Family Friendly HotelSummary of reviews related to the 'Family' categoryIbis Styles Barnsley seems to be a mixed bag when it comes to offering a family-friendly experience. For families visiting nearby attractions like Cannon Hall Farm or attending events such as weddings and family parties, the hotel's location is positively noted. The staff receives commendation for being very accommodating with children and the hotel welcomes pets, including dogs, making it a convenient option for families traveling with their furry friends.
Family rooms are frequently mentioned with varying opinions. Some guests found them spacious, clean and comfortable, even with two toddlers or more. Others, however, noted that the rooms could be congested and lacked adequate space for hanging clothes. Issues such as the room not being very clean and being too small for a family were also mentioned. Additionally, amenities like toiletries and towels were sometimes insufficient for the family size.
Noise was a recurring issue with reports of rowdy crowds and unsupervised children running and screaming, which affected the overall family atmosphere. Guests mentioned the noise coming from above and during late-night hours, detracting from the experience. On a quieter note, some families appreciated the tranquility when it was present.
In summary, while Ibis Styles Barnsley offers a practical and functional stay with commendable child and pet-friendly policies, it faces challenges with room size, cleanliness and noise levels. It remains an ideal choice for families visiting Barnsley, especially for those needing a convenient location and pet accommodations, but it may not meet all expectations for a tranquil and spacious family retreat.
