ザ フレンチゲート レストラン & ホテル(The Frenchgate Restaurant & Hotel)

This little hotel is charming and well suited to the village of Richmond. A hearty English or American breakfast is served each morning, along with smaller options. The food and happy service is excellent. A lovely garden in the back filled with flowers and bird calls each evening tops off a day wandering castle and abbey ruins or exploring the nearby market square. Cocktails in the garden anyone? David Todd, Proprietor, is the man that makes this hotel really stand out. He is funny, kind and generous with his knowledge of the village and his excellent martinis! It is a small property, but abundant with personal comforts. I highly recommend Frenchgate!

Lovely hotel with original features. Luxury features throughout. Mattress the best I have slept on in a hotel. Staff were amazing. David the owner was so funny and knowledgeable. Giving us recommendations for places to eat and see. Felt like we were family visiting. Great stay. Would recommend

Lovely hotel, comfortable, warm, great staff , great breakfast and perfect pillows . Would definitely book again, excellent value for money and good location. Staff were helpful and welcoming, didn't want to leave

Absolutely loved it. Lovely central location, very easy to find, car park, wonderful garden walk from parking area to hotel, lovely room, wonderful breakfast and very friendly management. Will definitely be back.

Just got home after a weekend in Richmond. Our choice of the Frenchgate hotel was a good one. The rooms were really clean and housekeeping was good. Breakfast was comprehensive with a good choice of cereals and hot dishes. Nothing was too much trouble for David and his team. We would definitely recommend staying there and would return in a heartbeat if we find ourselves in North Yorkshire again.

We stayed for 1 night in Room 8 Tokyo and found the hotel to be excellent. Liked the ceiling fan over the bed as we stayed during a heatwave and the mood lighting in the bathroom was a nice touch. Everything was clean and the staff very welcoming and friendly. Very good choice for breakfast. The small car park at the back was very useful as parking in Richmond can be a problem but we were able to check in early and leave the car there.

Stayed for 2 nights in room 6. Room was a good size with a very large and comfortable bed. The hotel is situated near the centre and has good parking. The breakfast is superb with good quality and options and very well presented. We paid £157 per night which feels overly expensive even given current costs. David the owner is very friendly, talkative and quite a character. The big test is would we stay again and that would be a yes. Overall a good hotel.

Very convenient for the town. Good breakfast but they don't do lunch or evening meals anymore.

I stayed at the The Frenchgate Restaurant & Hotel for four night’s the staff were very helpful and friendly the room was very comfortable and clean and the breakfast was great!
