The Talbot Hotel, Malton, North Yorkshire

We love staying here. Even though the hotel was busy the staff take the tile to make you feel welcome and at home.

Great looking hotel, very comfortable Country House style indoors . Excellent ambiance. Very generous room size and well appointed . Complimentary slippers are a great touch as the tile floor of bathroom is very cold ! Parking is good, a little walk away in the large grounds .

All of the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful

Very good

An absolutely stunning property with spectacular views. Cool shops and pubs within walking distance. Staff was extremely helpful, friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Good amount of parking on site. Over the road from the talbot yard and a short walk into the market square. Good for foodies when the Saturday food market is on. We had dinner in the onsite restaurant on the first night of our stay (steak), my partner asked for medium rare but some of it was underdone. He should have raised it at the time but I mentioned it at the end of the meal and and we were highly satisfied with how they addressed it and with utmost professionalism. I asked for mine to be cooked medium and it was lovely and the sticky toffee pudding was lush! (Note that the onion rings are more like onion petals but they were very nice). The bar is a great space for a relaxing drink and there's some nice grounds round the back of the hotel which you can walk round. The room was spacious and clean with a lovely ensuite bathroom, although some of the furniture was a bit tired (chipped paint and one of the bed side lamps blew, which i reported and it was taken away). Despite some of the issues (which were dealt with), I would certainly stay again when back in Malton.

Everything was perfect. Would definitely go again

The food and staff are absolutely wonderful. The room was beautiful with a canopy bed and a sitting area which was a welcoming area to relax after a day of sightseeing. It's also very well positioned for day adventures to the coast and York. The management team were also very visible for information and they even arranged my laundry. I would like to mention the food. The kitchen staff did a wonderful job as did the wait staff and housekeeping. Thanks for making our trip memorable. John and Agnes room 16. The best room.

As a signature coaching inn, the quality and cleanliness met with our expectations, however what let the brand down was the food offer, which was at best quite bland and did not live up to previous coaching inn experiences we’ve had at other hotels within the group, which is why we have rated as good not excellent. We avoided the breakfast for this reason and sought a breakfast elsewhere

The hotel was kept spotless during our stay. The staff were all very friendly & helpful, especially Rhianne! We would recommend the Talbot to anyone looking for a super hotel at a very reasonable price.

Lovely. Friendly staff, big rooms.

Vanity unit cupboard??

Friendly and welcoming members of staff, felt more like entering a posh home than a hotel. Gorgeous bedding and room. The little extras, box of chocs, handwritten welcome message with camomile and lavendar relax spray - so nice. Hope to stay again.

An absolutely outstanding hotel in every regard and will have no hesitation staying here again.

A very pleasant stay for a nostalgic visit

Very comfortable stay, room size was upgraded without extra charge. Lovely big room. Light sleepers may not enjoy the roadside rooms, however this was very comfortable and really nice bathroom and powerful shower. Blackout curtains.

Thoroughly enjoyed a very comfortable stay at The Talbot. All staff are incredibly helpful, food is excellent and surroundings are maintained to a high standard.

Good position, near to train/bus stn. Very clean, bedding good quality. More suited to adults, but all staff helpful.

The room was beautiful. All the little extras made such a difference, such as the chocolates, Dyson hairdryers, slippers, water etc. staff are very friendly and the breakfast was delicious. Be back soon

Very friendly and helpful staff providing excellent service helping to enhance our stay.

What an amazing hotel , this exceeded all our expectations We booked a suite at a reasonable cost and it was fantastic Staff very friendly and food was really good Excellent location

A lovely stay in a very nice hotel, all the staff very friendly and attentive.

What a joy to spend 3 nights in a hotel where all the staff were friendly and welcoming and understood the importance of high grade service. The bedroom was bright and spacious with a wonderful bath and shower room. Little touches like a Dyson hairdryer and quality teas anf coffee in abundance made a difference The public rooms were creatively decorated and the bar area welcoming and comfortable. The food was top class and at a competitive price, served in a dining room with wonderful views over the valley. The outside terrace was just another bonus. Ample secure parking I recommend this hotel without hesitation.

In general the food was good but I found the fish and chips option very greasy on the Sunday roast was lovely. The staff were all very attentive and friendly especially our waitress Reanna? (a short girl with glasses).

Great location the room was really nice decoration and cleanliness really good However the breakfast was really poor ,small pooley presented

It does feel very much like you are enjoying a peace of history in comfort so all good. Bathroom cabinet needs some painting under basin.

Fantastic hotel with gorgeous room. Would definitely stay again

I had a wonderful stay at the Talbot. It was excellent value for money and the room was fantastic. All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The bar and restaurant were comfortable and had a great selection. I will absolutely be staying again.

Property is well maintained. Room was clean with good facilities. Restaurant was excellent. Staff were very friendly. However, we were unfortunate and allocated a room on the road side of the hotel. It was very noisy - lorries passing within a few feet of the bedroom window all night. Impossible to sleep from 5:45 onwards.

Friendly, helpful staff. Lovely decor and atmosphere.

Excellent customer service. Duty manager (Ben) and the other staff were extremely welcoming and happy to help whenever he could

Lovely rooms, friendly staff and very helpful, breakfast we’re always nice and tasty, would stay here again.

Lovely hotel in the market town of Malton . Staff very helpful and friendly.

Great period hotel with service to match. Also an eye for detail. Would definitely stay again!

Our second stay at The Talbot and it didn’t disappoint. It’s a cracking hotel, great staff and very easy walking into Malton.

Very old property but still was very clean

A fab place. will be returning

Vg

This is an excellent establishment. It’s in the centre of town close to all bars and restaurants. The staff are extremely courteous and helpful.

We stayed just briefly for a night on our way back from Scotland. The hotel was super easy to find, had parking right outside the door and a pleasant atmosphere with guests enjoying dinner on the terrace. Staff was friendly, the room nicely decorated and without trying too hard, which I did appreciate. Even my husband who usually struggles to sleep through the night slept soundly. Thanks so much for a pleasant stay!

We had a great trip to the Talbot. People , service and Hotel were great.

Loved going to this hotel for the first time. Very nice room facilities 1st class. Food was excellent. Lovely out look over the country side. Would go again.

Exceeded our expectations after a last minute booking. So close to everything and lovely grounds to sit in and enjoy a drink or a snack. Rooms were spacious and very well equipped. Would definitely recommend.

Throughly enjoyed our stay at the Talbot, it's a unique venue with excellent facilities and staff. The food was great, as were the views and surrounding area. Quite a few shops and restaurants in Malton are closed on Monday, so that's worth taking into account. It didn't detract for our stay though. We will be returning.

Beautiful views and very close to some lovely coffee and pastry shops.

The bedside light didnt work.

Consistently first class customer service.

Lovely hotel , 5 years since our last stay and it’s better than ever. Staff and service excellent , rooms quirky and tasteful, we will be back soon

We came to celebrate our Diamond Wedding Anniversary here having stayed in 1965 as newlyweds. The hotel has been completely updated and our room( no.3) was luxurious. The comfortable bed was more than 6' wide and the bathroom huge with walk-in shower plus roll top bath We took our toy poodle with us who was welcomed by all the staff. The food was fantastic and very plentiful. The dog could stay with us for every meal if we desired. All in all a fantastic stay. All the staff from the Manager to housekeeping were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble.

We stayed in a lovely spacious room with a couch, a large bathroom with bath and walk in shower on the ground floor. We had breakfast every morning with fresh coffee and a freshly cooked breakfast. We dined in the hotel every evening. The evening menu cared for our needs and the staff were very good.

All excellent.

Fabulous hotel on the edge of Malton. Room was huge with a great view over the gardens and river, though if you get room 11 or 12 its a bit hidden away and not properly signed from the staircase. Highlight of the stay was the staff. Everyone we interacted with was professional , courteous and surprisingly all local

The bedrooms were well-decorated and characterful- definitely not motel style. The communal areas were charmingly set out and very comfortable. The atmosphere was true to the hotel’s past history and staff were exceptionally polite and accommodating.

Attractive building, clean and comfortable, with really pleasant and courteous staff.

Lovely night at The Talbot as we were at an event at The Cook’s Place. The room was bright, airy and spacious, and staff all willing to help. Breakfast was delicious. We’ll definitely choose to stay again.

Friendly staff. Warm and cosy hotel. Good breakfast. Reasonably priced bar.

Hotel location in Malton is great. Car park free and plenty of spaces. Staff welcoming and accommodating. Food was good, albeit had to wait 1.5 hours for Sunday lunch as I believe the dining in the bar area was fully booked, which had a knock on effect in the restaurant....however we were in no rush and had a lovely afternoon there.

Martin the manager is so professional, he is everywhere. Nothing is too much trouble! All the staff are brilliant…

Great location and friendly staff

Really enjoyable weekend break, staff very professional

So lovely and friendly

Faultless stay

It was a suite, so plenty of room for my wife and I to entertain our friends who were also staying here for my wife’s birthday.

Really lovely hotel! Lovely decor, room was great. All staff were lovely we encountered. Bar space is big with fires and the lounge area was nice to sit and have a coffee by the fire. The breakfast was nice and we even managed to use the car charger out front during our stay to top back up ahead of going home. We will be back!

Beautiful hotel, great spaces, lovely large bedrooms. Gad dinner in the restaurant, food was delicious, although a small menu. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast was great too. Highly recommend.

Absolutely amazing

All was good apart from the evening meal. We had 2 roast beefs but the vegetables were rock hard and the roast potatoes looked like boiled potatoes. The beef and yorkshires were fine. Disappointing as the Talbot is always of a high standard with food.

We stayed for one night on our way home from a mini break lovely hotel and very dog friendly. Staff and service was excellent. The hotel is in a great location for visiting Malton

Nice place, visited a few times, just evening meal wasn't up to usual standard this time round.

Great hotel in a good location. Rooms were spacious and clean. Staff members were very friendly and helpful, we were made to feel very welcome.

Lots of traffic passing fast by,bar very close to our room

The last few stairs on floors 1and2 have no handrail. The rest of the stairs are easy. Lovely people and very enjoyable stay.

What a well run hotel. Great location. Spotlessly clean, wonderful staff, warm welcome. Had a really good breakfast & now wish we'd had dinner there. Can heartily recommend.

Great that the hotel allowed us early access to our room as we had an appointment at 3.00pm. Much appreciated

Great welcome, and a lovely, comfortable room. Nice to learn about the history of the place as well.

Wonderful clean well maintained and well managed hotel. Staff absolutely fantastic . Food great at breakfast and dinner . Extremely comfortable bedroom with excellent facilities . Free parking and free EV charging a bonus too !

Really friendly staff in the old. It grand hotel. Nice bar and restaurant . Dog friendly with large area for dogs to run free. Large car park . 2 minutes walk from centre of Malton and on main bus route.

Friendly helpful staff food was lovely room was very clean with nice toiletries bed was comfy couldn't fault anything.

Beautiful property, very traditional and bedrooms spacious and extremely comfortable.

A very well run and instantly comfortable place Staff are very upbeat and always willing to answer questions.

It was very very good, not just good. But excellent would have been too much of a statement. Staff were really nice and helpful and they did not disappoint. Hotel itself was lovely; room was really good, the bathroom was quite noisy due to noise from kitchen extraction system below, but it wasn’t unbearable. Unfortunately there wasn’t much a view either, but once again not a game changer (room 22 for information). Hotel organisation could be a bit slicker in management but in general it was very good and I would happily stay again, maybe in a different room. Well done to the whole staff team.

A very friendly welcome and can not do enough to help give you a lovely stay

Xyz

Was very well looked after. Staff couldn't do enough for us & it has a great outdoor space that we were lucky enough with the weather to enjoy.

Very characterful hotel.

Intimate hotel for a couples break. Fabulous interior and excellent outside area. Staff friendly and could not do enough for us. Restaurant is amazing. Room was brilliant - the hairdryers are Dyson for goodness sake - no expense spared!

Staff (with the exception of whoever is in charge of the kitchen) and allocated room both excellent, let down by the worst full English breakfast I’ve had in a very long time. Cold baked beans, hard poached eggs, undercooked and fatty bacon, greasy mushroom, hard edged black pudding, pale looking sausage. How wrong can get a breakfast?

Beautiful hotel and location ! Staff very friendly.

A beautiful period coaching inn with wonderful views. The staff were amazing, friendly & dedicated to ensuring our stay was pleasurable. For the elderly it is worth mentioning that there is no lift, which makes access to the upper floors somewhat challenging. We found the diner menu somewhat limited & unvarying, but this did not detract from our overall experience sufficiently to completely mar our stay. This is the only reason we cannot give te hotel an overall 5 star rating.

Very dog friendly a lovely place to stay would highly recommend the Talbot Hotel

No problem with the hotel itself

Nice, slightly aged, hotel, within walking distance of town centre. Comfortable rooms with nice touches. Friendly and helpful staff.

A really lovely stay at the talbot hotel. Staff were excellent Thank you

Great stay , only slight negative was the lounge area which had the smell of dog about.

Everything was great apart from the room overlooked a road and it was quite noisy at 6am. Also our evening meal was a bit cold but the staff sorted it out and the food was delicious.

We had a fantastic stay at the Talbot. It really is a beautiful hotel and the team working there were very friendly and helpful. Every bit of our stay was perfect - I just wish we could stay longer!

3rd time staying at the Talbot Lovely hotel big bedroom +extremely comfy bed Large relaxing lounge area Only down side to this visit was the very slow food service in both the bar and the restaurant We waited over an hour in the restaurant on our 2nd night

A lovely hotel Everything about it was excellent from the room it’s decor and facilities The staff were extremely friendly and it was a joy to stay in the hotel Would definitely recommend

Beautiful stay at The Talbot, loved the room decor and facilities. The team were so friendly and helpful with any queries we had. Also delicious food and beautiful surroundings- would definitely stay again!

Excellent hotel in easy walking distance of the station with good standard rooms and food. And polite helpful staff.
