The hotel is closed!
Booked shortly notice, paid and received a call to say closed. No notification of refund yet. The girl who called us was helpful in booking us in elsewhere so all not lost. 1 star provided as unable to give actual review. Where we did say said it's been shut a while and unlikely to open so be careful when booking

The radiator in the room didn't work. I went to see the staff, and the boiler wasn't switched on, which is very strange for January !!. The boiler was on but the radiator didn't work on either day of my visit. 2 heaters were provided, but the person in charge wasn't aware of the issue with the boiler/radiator, which was poor in my view.

Horrendous
This place did not live up to previous reviews. The building was dilapidated. The wallpaper was ripped. The room was small with very old furnishings snd furniture. You had to walk through a tiny kitchen to access the rooms. It was very noisy. If somebody used a tap the whole building could hear it. We finally got to sleep at 4.00am. We didn’t want to eat our evening meal there and so went to the pub next door. Breakfast was limited. Cereal was corn flakes or muesli not much choice. Definitely not value for money.

Perfect stay for a nights getaway!
Really great stay here for a night. It was situated in a lovely quiet place. Couple of nice pubs close by which had good food. Hosts were friendly and polite, especially the sweet little doggo! Rooms were tidy and had really good amenities, along with a fire stick so we were able to stream Netflix. Full English breakfast in the morning was really good. Overall would stay here again!

The staff was polite and helpful. The accommodations at Dante were exceptionally good for such a small hotel in a small town. Yes, the Dante is very old with beamed ceilings but that is the charm of a small country hotel. The room rates are especially good. The only shower of my eight English hotels that had a bathmat was the one at Dante Arms in Middleham. Congratulations, Dante. Also, Dante had a shower which could easily regulate the temperature unlike most of my previous hotels. The room rate was good: I was in room five with a rack rate of only £75 (ca $100). My room also had a hot water bottle covered with cloth, a nice comfort for wintertime nights. Lastly, Dante Arms offered Half of a full breakfast, which is good because I usually could not complete a whole full English breakfast. Dante's bar was good for beer and hamburgers. One unexpected benefit of the Dante was its proximity to the stalls for race horses which clopped each morning in front of the hotel.

A nice place, but a lot of stairs. :)
We stayed here for a weekend to visit a local music festival. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and had clearly put Covid precautions in place. The full English breakfast was excellent, and the staff made sure that we were well fed before dashing off for the day. The room was quite small, but that’s to be expected given the history of the building, which also explained all of the stairs. The bar downstairs has a wonderful ambience. Definitely a nice place to stay if you’ve got no mobility issues.
