Nestled in the heart of Thirsk, the Golden Fleece Hotel presents a blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Guests appreciate its quirky, old-world atmosphere and commend the friendly and attentive staff. While dining experiences vary, many highlight the fantastic breakfast and delightful real ale, although some criticize the lunch portions and pricing. The hotel boasts excellent rooms, but a few guests note issues with mattress quality and cold food. Overall, the Golden Fleece is heralded as a charming, centrally-located spot worth visiting, especially for those who appreciate a touch of nostalgia along with their meals.
