Holmfield Arms

"Check-in was very good - professional, friendly and helpful team member. Excellent location alongside a lovely park and easy access to Wakefield City. Found the room of good size and clean - but quite noisy on the evening of arrival - from the corridor and neighbouring rooms - lasted approx. 20 mins, then OK. Just 1 Bath Towel and 1 Hand Towel provided for 2 people - not particularly an issue, but not ideal."
