, but were able to be seated straight away. We were in Henry 111 restaurant. We were very impressed with the service we got from our waitress and others. I asked for no tomato and no onions on my burger, and that was clearly noted. The food was well presented and very tasty. We would definitely recommend it to everyone. We got married here, so to celebrate our 9th wedding anniversary was a very special evening.
