We liked our room which was spacious and comfortable. Staff were very helpful. There was a little noise on Friday evening, but then you would expect that at a pub.

Nice staff, excellent Sunday lunch that I couldn't eat because the plate was stacked. Warm and comfy bed, couldn't fill kettle in the small sink. Shower was feeble. I didn't pay for the ritz, it was great for what I wanted.

Poor, do not stay here.

The rooms are very squashed, and it's right above a noisy pub. Not great for a good night's sleep.

When we got there it turned out it was wrong hotel in grassington it was for the same hotel but in Cheshire. Same photo on advert just different area , staff there said it happens a lot. Very disappointed that this happens on a daily basis. This also happend to two of our friends who stayed here on same day and they ended up paying extra 100.00 for another room . We ended up going home wasn't paying any more than we already did for one night. Highly disappointing that this happens regularly and nothing gets done about it.

Cosy little room above village pub

The Foresters Arms is a cosy little room above village pub. Room has everything you need including a mini fridge for fresh milk. Traditional pub food served by friendly staff. Worth noting that they stop serving food in the evening at 7:30 prompt, but the host will knock something up for residents. That being said there are plenty of other eateries within walking distance.

Poor.

Very noisy until 1am, room over the bar and beer garden. Sounded like a dish washer came on at 5am. Smell of cooking from the kitchen. Bathroom so small when you bent to wash your face you had to have the door open.

Upon arrival i was shown to my room by the barman, i asked him when they stopped serving food and he said he wasnt sure. I told him i would ne down about 7pm. I got down to the bar at 7.15pm, ordered a pint, looked at the menu and asked to order food, only to be told the Chef had gone home. The Barman knew i was coming down but apparently said nothing to the Chef, ended up going to the indians next door which wouldn't have been my first port of call. I wont be returning.
