Excellent second visit to the Malthouse. All staff are very friendly and welcoming, especially Andy ‘whose asking’. Quality food and drinks, room was perfect, comfy bed. Perfect location to visit the local sights around Calderdale and beyond. Highly recommend 👍

I've stayed at a few places in this area and this is currently the one I would recommend - it's very cosy, clean and tastefully decorated, the staff are friendly and helpful, plus the food/drink was very nice. Only very minor complaint is no biscuits with the tea and coffee making facilities in the room, you need a biscuit when you have a cup of tea!

Staff were very friendly, and pub/hotel was a good location. Dining area was welcoming and comfortable. Food was good and the kitchen went out of its way to meet our needs. The radiator in our bedroom wasn't working, but the staff tried their very best to find a work-around, including providing portable heaters - they were very helpful in a difficult situation. The bedroom hadn't been thoroughly cleaned - it was dusty. However the bedding was spotless and the bed was comfortable. The shower area could benefit from refurbishment. Toiletries were provided, and a good supply of towels. There was good parking.

Great overnight stay
We had a lovely overnight stay at The Malthouse starting with a delicious meal downstairs before retiring to our comfortable room. Breakfast the following morning was equally tasty. This made a great place to start to explore Yorkshire including The Piece Hall in Halifax, East Riddlesden Hall near Keighley and then on to Aysgarth Falls.

Wouldn’t hesitate to return
The room was very clean, a good size (could have taken a larger bed or twin beds - hint, hint! - easily). The bedrooms are up two flights of stairs. Shower was over the bath. It was quiet overnight even with the window open. Our breakfast choices were tasty and very good. We also had a late lunch/early dinner on arrival which was good. Staff were courteous and pleasant. There is ample free parking available. Within easy distance of Halifax, Hebden Bridge. Sowerby Bridge itself less than 10 minutes drive away. Haworth is reasonably close. Easy access to M62 with Manchester and Leeds not too far away if you’re looking to do a day trip. It is a good rate for b&b and we wouldn’t hesitate to come back for another o/n stay or to recommend to others.

Fantastic stay at the Malthouse last night…amazing outside bar, fantastic staff, great food, what else can I say??? I just wish I was clever enough to write my review in the form of ‘Rindecella (those who know, know 😉). Seriously though, great place to stay, great evening meal…and, after reading the reviews on how good breakfast was, it didn’t disappoint!!!! Thanks so much to the whole team for a brilliant day/evening/morning 🙌👏🙌

Comfy stay
A warm welcome, comfy room and spotlessly clean. The bathroom is a little dated but that’s in keeping with the age of the property. As usual in a double room (huge comfy bed) there was only one chair and we’d like to have two if we’re in the room for any length of time.

Thank you Malthouse Team
I chose the Malthouse because this was where my dear brother and his wife had their wedding reception 1964. 16:02:2023 was the Funeral and indeed a celebration of my brother and I thought The Malthouse was a perfect place to stay having travelled a considerable distance from Scotland. This was a challenging occasion for me but on arrival at the Malthouse ‘Andy’could not have been more welcoming especially when he asked the reason for my visit . The accommodation at the Malthouse was perfect for my needs , warm , comfortable and very hospitable. Andy and his team are to be commended for the service and indeed compassionate way I was received and treated. Perfick

Great but could be better
Absolutely wonderful hotel and restaurant, sadly let down by service. Room obviously newly refurbished to high standard, unfortunately it wasnt the cleanest , hairs in bathroom and marks left on surfaces , strangest was the broken toilet seat , snapped in half on the bit you sit on and glued together rather than replaced.Come on , how much is a new seat ? Had a great meal , really good for the price.However service was a bit chaotic, with no dedicated server to our table , asked one lady twice for another drink and bar never got the order, ended up going to bar myself after 20 mins , it didn't seem too busy so not sure what was going on. Despite small issues we would go back , really nice place and good value.

Good find in nice location with super food.
Lovely staff. Friendly service, and good ambience in restaurant.. Sampled main and snack menu. Both good. Imaginative dishes and traditional food with generous portions. Room stylish with attractive decor. Room well cleaned and fresh towels daily. Flow from bath taps rather slow but not major issue. Easy to park.

The Malthouse
The staff and management of The Malthouse are very pleasant and helpful. The room was very comfortable and spotless. There was plenty of wardrobe and drawer storage. Shower and bath were also in great condition. We had a beautiful meal in the restaurant. Overall, a very pleasant break in a convenient, beautiful location. A great base to explore Yorkshire and Lancashire, very close to the motorway.

Excellent overnighter at the Malthouse
This place is newly refurbished and therefore in great condition from the bar/dining areas to the room/en suite. Furnishings and decor are excellent throughout.Though we didn`t take to much advantage of it due to the weather and time of year, the Malthouse also has a vast and well furnished ouside area, too. The dinner menu is quite limited, though there is also have an additional good value £10 menu. Breakfast was generous and well cooked and presented. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the bar well stocked, having some good guest beers. Location great

Highly recommend this great hotel
A warm welcome on arrival was carried on right through our stay; all the staff were friendly, polite and helpful. The food and menu choices were very good. All rooms have been refurbished and we were very comfortable. Super gardens to enjoy with plenty of seating. The hotel only has rooms on the second floor and there is no lift so sadly the Malthouse is not suitable for the disabled or those who cannot manage the stairs. Wished we could have stayed for longer!
