YuUnited Kingdom很吵，房间很闷，我整宿无法入睡。
宠物友好。
整晚根本无法入睡！房间晚上空气很闷。打扫也不是很干净。我无法给这一次的酒店打超过一分的评价。我一晚没睡！厕所水管响了一晚上。早上起来给酒店服务员打电话，被一句：这房子很老他们也无法解决打发了。虽然之后经理态度诚恳。但我整晚根本无法入睡。而且隔壁只要有人拖着行李走动。声音就很明显。早饭也很不满意，我因为有狗狗无法很方便取餐。我点了熏肉+番茄。当我看着菜单跟服务员说我还想要炒蛋的时候，服务员一脸不屑的看着我说？你还要另一份早餐……

What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether breakfast is in the rate or added at checkout, and what time it runs.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about Skelwith Bridge Hotel
What time is check-in and check-out at Skelwith Bridge Hotel?
Check-in is from 3:30 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Skelwith Bridge Hotel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Skelwith Bridge Hotel?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Is breakfast included at Skelwith Bridge Hotel?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Skelwith Bridge Hotel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Skelwith Bridge Hotel?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Skelwith Bridge Hotel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Skelwith Bridge Hotel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
