This hotel is in a nice situation, facing the market square in Thirsk, a pleasant little market…read moretown in North Yorkshire.
Our room was okay, and faced away from the square, so was very quiet, but offered little in the way of a view.
Good sized, en-suite bathroom, however, it looks like you have to buy the toiletries as there is a price list ! On enquiring, we were told to use what we wanted to and that the price list was if you wanted to purchase more to take home.
The bar was out of the one beer that I wanted, and the restaurant was out of a couple of our preferred food choices, so we left without eating there.
Nice lobby and lounge area. More genteel than the nearby Three Tuns (Wetherspoons) Hotel, but we prefer the Three Tuns, which offers great prices on food and a friendly, if noisier, experience.
Handy for the James Herriot Museum, and this hotel (Golden Fleece) has free parking out back, which the Three Tuns does not; although there is paid parking out front.
