The hotel was a former Manor House set in the back drop of beautiful green hills and fields. We were welcomed by a blazing log fire which I sat by reading the complimentary newspapers. The decor was rich with a a bold red hallway leading us to the bedrooms. We were early so we ordered a Sunday Roast and we sat and ate in the airy dining room. It was very good. The room was beautiful, it cannot be faulted. The furniture was in keeping with the period house. There were lovely long floor length curtains blackout curtains. A deep luxurious bath with gorgeous soaps. The bed was so comfortable and pillows fluffy it was dreamy. The room and bathroom was spotless. To top it all there was complimentary water, tea and coffee in the room. Before breakfast we walked around. The grounds, garden and lawn were picture perfect. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order, using local produce and was delicious. There was a choice of traditional Yorkshire breakfast, kippers, smoked salmon and Egg Benedicts, plus cereals , fruit and yogurts. It was just an 8 minute walk from the station to this quiet peaceful haven, and 15 minute leisurely walk to the beautiful historic town. Certainly the best 3 star hotel I have stayed in and better than many 4 stars. Excellent.

I cannot think of anything to dislike.

Beautiful location, The room was absolutely stunning so so beautiful! Bed beautiful and so comfy!!!!! Garden was lovely and beautiful

We just felt like there wasn’t enough staff to help! And looked like staff were over stretched. On our first morning we went to breakfast we didn’t know where to sit and the breakfast display really wasn’t very inviting. The breakfast menu when we seen it on our table was nice menu and the food was beautifully presented and very nice just would have been better even if we had an hello and shown what to do! … The bath water wasn’t very warm, would have been nice to have been given some more tea, coffee supplies the next day.

A hotel taking residence in a delightful old manor house / rectory in the most beautiful of locations - Settle. This hotel oozes understated grandeur, being luxury in nature, but small enough to be called boutique, and free from the nouveau riche baubles of large opulent hotels. Arriving at the hotel, you pull up on a traditional gravel drive, and well tendered gardens. The house itself is old, well maintained and beautiful. It hasn't been stuffed full of dusty antiques, and instead nods to its past through choice pieces of art and modern ornaments. An ever lit fire greets guests in the main hall, followed by warm and welcoming staff. Not only was the room far better than the pictures gave it credit for, but also the food, it was perfectly prepared and executed cuisine that would happily grace any of the most in-demand restaurants in London. The head chef and their team delivered excellent dish after excellent dish. This is a tasteful and relaxed hotel, for those that appreciate such luxuries. Bon séjour!

A minor detail but the keyring to the door key was ill-suited to the decor and ambience of the hotel. I would also recommend that the hotel uses a luxury double topper when pushing two single beds together to make a double bed - it will provide far greater comfort to the occupants, who may wish to make vigorous use of the bed, or simply wish to spoon.

The hotel is an amazing building with real quality and history. The room we had was fantastic, a four poster bed with grand high ceilings and a great view over the hills. The quality of tea, biscuits and toiletries provided in the room was all very good. We enjoyed a high quality breakfast during our stay too, suggesting quality local produce is being supplied. The staff were great, being attentive but not intrusive and we felt fortunate to have foud this gem of a hotel which is often booked up for weddings. We would definetely look to stay at Falcon Manor again.

There was nothing needing any improvement.

Breakfast was fine, a fine array of options to choose from. Whether continental, cooked breakfast, cereals or fruit it was well catered for. A cooked breakfast was done to order.

I had a cooked breakfast and had a sausage that unfortunately contained bits of bone! Nobody else on my table complained (after some fruit or toast they also had the cooked option) so I'm guessing it was just my bad luck!! Apart from the gardens requiring to be extensively weeded here and there nothing else to report and since it was just an overnight stay I don't think we're qualified to say anything else.

What an absolutely stunning hotel. We couldn't get over how nice it was! I booked it due to the location as we were doing the Yorkshire 3 peaks the next morning at it was ten mins drive from our starting point. I wished we'd booked another night! The grounds, the reception areas, the food and the staff /service were exceptional! One of the nicest hotels I've stayed in.

We had dinner in the evening and the food was delicious, fab service! Jez you deserve a raise, reception, bar man & serving food you were so welcoming everything was perfect. Also arranged a pickup as we were leaving early and missed breakfast.

We were cycling the Way of the Roses and were made to feel very welcome when we arrived at the Falcon. The reception area is beautiful and had a lovely fire burning in the hearth and candles everywhere. The receptionist told us to bring our bikes through and they were stored in a small room. We were taken to our room which was beautiful. The bed and linen were so comfortable that, once I'd laid down for a rest, I didn't want to get up again! The bathroom was immaculate and the shower was great. The privided toiletries were lovely too. We had water, ample tea and coffee and biscuits in our room. The breakfast selection was very good. Service throughout our stay was excellent. I would highly recommend the Falcon for a stay in Settle.

Location and aesthetics of the hotel are superb. Plus the majority of staff are excellent and very professional…

… however there we’re unfortunately a couple of staff members who would have personal conversations loudly across the breakfast room. One time they were complaining about the shifts they were on at the hotel. Obviously an ok conversation to have but perhaps could have been better in the kitchen or backstage

What did I like? Absolutely Everything!! I had a beautiful room with a lovely view. It was a double room with a 4 poster bed which was so comfortable and although quite big it was ever so cosy, warm and welcoming and I felt totally at home. The breakfast was superb with lots of choice and I cannot praise all the staff highly enough. They were so friendly, helpful and efficient they completely made my stay such a wonderful experience. I had to catch an early train on my last day before breakfast but the staff very kindly made up a packed breakfast for me to take when I left. I so appreciated that as it was a long train journey home. It is a beautiful hotel set in lovely gardens and although it was winter I could still appreciate the beauty of the area and the town.

there was absolutely nothing I did not like or anything to find fault with and I would be more than happy to return to this venue if visiting the area again,

Very comfortable room with a large double bed. Nice restaurant on site, although the 3 course menu was a bit limited in choice. The staff were welcoming and friendly.

Our room was at the back overlooking the bins and above the kitchen doors. The noise and colourful language of the staff meant keeping the windows closed, which in turn made the room a bit stuffy
