Reviews for The Woodlands Hotel
Review 1：The fact that the rooms are directly above the bar and you could hear the jukebox never mind the karaoke that was on till 1am
Review 2：Staff were friendly but weren't honest about telling me karaoke was on in the first place and then that it didn't finish till 1am
Review 3：As a solo female (and shattered ) traveller the last thing I want is to have to walk into an public bar and check in with several men staring at me. The room was dismal and grubby with flickering lamps and a truly awful bed with ancient bedding , no mattress protector , an ancient mattress a broken headboard and a broken base. The bathroom shower cubicle was child aize and the whole set up was so depressing I left after an hour and booked another stay in Shipley
Review 4：The only saving grace for this place was the lovely female manager that greeted me
Review 5：Bit of a walk to and from the nearest bus station, but the countryside on the way is beautiful
Review 6：Very friendly staff, clean building and a great pub downstairs
Review 7：that hotel is not real a hotel. its a pub with rooms. no breakfast no sockets in bathroom very very noisy at weekend. like a disco. never a 3 star hotel.
Review 8：free wifi
Review 9：with only a few rooms in a pub some noise was expected however a wedding reception was booked that night so no sleep was gained till gone midnight. No mention of evening meals or breakfast and not been able to hand keys in as pub all locked up and had to use fire escape as leaving before 9am and landing floor alarmed.
Review 10：Bed was comfy
Review 11：I wasn't given any checkout instructions and ended up setting off an alarm and wandering around for 10 minutes (making me late for my meeting) trying to figure out where to give in my key as the main desk (read: bar) was closed.
Review 12：The room was clean and whilst not huge, big enough for just me. The wifi was fast and overall the stay was comfortable.
Review 13：Really friendly staff and locals both of which were most helpful. Entertainment for the night was first class. Loved the accent, very easy going people with exceptional manners.
Review 14：The floor boards in the room creaked every time you walked on them and not just in one spot but all over the room, they creaked so loud that you could even hear them from the next room when they walked as well. The carpet in the bedroom was marked with an iron and generally not very clean. The walls would have benefited from a lick of paint as they were also marked. The noise from music/karaoke/and customers went on until well past 1am with the music literally booming. For the price paid I would expect the rooms to be at least checked daily to see if we needed fresh towels or tea/coffee etc but no one went into the room. Unable to find any staff when we left at 11am and therefore had to leave via the fire exit, had anyone been available I would have discussed the above problems with them. While they may run a good pub they have a lot to learn about running the hotel side of the business.
Review 15：The food served in the pub was expensive for what it was but it was tasty.
Review 16：I stayed on karaoke night and it was very loud. Room was vibrating. Went on til midnight. Not good as I had to be up for 6am. Should have been informed about karaoke before I booked as I never would have booked
Review 17：Cozy
Review 18：No food service provided for guests as they had a wedding on which had a loud disco until the early hours
Review 19：Nice hotel tucked in the woodlands back water away from Bradfords industrial sites. Looked promising with home cooked food.
Review 20：Private party with loud disco music until 01:15 followed by much laughter and loud conversation until gone 03:00. Breakfast option no longer available to quote the member of staff "that shouldn't be on the website any more". Tiny TV. Location in a housing estate.
Review 21：Close to the M62/M606 motorway junction and 10 minutes from a Toby Carvery that did serve breakfast!
Review 22：On returning from dinner on the Saturday night we planned a few quiet drinks at the bar - but on arrival found a karaoke night in full swing. Not our scene so we retired to bed - while we could hear it going until midnight downstairs it wasn't loud enough to stop me from falling asleep (the bed must have been good!).
Review 23：Lots of British charm - just what I was looking for.
Review 24：Kitchen problems during my stay ruled out being fed either evening or breakfast. Staff did offer and did get me a takeaway meal. I stayed Saturday evening, so you had to like karaoke music. Good crown in bar all friendly but one or two very drunk and loud.
Review 25：Staff very friendly and helpful. Comfortable and clean. Price good.
Review 26：Restaurant not opening again until April 1st 2015 so no meals available. This is not clear in the adverts and represents a major disappointment as an on site restaurant was a major factor in booking. No breakfast offered either, presumably for the same reason.
Review 27：Room clean and comfortable. Wi Fi excellent. Quiet.
Review 28：Breakfast on Sunday finishes at 0900...We missed it. 10am would seem a more realistic time as other hotels we have stayed in do this
Review 29：Basic room but all you would need at hand

Review 94：Friendly local. Nice country location on the outskirts of Bradford. Convenient for M62
Review 95：Room was not the best. Bedroom was in serious need of cleaning & upgrade
Review 96：Friendly and welcoming
Review 97：There was nothing during my stay that i did not appreciate.
Review 98：Made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived, food was no longer beinging served but they were happy for us to order food in. i think all in all i felt very relaxed and had an enjoyable evening and stay.
Review 99：Would have liked more choice of real ales and was concerned about leaving by fire door as there was no way back in if anything was forgotten but I wouldn't want to put anyone off from staying at this property and would certainly use again.
Review 100：Room was fine,menu was both excellent for price and variety.
Review 101：Karaoke on the Friday night was very noisy and stopped me sleeping until it closed at midnight.
Review 102：Friendly helpful staff. Nearness to Motorway. We were in Bradford for a family funeral so it was good to feel relaxed . Bedroom adequate for one night stay but bed a bit on the soft side for our liking. Loved the pub dog!
Review 103：Bed was a little bit on the small side. No shampoo in bathroom or hairdryer. Maybe some information provided when booking would help to organise to bring some along.
Review 104：Great location for what I needed. Staff all friendly.
Review 105：Only disadvantage likely to be having to use the fire escape to leave if you wish to leave early in the morning as the rest of the pub is still locked and alarmed. But I didn't need to leave early so not an issue for me.
Review 106：I liked the location, rural, but close to a major bus route should you need one to get to Dewsbury or Bradford city centre. Nice relaxed pub with friendly pub dog and locals. Decent menu, food served all day up to 8 p.m. Plenty of car parking space in the car park at the rear.
Review 107：Slight concern about being able to get back in after pub closing hours but I didn't put it to the test so it probably wasn't a problem.
Review 108：A very relaxed friendly atmosphere. You could order a takeaway meal later in the evening and are provided with crockery and cutlery by the landlord. The room was spotless and very comfortable with a nice bathroom. Loved the pub dog.
Review 109：Corridor lights shine in room all night! Door signage confusing I.e. car park via Toilet, Room access marked 'Private'. Exit via Fire escape!
Review 110：Learnt that the Campanile is the Better option!
Review 111：Getting locked out and having to get a taxi to the nearest Premier Inn and stay there for the night making for a very expensive nights stay. Was told if you would be back after 12:30 to ring the landlord. Rang and rang and texted but no response. When I went back for my stuff I was informed they should have left a door ajar; theydidn't
Review 112：Got a partial refund
Review 113：First time we have stayed in a hotel and had to make our own bed! Party downstairs was loud and beset by drunken behaviour. If you want to leave early AM its via a fire escape (no light). Not the greatest place we have stayed but it was cheap.
Review 114：Friendly, helpful staff
Review 115：Very friendly bar staff.The host Paul makes you welcome and the menu is good and value for money. A very friendly atmosphere in the bar and you are treated like a regular. Would not hesitate to stay again.
