YHA Ilam Hall arvostelua

The landscape on arrival is breathtaking. checking in is easy and welcoming. the options of walks hikes or relax are as you choose. I felt comfortable and cared for as well as well informed of the area. A definite must for anyone solo or a team x

It has a beautiful scenery and worth the price you pay.

Really enjoyed our stay here, room was clean and other guests in our room were quiet and polite. Staff were all lovely. The area was really nice.

Alton Towers Attended with my son in an en suite room, for a trip to nearby Alton Towers. It is basic, but clean and perfect for our requirements. Wifi nit very good if this is required.

Lovely stay Wonderful location, friendly and helpful staff, good facilities &very clean.

Beautiful location, building and great staff Fantastic value for money, very clean, building is old so expect condensation on windows and the like. If we had been organised would have taken a bag of microwave dinners and milk, communal kitchen has everything you could need. Only thing I missed was a kettle in room for cups of tea. Food from restaurant: breakfast very good with everything hot and tasty and as much as you like. Evening meal good but again my preference I would have liked hot water and teas and coffees left out like breakfast.

Great first time at YHA & will stay again My sister and I stayed here whilst visiting a alton Towers and we had a brilliant stay. It was our first time in a YHA, the house was beautiful and in such a great location, very rural and pretty. All of the team were very helpful and welcoming. We made use of the nice lounge areas, bar and cafe for dinner and breakfast. We both felt the hostel was excellent value and we are planning lots more trips at YHA venues with our families.

overall this was a good stay, too short really as we were using it for Alton Towers, so didn't benefit from all it had to offer. decent small family room (large enough for a big family really) ensuite, a little cold some people thought, I didn't. Breakfast wasn't fab or cheap the previous night we stayed at a travel lodge with a far better breakfast offering. but lovely old building, nice grounds, and friendly staff, so all in all, it was fine, and I wished we were there longer and done more in the local area.

Very friendly people, and gorgeous sights

Absolutely 5 stars. Cannot praise the team enough. Amazing venue, stunning views, excellent facilities. The wonderful Manager Lyndsey could not do enough for us to make sure we enjoyed our stay. Excellent organisation of our stay. Great communication to help us get the most out of our time. Restaurant, food, classroom, games room, laundry room and drinking water facility, the list goes on and on as everything you need is available. Parking just round the corner at the National trust care park. Walking distance to Dovedale and the stepping stones. Short drive to Matlock and Carington water. Ashbourne is 15 minuets away. Rooms were spotless clean. The manager and kitchen staff were absolutely exceptional. Lovely, interesting, friendly, passionate and genuinely professional staff. We were supplied with we needed for a comfortable stay. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it. The stay was very organised. Fun, fun and fun waiting for you if you decide to book here. The Hostel offered exceptionally good value for money. We went as a group of 22 and we could not recommend it highly enough.

This was our first family stay at a youth hostel with our 2 children aged 5 and 2. As our 3 year old has complex needs it was a bit of a gamble but we managed to source her an accessible room in the courtyard with one parent, and the other parent and child stayed in the house (next time we would love to book the 2 accessible rooms side by side so we can stay closer together as a family unit). The AMAZING thing about this hostel Is that as it is on national trust land they have installed a changing places toilet next to the accessible rooms. For those who require these facilities this makes this YHA one of a kind and truly accessible and usable by people with complex needs and their carers. We were able to access the dining room and lounge and have lovely walks in the grounds as a family. We loved it and will definitely aim to return!

I have been visiting Ilam hall for many years. Everything about this place is excellent. The views, the rooms, the food and the staff. Thanks again especially to Kelly the manager who is always lovely and welcoming. Will see you next year!!!

Very friendly staff in a great old building. I have visited many YHs and this is one of the best. Slight con was that are few toilets in a big building!

Negatives - findings the place! There needs to be better signage and there is nil lightning from car park to the builidng. Its very very dark arriving. And trying to find the place and the care park. Positives- everything else! Car park and building felt safe, and it's a beautiful location and building. Inside felt like every other yha, which is a bit of a shame but practical and functional. Clean. It was soooo warm! Which was a pleasant suprise. But also you could control this yourself once in the room. I chose a private room shared bathrooms. Which again. Functional but clean and fine. Staff were lovely! Facilities good and i really wish i could have stayed for breakfast looked great. Id love to come back here with more time and see the national trust site, village and area. The walking routes and info at reception are fabulous. The coffee is great. Will be back !
