Lovely old coaching inn 1668, very comfortable room, huge breakfast, great friendly service. Lovely characterful building to be in. 2 points A bath mat on floor would have been good, & more toilet rolls.

My family and I visited The Royal Oak today for lunch, this being our first visit. With varied menu choices, the three meals we ordered were simply wonderful!! Home cooked, great portion sizes and absolutely delicious!!Not to mention how quickly the meals arrived after ordering! I found the environment very pleasant and the staff were friendly and helpful, caring about... More

After reading previous reviews we were not expecting a great deal, BUT were informed on arrival that a new manager was in situe. We were taken up to a clean, tidy (if a little outdated) room and informed that a karaoke was on later in the evening but would be finished by 11.30pm (it was). Had a good comfy nights... More

The staff are... More

Room (Pendle number 1) OK and basic though price of £80 rather steep I think. Bed too not the best either. Breakfast good but little basics like fresh milk rather than those mini plastic cartons wouldn't... More

Settle was the first stop doing the Way of the Roses coast to coast cycle trip. We stayed at a B&B down the road and went to the Royal Oak for a beer and food. My friend had one of the specials - minstrone soup. She said it was the worst thing she had ever tasted... like a can of... More

We stayed in Settle whilst visiting the railway, so this hotel is well-placed for such a visit. What it gains with its location it loses with its lack of caring. The building is charming, with wood-panelling etc., but really needs a LOT of TLC throwing at it - the place simply looks unloved. Worn carpets, un-mended minor damage, lack of... More
