I loved this hotel. It is quirky and stylish and, above all, comfortable. I had a lovely large room and to say it had a 'cathedral view' was an understatement. I couldn't see anything else - the cathedral is the other side of the road.
The staff were lovely. Friendly, efficient and helpful.
Plentiful restaurants are just around the corner.
I will undoubtedly stay there again if I am up that way in the future.
Fabulous location, great place steeped in history, friendly staff. Only downside was the pull out bed for the kids which was poor, shame as everything else was spot on.

In need of TLC
Service was good staff friendly room clean but not very comfortable, the hotel itself was tired and in need of refurbishment which is a shame because it could be a special hotel
Great stay at the Deanery with a perfect location across from the Cathedral and all the lovely local restaurants, was staying for business but would defiantly base out of here to see more that Yorkshire has to offer.

Lovely, but tired hotel. Staff very friendly. Only disappointment was lack of evening meal. Lovely position opposite cathedral in Ripon.
A hotel full of history and quirky rooms. The sloping bedroom floors and wonky doors are part of the charm of this lovely little hotel. The staff are very friendly and the cooked breakfast is one of the best I have ever had.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The carpet in the bedroom was stained in several places & in urgent need of a good clean or replacement.
Whilst in the main our stay was comfortable we felt the Hotel needed a bit of a face lift.
We loved our stay at the Old Deanery. Such a lovely location next to the cathedral and the garden was great for a drink in the evening. Would definitely stay again!
Fantastic 3 night stay while visiting family. Lovely room with great facilities and a view of the Minster. Staff were very friendly and breakfast delicious! Would definitely stay here again in the future and would recommend. Also great safety procedures in place during the COVID pandemic
