Value for money, but don’t expect the ritz. The hotel is clean, but in need of modernisation. This is for the hotel and also the gym / pool / sauna. Everything just needs updating and a lick of paint. Friendly staff, great little pub next door showing sky and tnt sports with nice beer, nice staff and a good home based food menu.

Clean Comfy Stay

What a lovely place, check in was nice & easy & the receptionist was very welcoming & friendly. We had a drink in the pub & all staff were super friendly, especially the lad who was also on check out this morning! We didn’t have breakfast as we went to my parents house nearby & my dad cooked for us 😊

Good two days stay!

Had a good couple of days in ghe Highfield. Room was a good size and clean, bed and sofa bed reasonably comfortable. Shower needs more pressure....no one on reception when we arrived but quickly sorted with a phone call.

Spotless

The room was vast, spacious and comfortable. Absolutely spotless and immaculate. Very comfortable bed. I slept really well. No breakfast supplied on Saturdays except for Light Breakfast on-the-go at £4, which was adequate and reasonable value. Sunday cooked breakfast not served until 9.30 which was too late for me.

We loved staying at the hotel and we had our 3 year old with us, There was no sound on the night, and the black out curtains helped our 3 year old sleep. The room was was very big and clean so there was enough room for us all. The staff were very helpful and always there if you needed them. There is a area that has toys for children whcih kept our child entertained as we checked in. I would definetly stay

Really good hotel

Our stay at The Highfield was really good. The staff and service was great. Facilities in the room were basic, room size good, but tiny toilet with broken seat, tiny TV for size of room, sofa bed comfortable to sleep, but had definitely seen better days. Sofa bed arms stained, door looked like it had been punched as some paint coming off and wood a bit cracked, and marks along wall behind single beds (didn't affect room, just a bit unsightly). That said, as previously mentioned, the staff and service absolutely made our trip. It was a bit expensive for the state of the room, but I would recommend to others, as staff were so helpful and accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble.

Worn but Worth it !

We arrived early, which proved no problem to the helpful and knowledgeable staff. Overall the hotel was clean but looking a little dated. A good supply of Tea and Coffee was available. The room was a good size with a very comfortable bed. Like many hotel rooms now there was no main light, just lamps, which I find a bit dreary. The attached spa was ok with a nice jacuzzi and warm pool. But like the main building it was a bit 'worn'. Take your own towel or pay for use. There was also no working lockers. A decent pub serves food just over the carpark. £7 breakfast was basic but good value. Juice, coffee, cereal and cooked.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. I understand they don’t set the rates. But at £90 (including discount) it cost a pound extra than the room I regularly use in nearby Shipley, which isn’t exactly the Ritz, but it’s miles ahead of this.
