Local Hotel In Environmental Health Probe

Calderdale Council’s Environmental Health department are understood to be investigating Moyles hotel and restaurant in Hebden Bridge, with regard to issues of hygiene and health & safety.

Moyles has been a very popular local hotel since it opened following extensive refurbishment, and the restaurant gained a solid reputation for fine dining with the arrival of chef Nick Wilson, who trained with the AA Rosette and Michelin award winning Jean-Christophe Novelli. However, the sudden departure of head chef Nick Wilson along with experienced general manager Martin Carpenter, coincides with the discovery that the hotel is currently under investigation by Environmental Health officers.

A source close to Moyles said: “The standard of the food at Moyles restaurant has definitely dropped quite considerably of late, I haven’t heard anyone mention food hygiene problems.”

Owner of the hotel Simon Moyles, was unavailable for comment.
