Where do we start? After a bad experience with a booking the previous evening, we were lucky there was a cancellation at The Silk House. From the moment we pulled up outside the hotel Nicholas was warm and welcoming. Check in was seamless and we had drinks in our hotel room which was clean and comfortable. Before we went for dinner we had drinks in the bar, the owners recommended places to eat and drink and even offered to cook some food if we were unable to find a table as we didn’t have a reservation anywhere. The morning after we were offered complimentary fresh coffee and a friendly chat. We wouldn’t hesitate to return and only wish we had spent the whole weekend there. Thank you again

The bath! Big fan, it was huge. As was the very comfy bed. The bar area was great; lovely decor, stunning stained glass windows, drinks selection and full of character. Staff were friendly and helpful.

We went on a Monday and quite a few of the good restaurants close by are closed on a Monday, for example the 3 italian restaurants that I had my heart set on. But there are plenty of other places we could eat, and I think we could have eaten at the hotel if I had arrived earlier. However it was my fault and absolutely no fault at the Silk House.

A lovely characterful house in a lovely characterful street in centre of town. Room was large, well equipped, with plenty of wardrobe & cupboard space, & bed was comfy. Hotel itself was quiet, & the host was friendly. Leek came as a real surprise, so much to see & do (not to mention eat & drink!)

Traffic outside hotel (& all round town) is a problem. Maybe some secondary glazing would help for rooms at front. Otherwise, consider asking for room at back, might be nice to overlook the garden.

Lovely period town house hotel situated in the centre of Leek, within easy reach of the main restaurants and public houses. Can recommend the local Wetherspoons “The Green Dragon”. For decent food and a friendly atmosphere with a decent pint to be had. If you like your authentic German or Belgium beers etc I can recommend the Der Engel and the food is exquisite.

Nothing

Convenient to everything in Leek places to eat and shop . Also many tourist places to visit eg Alton Towers and Peak District. A very good venue for weddings etc or events local It was verynice and Staff a d Owner very helpful and

Gorgeous period building with interior decor to match. Warm welcome from the hosts on arrival and when trying to get to the restaurant we’d booked we couldn’t get a taxi so Nicholas offered to drive us. Incredibly kind and blew us away. Our room was spacious, clean and a gorgeous bathroom. We faced the street but didn’t think it was particularly noisy, just as much as you’d expect and we slept fine. Still offered delicious food & coffee on check out despite not booking breakfast. All in all a lovely stay in a gorgeous hotel!

Handsome room in an atmospheric property with a lot of history and character. Manager very happy to chat and share his knowledge of the area, and love of music! Good value, tasty breakfast.

My room was onto the street, which was a little noisy from traffic but not really that bad

The room was clean ,the bed comfortable. Very spacious room .couldn't fault the room at all .the gentleman running the hotel was very friendly and helpful .would definitely recommend. The location was good for all amenities.

No mirror in the bedroom. No meet and greet when you arrive

I liked the old character of the beams n stained glass n how the character has been kept n how comfortable n classy the rooms are kept with an exquisite bathroom n having a lovely cosy bar down stairs with great atmosphere with a great host Nicolas

There is nothing I could fault

Host was pleasant. Accommodation comfortable. Good that it was near to town centre.

When we got to the room there was urine in the toilet. Water was not very warm in the bath and the shower head would not stay in its holder and it was really cold in the bathroom.
