The hotel and facilities were excellent - unfortunately that cannot be said of the dining experience. We were sat at our table by the recommended 7.30pm - our order was taken at 7.50pm - our starter arrived at 8.30 pm which was cold on arrival and sent back - we were advised that the main course would be 10 mins - however after 40 minutes still no main course even speaking to the duty manager the food arrived at 9.35pm This whole dining experience really tainted our opinion on the hotel capabilities to serve many people within a reasonable timeframe. On seeking the Hotel General manager he was advised on the fiasco that was dinner and he arranged for us to pre-order our food for the second evenings experience which went according to our satisfaction. They really need to get the whole dining room serving capabilitybetter organised as looking on Trust Pilot it looks like it is an ongoing problem -

Had early tee off so finished by half 12. Couldn’t check in till 3pm which is fair enough but we had an early start for travelling time (5:30am) Eventually was able to check in at 16:20! They room was in poor condition. Window locks were broken and a large hole in bathroom door. They gave us evening meal time for 20:30pm which was unacceptable but managed to rearrange to 18:45pm. There were a very large group of 90 men golfers staying alongside other guests and only one bar staff on. Tempers were getting heated because of the wait time. My friend tried to assist by glass collecting. Went to tee off the following day and were informed we weren’t going out as a 2 ball now as they had added another 2 to our tee off. It was that backed up by the time we reached the 14th (5 x sets if 4 golfers waiting) we walked off the course We have gone to Slaley for 10 years. This will be our last time

Golf courses were excellent Food and drink service was really really slow and food quality was poor. For dinner we were told we had a £32 food allowance then we were given a really poor set menu instead of just ordering from the lounge menu which I was told we would be able to by slaley hall reception 2 days before arriving. Dinner on night one from the set menu was really slow over 2 hours for pre ordered food before our golf round isn’t really what we expected and really small portions and rubbish quality food. At the first nights meal we were asked for our food order for day 2 from the same poor menu, i asked the waitress if we could order from the lounge menu and she said it would really help the chef if we just did the set menu. I offered to pre order there and then from the lounge menu for night 2 and she checked with the chef and this was accepted. Night two’s dinner was at 7.30pm we didn’t get our pre ordered starter till 8.10pm and then our mains was around 9pm which is crazy when we gave our order the night before. We also didn’t get a side and 2 desserts we had pre order despite asking for these. Bar is seriously under staffed and slow for service. The food and bar service would really put me off here again. Which is a shame as golf courses are really good, we used the spa facilities and they were also good,

Claret Jug (golf bar) lunch sandwiches took more than 30 minutes to arrive and a local golf member quipped, "Is the food as bad as ever?" and it probably was...surely they can find a bakery to provide decent bread - who needs a fish finger sandwich in a wrap!

This is the fourth year that I have taken a party to Slayley Hall. We have had varying experiences with both the Hunting & Priestman courses and this has mainly been due to the weather that preceded our visit. The greens has been aerated and sanded some time prior to our arrival and this was evident in their condition but in fairness to the course it needed rain as the north east has had very little rain in recent weeks. Upon our arrival there were numerous large groups who were arriving or had arrived at around the same time. There is a spike bar at the venue which is inadequately staffed to accommodate numerous golfing groups, my group of thirty two people started arriving at the course from 11 am onwards and there was one member of staff working behind the bar. There were a number of other golfing groups who all shared the same frustration due to the shortage of staff. The one member of staff that was in attendance was under great pressure trying to take orders for food and beverages at the same time the card machines for the tills were slow which added to the log jam of people requiring service. In the evening we had our evening meal at 20.30 and the dining room was very busy. My party were given three large round tables this was insufficient as the tables were not big enough to accommodate a party of 32 at best each table could seat 8 this meant that a number of my group had to be seated away away from these three tables away from the main group which was unsatisfactory, there should have been a fourth table to accommodate 32 people together. The staffing issue at the venue requires addressing.

We made do with the snack bar menu that was offered, however, we waited until 9.15 pm for a lukewarm basic snack meal, and then 10.20pm for a dessert course - this was not a 4* service. Had we been placed in the Restaurant as requested we would have definitely overspent on our meal allowance and added wines. In the end it was not the experience we have had on previous trips to Slaley and was very disappointing. These issues have been raised.

Better booking direct with the hotel, its avoids the errors due to lack of communication by the agent to the hotel and the hassle as a result. Probably get a better deal too and most important get what you booked jn the first place.

We had a party of 16 for a two night stay, everyone agreed it was a good venue with very helpful and polite staff apart from one lad in the pro shop who was downright rude, so much so his college came out to find me and apologies for the way he had spoken to me!! Food was ok, Breakfast was fine with a good selection. Dinner got a little confusing as some people had 3 courses some only 1, the £28.00 allowance was applied to all meals, and if you had gone over slightly they charged regardless of savings on other meals, this then became more confusing as some people had left the table when the additional bill came out! not a great system in our opinion, a straight forward £28.00 menus would have been better. Also we were allowed 2 free drinks per person per room which they new nothing about, but we did get them after a little sorting out.

An example was the steak, which had a lot of fat and gristle, a small amount of rocket salad and about 6-8 chips, no mushrooms or tomatoe, which you usually get with this meale and the it was much of the same with the rest of the selection

Drinks are expensive, but that's to be expected with a captive audience. Breakfast was very good ~ loads of choice, but the evening meal menus weren't particularly rich in variety or quality. The place itself is a little tired and could benefit from a refurb in places. For the cost and quality of the stay I'd say it was punching a little above its weight.

Good hotel but we had a few problems.

All of our party had problems with their key cards which involved a very long walk to reception to have them reset on numerous occasions. Bars were fine if a little expensive, the dinner on each day was average bar food. The most disappointing thing was the buffet breakfast which was invariably cold on each morning. It's a shame as the staff were attentive and helpful.I can't comment on the spa facilities as I didn't use them myself but my colleagues did comment on how cold the pool was.

Very disappointed with the courses and restaurant. Fairways and greens in poor condition after recent maintenance activity. Green fees did not reflect the poor quality of the putting surfaces. I have played on better winter greens. Fog came in on the second morning but the starter allowed people to tee off in dangerous conditions. He thought that extending starting intervals to 15 minutes would be ok. Visibility was 50-100yards and this decision was very reckless and probably based on trying to keep the course open and avoid reimbursement. Needless to say we packed up an left. Dinner on second night was a disaster , were allocated another late 9pm slot despite having booked more than 2 years ago. We waited and waited only to be told at 945 that they could not supply our dinners as ordered, They scraped together some soup and burgers to try and keep us happy along with a token gesture of waving some drinks costs. All very poor and not adequate recompense for the disappointments. Never ever will I return and my only recommendation for this place to anyone would be to avoid it like the plague.

Quite a shock to the system as hotel was very busy and not really much social distancing or face masks especially in busy areas. Most staff also chose not to wear face masks which was quite surprising, especially when government are still recommending masks worn in busy areas. Lack of staff and I thin experience of staff was pretty obvious, took us two hours to have our dinner in the restaurant, then I had to go up to ask the waiting staff for our sweets. Tables very slow to be cleared and prepped for next guests, same applied at breakfast. Hardly any visible staff, no bread for toaster, no fried eggs left, no milk for cereal, lots of empty trays. This spoilt the experience, when we came out from breakfast huge queues had formed which might not have happened had tables been promptly cleared and prepped. Beautiful place lots of nice little nooks and crannies and nice seated outdoor areas. Would be a good idea to have a matrede in the dining room to make sure everybody is utilised as efficiently as possible.

Such a shame the place is running short staffed. When you wait 45 minutes between your main course & your desert & the chips were cold. I am not a complainer, I sympathise with the staff, the chips were cold as there was probably no one to bring them out. Just like the deserts would have been, if they weren't deserts! The new thing with Slaley Hall is, If you want fresh towels, toiletries, t bag or coffee you have to ask? As they do not service your room until the "Third" day/night of your stay. Sorry to all the hard working staff, but your employer isnt helping you guys, your jobs or their reputation. As their standards are way down.

Friday night went well drinks in the bar before a reasonable meal. Saturday we were asked to pre order our evening meal before going out to golf, this is always a strange thing to do when you’ve just finished breakfast. Snacks in the Claret Jug were expensive (even with the discount card) and not brilliant. We struggled to get pre dinner drinks as the bar was full of wedding guests, the only other bar is the Claret Jug. The evening meal was poor. Again drinks expensive.

After a wet afternoon on the course we had to queue for 20min to get booked in to you rooms only one person on reception. We booked twin rooms and we got double rooms not ideal for four men. The meal was booked for 6.30pm when we sat down we were told that that table was reserved for some one else but after checking it out it was for us seemed to be a bit of a shambles. Not nearly as good a stay as we had two years ago.

Quality of food and service on the 1st evening was very poor, but they redeemed themselves somewhat on the 2nd night. Seemed to be a breakdown of communications betweenness YGT and Slaley Hall as they got our evening meal times wrong on the 1st night, even though the hotel receptionist confirmed the evening was booked for 7.30pm on arrival (Didn't get to eat until circa 9pm, not very good for 36 hungry golfers)

From arrival onwards, staff were helpful and attentive. The rooms were well appointed and comfortable in every way. The facilities catered for everyone's needs and offered lots of variety. The only criticism would be that the furnishings and the food in the Claret Jug, where we ate left a lot to be desired and could easily be brought up to a standard worthy of the rest of the hotel.

Booked 3 weeks prior to trip and requested 2 buggies for both rounds as my father in law has 2 hip replacements and struggles to walk course . Upon arriving at pro shop 45 minutes prior to tee off was told no buggies available as there was a corporate day and I quote “it’s been booked months and there’s nothing I can do” to cut a long story short was told in an abrupt tone that it’s up to my agent to request buggies and they hadn’t and if I wanted to wait until 11:00 am (it was 9:15 am at the time) there might be some available. For a 4 star hotel the staff both in pro shop and clubhouse could do with some customer service training . Hotel, rooms, food and golf courses lovely but staff not great unless your a big corporate booking I guess .

We particularly liked the separate snug rooms (between Hadrian's Brasserie and the bar) where you could sit quietly with a drink. We believe a games room somewhere in the hotel would be a good addition with a snooker and/or pool table and a table tennis table perhaps. We found all the food and drink of a high quality, however we would like to see a wider selection of beers available. There was a choice of just 3 lagers and 2 ales across all the restaurants and bars.
