Best Western Waterton Park Hotel - Wakefield, United Kingdom 

Having stayed in so many hotels throughout the UK on Business, it is great to have finally found what I would consider to be simply the best hotel in the UK, not a title I would give away easily as I am a very fussy Customer! The staff are superb, really friendly and helpful always taking an interest in you as a person, you certainly will not be just a number in this hotel. The hotel is set in a wonderful location very scenic, around a lake with boats available for fishing and a golf course. There is also a swimming pool and a gym. The rooms are very clean, comfortable, spacious and well equiped. You will be guarenteed a great nights sleep, there is no noise, a real bonus for me.The food is simply excellent and very reasonably priced. It is great to find somewhere to relax after a hard day in the office, a real home from home.

Like the hotel advertises it is a “Gem in a hidden valley” My partner treated me to a weekend away and he couldn’t have chosen a lovelier spot for a bit of R & R. We both enjoyed every element of our time spent at the Waterton Park. And who’d have thought it in a place like Wakefield! We were staying in the newer part of the hotel (on the mainland) our room overlooked the lake and older building on the island which made for a beautiful awakening on a morning, a lovely way to start the day. The size & d?cor of our room was fantastic, we thought we’d been upgraded however it seems all the rooms were just as gorgeous as ours (We asked to have a look at some of the other rooms – cheeky but fun!) With us staying for two nights we dined in both the main restaurant and Charlies Bar. The food and service in both were second to none. In fact the service from all staff in each department, no matter where we bumped into them, was great. Oh and whilst we were there we got to see a very happy couple celebrating their wedding. The pictures must be wonderful! Well as you can probably gather I had a great time at the hotel, and would recommend it to anyone. We will certainly be going back.
