The Alma Inn - A luxurious 150-year-old hotel with Italian dining, free parking, and family-friendly rooms

Set in a 150-year-old building, The Alma Inn offers seven en-suite guest rooms, including three doubles with king-size beds, one twin with single beds, and three family rooms-one featuring a cabin-style single bed. Each room includes a private bathroom with a shower, free toiletries, a hairdryer, a flat-screen TV, and carpeted flooring. Fresco's Italian restaurant and Fresco's Pizzeria serve British, pizza, and seafood dishes made with local produce. The hotel features a garden, terrace, and two bars with low and high-level seating for drinkers. Guests can explore the Calderdale Way, offering miles of footpaths across West Yorkshire countryside. Leeds Bradford International Airport is 40 km away, and free Wi-Fi and parking are available.

Pros

The Alma Inn provides pet-friendly accommodations, welcoming dogs throughout the property.

Fresco's Pizzeria and Italian restaurant serve locally sourced dishes, with breakfast available daily.

The hotel's garden, terrace, and outdoor seating offer scenic views of the Ryburn Valley.

Family rooms include unique features like cabin-style beds and futons.

Cons

The nearest airport, Leeds Bradford International, is 40 km away.

Some rooms feature shared bathrooms, which may not suit all guests.

“This inn strikes me as a place where the food excels-breakfast is generous, and the restaurant itself is a bustling draw, even given its somewhat secluded setting; rooms offer comfort and sometimes stunning valley views, especially from the terrace. Ultimately, it's the friendly and helpful staff that completes the experience.”
