This is a great place to stay. We used this hotel as our base as we backpacked across Europe. My wife especially enjoyed making our own breakfast in the fully stocked kitchen. Peter was a great host with lots of tips that made our travels even more enjoyable. The Swinton Train Station is a short walk from the hotel. Everything was great!

Peter was a wondeful host, even getting me a fresh towel late at night when I was coming home late from a festival. The room was a shared dormitory with bedding done daily and the toilet facilities were kept clean. The rooms are above a small pub which gets a little lively on the weekend but you get a 10% discount on the already cheap drinks. Would stay again happily.

although it looks a little shabby on tbe outside the room was clean and warm the owner Peter really went the extra mile to be accomodating, giving recommendations for local spots to eat its above a karaoke bar so it was a little loud but not obnoxiously so, and Peter did offer to move me to a different room if the noise too much overall a very good value for money place to stay, especially with the complementary breakfast

Oddfellows lives up to its name 100% Exteriorly the building scares you; peeling paintwork, broken wooden fences, dropping facias, even a broken half hanging To Let sign as cherry on top! But once you meet the proprietor, and gets inside, I was enlightened! In brief, I can say many hotels, even 6 * hotels in South East Asia, I've stayed in, I've sworn under my breath that the rooms were designed more for aesthetics then for living in; one pet hate of mine especially Travelodge is NO power socket plugs by bedside; how to chat on phone whilst in bed? They expect you to get out of bed, trot over to other side of room to plug your phone in, get back into bed, then Tttrrriiinng, a new message notification comes in! It's annoying! But in Oddfellows, the room is obviously less luxurious as it's a hostel BUT it's damn practical, there's a barrel of power sockets beneath the bedside cabinet, a practical bedside lamp that has a simple switch, a nice size wardrobe with LOTs of hangers not FIVE like most boutique hotels, a tiny cute fridge, a quick dispenser kettle not typical hotel kettles with cords that's always not long enough to reach the limited power plugs and a washbasin with soap dispenser and towels, great bed with clean sheets etc Out my room, round the corner, 5 metres walk is the absolutely clean large shower and toilet you can swing several cats around, no probs. Breakfast is unique too, you cook it! Overall; thumbs up 👍 have booked another stay for later this month

Does the Job

Does the job, Peter and all the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The room is basic but is equiped with wardrobes, sinks and a comfortable double bed. The smart tv was a nice addition - not many hotels at this price range would offer this facility. Breakfast is do it yourself but the spread was good.
