Just back from a great holiday weekend staying here with friends.Kirkby Lonsdale was a quaint and pretty Yorkshire town and Plato's the ideal place to stay if you like a boutique style property.Comfy rooms, great staff that couldn't do enough to please, cosy bar that was always busy with loads of atmosphere where you could have a great selection of...

Couldn't recommend this place highly enough. Fantastic atmosphere at all times of the day, great food, very friendly staff who actually seem to enjoy working there (Alex and David couldn't be more helpful), lovely rooms and comfortable, stylish decor throughout. We loved the fact that you could get tapas/platters all day; it just seems the perfect place to really chill... More

We have eaten here a few times, and even taken the parents for a day out and a bite to eat here. The tapas menu is fab, enough choice, very tasty and reasonably priced - £30 for lunch for 2 including a bottle of house white - absolutely no complaints. Service is great, even though its been busy every time... More

Stayed for 1 night in Room 2 (John Craston) which was compact but very comfortable. Refreshments provided on arrival which was unexpected but very welcome. Ate in restaurant which was excellent. Breakfast was marvellous too. If staying more than 1 night I would opt for a larger room. Hotels with parking in KL are very scarce but there are pay... More

We were en route to Manchester from Scotland and were recommended by a stranger in Carlyle to stay in Kirby Lonsdale overnight. We arrived in this adorable quaint town, and walked into Plato as it was appealing from the roadside. We were greeted by the friendliest staff, and fortunately they had a room. We loved it there so much that... More

We called in for a late lunch a few weeks back and it was really welcoming. The decor is very nice and the food was great. Very good service as well. It wasn't cheap but you would not expect it to be for the quality and location. Will be staying in the hotel soon. More

Our second stay at "PLATO'S" how to get it right, another warm welcome from the ever friendly staff who, despite a crowded bar on bonfire night and an extremely boisterous 65th birthday party in the restaurant, still managed to look after the four of us - mum,dad, daughter, son in law and 12 week old grandson - for an excellent...

Was recommended the place by a guy at work, and wasn't dissapointed. The service is some of the best I've experienced. The room was lovely, very tastfully decorated, not overly massive though, but that didn't matter. Was really impressed with the morning delivery of fresh milk! We ate in the restaurant, which is primeraly tapas, which was very nice and... More

Love Kirby Lonsdale and thought we would try Plato's stayed over on Friday night. The moment we got there we recieved a warm welcome and showed to our delightful room which was spottlessly clean and had everything we needed for our overnight stay, the en suite was superb and again immaculate. We decided to eat in the restaurant which we... More
