About Shears Inn
Halifax has plenty to draw visitors these days, from its restored Piece Hall to a growing scene of pubs and restaurants nearby, and Shears Inn puts guests within easy reach of it all. The hotel occupies a building with genuine historic character, sitting at 1 Paris Gates, yet the rooms inside have been brought up to modern standards without losing that older charm.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks provided, and there's free WiFi throughout for anyone working or just keeping in touch. Guests can eat on site at the restaurant or bar, with breakfast served each morning, and there's a garden for stepping outside when the weather allows. Reception operates around the clock, and a laundry service is on hand for longer stays.
Free on-site parking makes arriving by car straightforward, which is useful given the property's location away from a town centre car park. Beyond the inn itself, guests are close to a golf course, local entertainment, and a good spread of pubs and restaurants, making it a practical base for exploring Halifax and the surrounding West Yorkshire countryside.
