The Old Registry Guest House

Had a gorgeous Christmas meal with a group of friends here. The setting is beautiful with fabulous decor in period style. I had a pear salad starter followed by the most delicious sea bass cooked to perfection in a lovely sauce. The staff were attentive and very welcoming. Overall one of the best places I’ve eaten.

Lovely warm and welcoming, family run guest house. 2nd time here and as always Leanne was the perfect host, nothing was too much. We had the Christmas menu for tea on the 2nd night, food was beautiful and presented well. Jan and the girls helped in the evening and was smiling and helpful, will definitely come back again. Aileen and Stu (jamesons) 😂

We had a two night stay in the Cherubs room. Was so lovely, the bed was comfy and the decor is eclectic and quirky. Just our cup of tea :-) fabulous location on Main Street and within walking distance of all of Haworth's famous areas. Great value for money too. A great base for exploring the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Would visit again

It was okay. Not exactly in alignment with what I'd hoped for the setting of a romantic Brontë getaway, but it just about worked. Not a fan of the set up: that no one was around when we came, and that we had to talk to someone through the com to know how to get in. Anxiety. They suggested there was a black business card to put on the dashboard of our car, to park at the neighbouring hotel. There were no business cards. More anxiety. Also, the hotel website suggested we'd have to pay them to park at a neighbouring hotel's parking lot, while the neighbouring hotel who owns it doesn't charge anyone for parking! That's cheeky. It was a pretty nice-looking entrance, and a nice looking bar and dining area, though the stairs could do with re-carpeting. I don't recall, in those three days, witnessing a bar-tender. Seemed superfluous. Our room was fine. It was Gothic enough to satisfy, but it was shabby rather than luxurious. Our mattress was very good, though the bed itself was really quite small. At one point, it seemed the hot water ran out, and while we didn't need it at that moment, I thought that if someone had needed it to wash, there'd be no one to help as no one was around. Personally I didn't feel I would want to call the phone numbers on the wall lest I get a grumpy or tired person who has to explain how to fix something. It's bad service. I did feel the room was a little grubby, and I didn't necessarily feel comfortable using the blankets, pillows, or cupboard. The toilet basket was very dusty, and I didn't feel comfortable putting our toilet paper in that. That's a very easy fix for those at the Registry. The towels were too thin. The plughole was stiff and would pop out, meaning some hot water was wasted when trying to fill the bath. We did both like the bath separately. We could hear some noise from the neighbours both above and across, but we didn't experience any real issues. Watch out for the rather large spiders too. Lol. We had two of the same variety - one had unknowingly been tread on and the other we flung out the window. Bit creepy - and I'm good with spiders! They did not serve porridge, which seems like a no-brainer and was a bit shocking and a let down. Aside, we were both, as vegans, made to feel a bit uncomfortable - like it was annoying... or like we couldn't trust them to accommodate us. We specifically asked for the vegan alternative Full-English breakfast and the waiter came out with two large fried eggs on the plate, which felt like a farce. We were left to wonder if it was deliberate. They sorted it out, but it awkwardly confirmed our initial worries. The breakfast was otherwise fine I suppose. They had green tea! Do feel the Northerners at the other tables got better treatment which felt odd. It was an okay experience all in all. Good location. Could be better if they invested in it a bit more.

Luved it here. The girls are pleasant. Rooms are quirky. No shortage of food n drink establishments nearby. Decent chippy. But The Fleece pub/diner is very good. Id stay here again.
