The owners were very helpful and friendly. The room was very quiet with excellent ensuite facilities. The honesty bar was great idea and helps donate to a very good cause, long may it continue. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice.

Dee and Steve are a lovely couple. Everything was great, the en suite room was spacious, light and airy. breakfast was delightful, choice of continental and a cooked breakfast. Would highly recommend the Hawthornes. Home from home. I didn't get to order any of the many frozen cocktails that I would have liked to try as I was driving around a lot visiting family, next time it will be an extra couple of days so that I get to relax.

An excellent location for travellers on the A1 and easy to find. Very helpful staff. The restaurant was very popular with families, but our menu choices was not as well cooked as I would have liked and the breakfast was poorly cooked, but this is a personal view. The whole place looked tired and Greene King need to take more care of its inns, this is the second time we have stayed in one and the hot water boiler has failed and there has been no hot water.

Darrington is a small well to do village near Pontefract. Bus service is minimal. Lots of big houses and well tended lawns. There are two pubs and a small general store. Church and church hall are set back from the road (which is busy) We were having a post breakfast stroll guessing the property prices and a local lady invited us to a coffee morning, which was nice.

The hotel was right next to the A1M but had little if any noise from it. It was ideal to break up the journey further north for a funeral & then the return journey. Bed was very comfortable and large, staff were very welcoming and friendly, having a pub attached gave a great choice for evening meals and breakfast.
The only criticism was the occasional uneven floor in the room

I travelled to spend time with family. The staff are great. Location is good just off the A1. We visited Bridlington Beach for the day, which has a lovely beach and funfair and restaurants. It is about 1 hour and 20 mins from Darrington.

The only good point for our reason for being there was the location.
Every other aspect of the Darrington Hotel was unpleasant, in fact downright disgusting! The place is filthy and the constant TV sport, in every nook and cranny, is unbearable.
The rooms are tiny, the shower was minute and we had one chair between us. No hanging space or drawers.
The food was awful, badly cooked, badly presented, cheap and nasty, though not to buy! The breakfasts were appalling! Little choice, poor quality, like warm water to make tea or coffee, there was nothing good about the breakfasts. The staff? Scruffy! One lad in particular, with filthy jeans, long dirty hair and an arrogant swagger, looked more like a tramp than a waiter!
Many years ago we lived in Darrington and that hotel was our local. It was then a decent, well kept place. Now, it is simply disgusting!
Vicky, Paul and Lorraine were all outstanding in their hospitality!!! couldn’t rate them enough. The food was very enjoyable and the staff were all incredibly friendly. My mum and I arrived at the Darrington with my two small children who obviously are very needing. Everyone was super helpful and I asked for a lot from them and they were all ready to help out! Even when it came to warming to the children’s milk up! No complaints, just genuinely happy to help.
Very convenient location whilst travelling down the motorway. Lovely clean rooms, with very nice en suite and large screen tv. Food is excellent value and high quality. But, the best thing about The Darrington is it’s staff. They were all incredibly friendly and helpful, they really made our stay that little bit more special. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again if we are in the area. Fantastic place.
Hotel reception is just left of the pub, so you don't have to walk through the pub. Our room was large, with a full ensuit. Shower over bath, lots of very hot water. The staff were all lovely & friendly. The hotel is located just off the A1 but we didn't hear any traffic. Large free carpark.
Decent breakfast, choices of fresh fruit, yogurts, pastries, cereal, toast and the hearty full English.
Staff friendly and location was easy to find. Hotel clean and modern bed super comfortable and large flat screen TV prefect for snuggling up in front off after a hard day
