Chose this hotel over others in Holmfirth due to the claim of parking - there are marked parking bays for the hotel rooms (1-4) however, the “car park” (it’s not really a carpark, it’s parking bays along a road side) is completely open to anyone who wants to park there, it is not enforced as being for guests only, there isn’t even a sign up asking non guests not to park there. We therefore couldn’t use the “on-site parking” at all and our car now has 2 large scrapes down the side which occurred whilst parked on the on-street parking near the property.
The room (junior suite) was very nicely decorated, however the room is not conducive to a restful sleep - old single glazed sash windows providing absolutely no soundproofing whatsoever and the property is situated on the main road. There is also a green light in the ceiling which was exceptionally bright and lit up the entire room to the point where you could clearly see as though the actual lights were on all night.
Other irritating things (that probably wouldn’t be a problem other than feeling ripped off that the promised parking didn’t exist) was there being 1 teabag in the room for 2 people and the staff not knowing where tea bags were kept, and being asked immediately upon check-in what we wanted for breakfast without even being given a menu, and when asked what there was being told “oh usual stuff like bacon and sausage” Unsure why you have to order the afternoon before, nor how you expect people to order without info
