As a light sleeper, my recent stay at a certain hostel in the beautiful countryside was not exactly restful. The hostel is conveniently located close to the village center, providing easy access to the charming streets and attractions of the area. However, the noise levels were quite bothersome, as the slamming doors and chugging water system persisted throughout the night. Furthermore, the lack of fresh air in the sealed-up bedroom made it uncomfortable, forcing me to relocate to the common areas after only a few hours of sleep. Nonetheless, the hostel did offer some positives such as clean and cozy rooms, a members kitchen, and fantastic views. However, the absence of blackout curtains resulted in an early wake-up call from the bright morning light.

Very close to town center. One kitchen cooker worked well. Rear outside area to sit. Good views from most windows. Beautiful views and well set up room. Communal spaces had a good mix of hostel and pub feel. The Wensleydale cheese factory tour was a highlight. Excellent breakfast. Efficient and friendly warden. Great customer service. Local knowledge was good. Very friendly staff. Went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Delicious breakfasts. Clean and comfortable bed. Peaceful location with stunning views. Great location for walking/cycling/motorcycling. Ample shops nearby. Highly recommend. Miss the place already.

had a fantastic stay at Yha Hawes. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel right at home. The facilities were clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious with a great variety of options. Highly recommend this warm and welcoming hostel.

Breakfast could be improved.

Welcoming staff, perfect location, pleasant and quiet, great for walking, excellent breakfast.

Nothing everything was great.

We had a great experience staying at this hostel. The breakfast provided by Yha was excellent and Steve, the warden, was both efficient and friendly. The customer service was top-notch, with excellent information provided before and upon arrival. The staff had impressive local knowledge, making our stay even more enjoyable. The hostel itself was basic but clean, and the staff were lovely and approachable. The well-equipped kitchen allowed us to make our own meals, and the facilities for cooking, eating, and relaxing were very good. Despite some parts of the hostel showing signs of age, it added to its charm. Our room had a functional ensuite and a nice view.

No ❌.

Great communal spaces, well-equipped kitchen, and comfy lounge area. Spectacular views from the rooms. Hearty breakfast and comfortable beds. Convenient location near shops, pubs, and restaurants. Welcoming staff and excellent hot showers. Bonus: second place in a pub quiz!

Great value for money and lovely staff. They offer affordable breakfasts and have an option for evening meals. Convenient for hikers and the rooms are spacious and quiet. The kitchen is well-equipped and there is a door code for easy in and out access.

The beds are quite hard and the lack of Wi-Fi is a downside, especially since the phone coverage in the area is poor. The plastic mattress protector can make for a sweaty sleep.

The location was perfect, as it was within walking distance to the centre of Hawes and offered beautiful views of the surrounding areas. The hotel facilities were great, with a lovely dining/lounge area that had plenty of entertainment options like books and board games. The staff were friendly and made me feel welcome, even calling me by name. The cleanliness of the hotel was impressive, and the rooms had everything I needed. Additionally, the breakfast was delicious and offered a wide variety of options.

Nothing it was perfect.

Ideal location, friendly staff, excellent breakfast, spacious room, on-site dog.

Can't think of anything.

The location of the hostel is very convenient, close to the center of town and within walking distance to everything. The communal areas are spacious and provide a great place to relax after a long day. The staff is friendly and welcoming, always ready to help. The rooms are nice and airy, offering beautiful views. The well-equipped kitchen and dining area make it easy to prepare meals. the large drying room is perfect for hikers, ensuring that wet clothes are dry by the next morning.

It would be beneficial if the hostel offered Wi-Fi, especially considering the lack of phone coverage in the area.

Had a fantastic stay at this hostel. The friendly staff at Yha Hawes were welcoming and attentive, making our experience even better. The location was great, tucked away from the main town but just a minute's walk away. The living room offered stunning views, adding to the cozy setting. The hostel was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfasts were delicious, with ample portions. Highly recommend this place for its peaceful atmosphere and easy access to walking, cycling, and motorcycling activities. Can't wait to book another stay next year!

This hotel is perfectly located within walking distance of the charming village centre of Hawes. It's great to be so close to all the attractions in the area.

All in all, my stay at this hotel was fantastic.

As young families, we loved the comfortable common area with a great view. The manager was an angel and went out of their way to ensure our stay was comfortable. The drying room and food options were a huge plus for us as hikers. The breakfast had a good variety and the cooked English breakfast was amazing. The staff were friendly and made us feel very welcome. The location was perfect, with fabulous views of the surrounding hills.

Felt very welcome, no complaints whatsoever.

Great and central location - surrounded by many shops and pubs with lots of Christmas atmosphere. The rooms were clean, and the beds were comfortable. The staff was friendly and willing to help us with any questions. Plus, there was a cozy common area with plenty of board games and books to read.

Although the bathrooms were clean, they were quite small and often crowded. there was only one toilet on our floor, which made it difficult to use when someone else was occupying it.
