Greeted with a smile and a homemade piece of cake at reception and then shown to a comfortable room with all necessary amenities. Needless to say the Molton Brown toiletries were exceptional as were the tea making facilities with biscuits / chocolates thrown in. The restaurant was well appointed with a good range of beer and wine. The staff were attentive and friendly without being obtrusive. Similarly, the breakfast food variety and serving staff were of an equivalently high standard.

Some miscommunication over the EV chargers but quickly resolved

Ambience and view from our room. Everything was perfect, clean and very presentable. Nice comfy bed plus a big settee. Cooked breakfast was excellent, all fresh and hot.

Please take this as constructive criticism, the lack of disability parking (2bays) for the size of the Hotel which are not marked very well, infact are painted blue on the floor and hard to see in the dark. No other signage to indicate the disability parking bays. This probably was the reason why a Mercedes G Wagon was parked in one of the bays without a blue badge showing. Also the other option for me to park was an EV charging bay which again not very clear signage, 2 bays both with cars parked that where not EVs. Last time we stayed we had breakfast in the dining room, this time we had to eat in a small lounge room and go into another room for drinks etc although the cooked breakfast was served at the table.

A spacious, very comfortable room (we were given a complimentary upgrade to a junior suite) with classical music playing as we entered the room - a nice touch after a Friday evening rush hour drive. The WiFi is very fast if you’re on business and the hotel is ideally located just off the A1 (but far enough away that you wouldn’t know it was there) to break up a trip from London to Northumbria. Staff were very attentive and communication before arriving was superb. Breakfast on weekends is served from 08:30 but they were happy to bring both cooked and continental breakfast to our room at 07:30 so that we could get an earlier start.

I’d take beans with my cooked breakfast but apart from that I can’t fault it

A super-comfortable - and elegant, 'country' boutique hotel that exudes quality at every turn. Warm, thoughtfully appointed and spacious rooms, with extremely comfortable bed with lovely linen, nice small touches in the room such as 'treats tray' and nice toiletries etc... Staff friendly and professional, lovely seasonal decorations and a welcoming feel to the place overall. The Wentbridge is quite well known in the area as a place to go for a special meal or afternoon tea and I have to say the breakfast was beautifully done (cooked fresh to order) and the dining room itself stylish without standing on ceremony. If you're after lots of facilities, this place won't be 1st choice - BUT if you seek a wonderfully comfortable place to rest your head for the night then this is your spot if you're heading through Yorkshire up the A1.

It isn't a cheap choice but then, you get what you pay for. Fair value I think overall. Would I stay again - absolutely, if I was in the area for a meeting or special family visit. I'd also say that if you prefer somewhere with lots of facilities on-site, e.g., a gym or large bar area etc... it is unlikely to be 1st choice but for what I was after, it was spot on. Location within minutes of the A1 (south of Pontefract, North of Barnsely and the M18 junction) is both a positive and negative - negative in the sense that the hotel isn't located in the midst of Yorkshire's most stunning countryside so those seeking serious country walks etc may well select somewhere a bit more off the beaten track.

Beautiful location just off the A1. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and overlook the beautifully kept grounds. The staff are very friendly and accommodating.

We had dinner in the Brasserie on our first night and were disappointed with the qualité of the food. Serving up dry, tasteless Yorkshire puddings in Yorkshire should be avoided. The only other comment I would make is that we were automatically billed for à charité donation to, I believe, the West Yorkshire Ambulance Service; while this is doubtless a worthy cause for the people living in the area, it makes little sense for people who come from abroad, like us. I personally think it would be better to discuss the matter first with guests.

The bedrooms are very comfortable, spacious & quiet. We also loved the festive vibe created by the lovely decorations.

Couldn't have breakfast on Christmas Day morning because the first available slot was at 9.45 - much too late! We have stayed here for many years & this is the first time we have not been able to have breakfast. Also, the configuration of the shower in our bathroom was tricky - we had to stand in the bath to switch on the shower because the screen did not move to allow access to the shower controls, so a bracing start to the day! .

The food was fantastic, both the evening meal in the Brasserie and breakfast in the restaurant. After informing the hotel it was our anniversary, and that our first date had taken place at the hotel, we received a complementary upgrade to a garden room which was absolutely gorgeous. The hotel staff were most helpful and communicative prior to our stay; more than happy to work with me to ensure flowers were delivered to our room before our arrival. We also received a card from the hotel staff wishing us a happy anniversary and a pleasant stay which was a lovely touch.

The weather could have been better but we accept that is not within the control of the hotel!

Easy to locate from motorway. Property and setting was beautiful. Staff were friendly from check-in to check-out. Food was good with plenty of variety, Room was lovely and spacious - husband slept through his morning alarm due to the second most comfortable bed that he has ever slept in worldwide!! Home being no 1 :)

The outside light on all night outside room 60, I get that it's for security but it needs to be adjusted to face down the drive. Limited lighting in the main room was a little bit of a problem when reading. Noise level and closeness of tables in the evening restaurant made it difficult for my husband and I to hold a conversation.

The grounds are just beautiful, we attended a wedding here on Saturday. To be honest the staff were absolutely fantastic they couldn’t do enough for you as a guest. Lovely lady behind reception gave me her bobble (so lovely) I was a little worse for wear the morning after (too many Proseccos) they went out their way to make sure I was ok! The day was just so special, lovely facilities aswell, love the new updated decor.

The only thing I would say is it was soooo warm, we noticed the radiators were on in the toilets.

I telephoned the hotel to advise them that I had broken down and was working with the AA to get me going but I may be late booking in and for my evening reservation. When I finally arrived, wet and exhausted, I was greeted with "oh fantastic you made it. would you like to go into the restaurant now or should I give you some time to relax first. Oh and would you like a rasperry brownie" An understanding friendly face was just what I needed thank you
