Matt, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were amazing - we arrived slightly later and they found us a table and served us a dinner in double quick time - the wine was excellent too. Room was as expected for a country inn in Settle. Breakfast was good too.
Mary, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice room & goodies for our dog. Accommodated gluten free allergy. Room was quiet. Good to have real milk in room for drinks, makes a big difference.
Alicia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommended - full of character and tastefully styled rooms - excellent restaurant and bar dining in a ‘local pub’ setting. Pay& Display parking nearby (or use the Settle Social Club car park reduced rates) - well worth a visit to this charming community

Central position lovely hotel. Room Attractive decor, clean and comfy bed. Tea/ coffee & water supplied. However it was a Very warm evening and a little noisy as room over overlooked courtyard. Food and drinks rather expensive, menu traditional but really nice. We would stay again if in the area.

A welcoming, relaxing stay

Welcoming and comfortable stay. We enjoyed every minute of our stay at the Golden Lion. A very friendly and well run place. The staff worked hard to ensure we and our dog had a fantastic break. The food was excellent and the room had all we could want.

Great staff. Very nice hotel. We were at a concert and was a shame that the bar closed so early as would have loved a pint after.

Fantastic place to stay in a really lovely town

Really clean and nice place to stay. Great food and a nice friendly atmosphere in the pub. My friend & I were doing the 3 peaks challenge the next morning and the hotel made arrangements for breakfast to be left out early for us so we could have something before we left.
James, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Short stay for a local wedding

The room was lovely, bathroom wasn’t as clean as it could’ve been and the hot water at the sink was dangerously hot. The shower was great though, really powerful. The bed was comfortable and we both slept really well. The breakfast was nice but small portions for the full English. I think the jars of jam etc are a bit of a waste, maybe some smaller tubs might be better. All the staff were amazing, friendly and good service.
Nichola, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean and comfortable rooms with good amenities. In the centre of settle so close to shops, restaurants and walking paths. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious with a good selection of options. We would definitely stay again and recommend to others
