A great place to stay.
This is an excellent hotel right in the heart of Ilkley with easy access to plenty of places to eat and drink. Right at the foot of the Moors, there’s plenty of amazing walks starting right on the door step. The staff here were all great and very welcoming and attentive from start to finish. The room we had was spacious and very clean with contemporary furnishings and all the amenities you would want. Highly recommended place to stay.

The cleanest room & bathroom in Ilkley!
The Black Hat is a long-term favourite when I stay in Ilkley. For business users, it's great with breakfast served from 7:30am, including fully cooked options and lighter items like cereals. The rooms are immaculate. The two ladies that keep the place tidy should win an award for the cleanest toilets (and overall bathrooms and bedrooms) in Ilkley! It makes the stay so much nicer when it is totally spotless. You can really see the attention to detail in the cleaning and tidying. The pub itself has a good atmosphere, a mixed crowd with plenty of younger folks too, plus a great beer garden and sheltered / heated huts outside.

Very good but lack attention to detail.
Lovely stay but disappointed with lack of non dairy alternatives at breakfast, particularly as I let them know in advance. These days, these items should be stocked as standard. Attention to small details like these are very important.
