The room was clean, comfortable and not bad for £29! There is no restauarnt on site so you have to drive to find somewhere to eat. Also be aware that there is an additional parking charge of £5 per 24 hr period so bring some change with you. I was lucky that the receptionist had some £1 coins. There's a vending machine in the foyer for confectionery and crisps and a microwave.

They provided a free room and PA system all we paid for was the meal and wine. The service was outstanding and the portions of superbly cooked food enough to satisfy any gargantuan appetite. Martin held control and in his own inimitable laid back style mastered the evening, truly amazing. The facilities at the Parkway gave our out of town guests the opportunity of using it as a base to visit family and/or the tourist attractions which they all took advantage of. A particular guest has back problems, the Parkway sorted out her bed and she had a wonderful stay. One can ask for nothing more.

Access to the room we were using was via a steep ramp and three narrow doorways and there was no accessible toilet for wheelchair users. The staff were friendly and helpful but the catering was expensive (none of us had a problem with the quality of the food provided but there was little variety for the price per head). The building itself is not immediately appealing from the outside and really looks as though it needs a little work.

Very picturesque property. Well appointed and beautiful. We were here for a wedding and had a…read morewonderful time! Pros: - Property - beautiful, picturesque, well maintained. - Amenities - the Stable Pub is fantastic, great food and beverage selection. The breakfast was also incredible, traditional English breakfast with plenty of selection for everyone. - Price - very reasonable for a nice facility! - Staff - great staff at the desk and Stable Pub. Took great care of us and responsive. The manager in the Stable was great and made us feel at home. Cons: - Room - incredibly small. While comfortable and had basic amenities, but our room was very small. The bathroom was also very basic with the smallest shower I have ever seen. The amenities are nonexistent. The soap was a squeeze bottle mounted to the wall with the shower having a combination "hair/body" wash. - Air Conditioning - fortunately it wasn't terribly hot but found the air conditioning in common struggled to keep things cool. This was common in all areas including the wedding and reception as well as Stable Pub. The room had a potable fan because there was no air conditioning. We weren't in the room during the day but it was warm at night. The beauty and staff at the property made it great. The facilities are very nice but be forewarned about some of the idiosyncrasies. I'd recommend but likely ask for a bigger room and a bath with a tub and shower.

I had the pleasure of staying at the Weetwood Hall Hotel following a wedding which was held here…read more To do this properly, I'm gonna have to split this into wedding location review and hotel review! So, as a wedding venue it was really good. It was actually my first wedding so I don't really have anything to compare to, but the service was streamlined and lovely - a special highlight was the bride coming down the isle to a wonderful acoustic version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow - it felt like a Wes Anderson film! But everything went perfectly smoothly, all of the staff were excellent and there were no hiccups whatever. The meal was probably a 4/5, but I didn't really care by that point! The evening entertainment was basically a not huge dancefloor with some decent pop songs and a few random awesome choices (Crazy Crazy Nights - get in!!!). So as an alternative to a church wedding, this was rather excellent. Now, from the 1:30pm start, the night went on and on after the scheduled entertainment, into the bar area and reception area until maybe 4-5am for a couple of us. One thing that we benefitted from was the presence of other random guests staying at the hotel who hadn't been there long and so still fancied a drink when most had gone to bed! For this, the bar selection was pretty decent. Lot's a variety in the spirits department, and a couple of good draught drinks - I was mostly on draught Budweiser, which I don't see very often. Also, at £3.50 the price could have been a lot worse! Anyway, the room was clean and spacious, with a really big, comfortable bed. Breakfast was surpringly awesome as well - a couple of different types of sausages and hash browns for example for a bit of variety. Of course, I couldn't finish what I'd started and had to go back to bed for an hour before leaving, but all in all it was an excellent experience, and one which I'd love to do again. Oh and they have both giant Jenga and giant Connect 4 in the garden - and who doesn't love them?!?!

Set amongst the woods of Otley Chevin, this hotel is fairly remote yet only a ten minute drive from civilization and the airport, meaning that its location is perhaps its most valuable aspect. The other aspects of the hotel are not without their charms, however - I went here for a wedding and stayed the night in one of the quaint log cabins, finding the facilities, food and service excellent. To me, the Chevin hotel definitely belies it's three star hotel rating. Which is why I give it four.

Update of a previous review which I now have deleted…read more I have been a regular (several nights per month) at this hotel for several years, My company being in nearby Horsforth, though I live on the Wirral. Its had a few ups and downs, but since becoming part of the Crerar Group, many improvements have been made, and still more are planned,many lodges are to be refurbished. It really is a pleasant place to stay. The restaurant, (extended out to overlook the lake) last year now serves excellent food, and staff are polite and attentive. It is good enough to justify an entry under Restaurants as well as 'Hotels'. I am on first name terms with many of the staff. There is a pool, sauna, gym etc. Note no mobile phone reception up here ! Very convenient for Leeds/Bradford Airport. The symbol on the Qype map is in the wrong place ! Its east of Menston on the 'top' road towards Bramhope (now corrected) (later edit 12/11/09. I continue to stay regularly. Many of the lodges have now been refurbished, I am promised one of the new rooms next time. Work continues on the others, completion by February 2011. Hotel name seems to have changed to Chevin Spa (new sign outside). I may be able upgrade to 5 stars when all rooms finished. Dinner continues to be excellent in all respects. New edit, May 25th 2010 work has now started on extending and improving the leisure centre Yet another edit, 9/10/10 Leisure centre now complete, with bigger and better facilities. Some more refurbishment of rooms is to take place. Things slowed down a bit as the excellent General Manager left a few eeks ago, another starts shortly. He will need to appoint a new chef, and change the menus, as they have been working with temp chefs and using same menus for a while. But I still love this place and stay at least twice a month for a couple of nights. We also had a family lunch for 11 here on Sept 4th , my fathers 90th birthday. They did us proud , and threw a cake in free. Still 4stars, not quite five but they are getting closer. And another edit, 28/1/11 New manager Jurgen Kruijt, and new chef in place and this place continues to improve. I stayed two nights again this week, and both dinners were excellent.I particualry enjoyed a starter of three salmon types (marinated, smoked and mousse) and a main course of Gressingham duck breast was ccoked to perfection. There is a heating problem in cold weather in some of the larger rooms (eg 40-48), the smaller rooms and lodges (49 upwards) are very cosy. When occupancy is low , breakfast is served individually direct from the kitchen. When fuller, they do it buffet style, but as with most hotels that do this, some items dont keep sufficiently warm. Still annoying theers no mobile phone reception, but I doubt there is little can be done about it. Further edit 3rd Aug 2011 Still staying very regularly. New Restaurant Manager Rob Holmes is back after a year or so at a Harrogate Hotel. New menus start next week. Table d'Hote is being abandoned. There will be 6 course tasting menu and an expanded A La Carte. I will report again when I have tried it. THEY HAVE ALSO BEEN AWARDED AN AA ROSETTE. Meanwhile the hotel group (Crerar) has initiated a heinous charge of £2.50 for Credit Card payment of hotel bill. I immediately emailed HQ, and got one back from the Chevin Manager, (whom I know) saying they will not charge me as he wants my regular business. This however is hardly the point. !Its a matter of principle. I need two nights every week in the area and this is by far the best hotel in the area. Further edit 9th Aug Well its only a week since my last edit. I tried the new 6 course tasting menu, but it was rather disappointing. I declined the first course (mini Scallop and Black Pudding Salad), second course had a choice of two (I had Quenelle of Salmon, which was very good), then was served a Veloute of Broccoli in a small cup, also good. Choice of two mains formed the fourth course (But one single lamb cutlet, and not too well trimmed, really was far too small, barely a mouthful of lean meat). An excellent poached pear with home made ice cream came next, and finally a very tasty piece of blue cheese on a biscuit with two grapes. By piece I mean a morsel, no more than a half inch cube, one mouthful. Coffee is included. Price too heavy at £32.95. Having said that the A La Carte menu was much expanded with something for everyone, and I am sure this is the better option and will be well executed. Three courses however will certainly cost more than th eold Table d'Hote or the tasting menu described above. I am back next week so will try something form the a La Carte (PS The house bitter has changed from Mary Jane to Ilkley Gold)
