Emailed with a query before our stay, wasn't answered. On day of departure asked if we could pick our case up later, was told no. Had to wheel it around Skipton for two hours before our train. Disappointing that the pub closed so early on a Sunday.

Fantastic location - a 5 minute walk from the railway station. Minutes walk to Skipton Town Centre. I have had a wonderful ×3 nights stay at The Railway Inn. Highly recommend. Lovely friendly staff, I felt very welcome -which is much appreciated as a solo traveller. Lovely warm, spotlessly clean ensuite room @number 3. Delicious home cooked food! Thankyou!

The bedroom and en-suite were very clean and welcoming. The staff from checking in to checking out were warm, polite and professional. The breakfasts and evening meals were exceptional and value for money. No complaints whatsoever and would definitely stay again next time we are in Skipton.

Cosy little hotel

The room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Not too far to walk to the town hall where we were watching a show. The service we received was great but the breakfast was disappointing.

Very friendly staff. Excellent food- thank you chefs. Comfy clean room. Friendly atmosphere. Convenient for shops, train station and buses. We were above the bar but didn't really hear any noise. (The bar closed 10pm at the latest) Road works had just started on the street but as we were out during the day it didn't affect us. Always managed to get a parking slot on the street. If we were to suggest improvements it would be to have a couple of shelves in the bathroom and a light above the bathroom mirror. We would certainly recommend this lovely little pub. A BIG Thank you to all at The Railway.

Great bed, extra pillows. Good breakfast, wish it was longer. They were pretty busy so I didn’t feel right bothering them for the WiFi password, maybe they should put it in the rooms?
