I was recommended this hotel on a recent business trip to Harrogate and couldn't find any decent accommodation there. It's only 5 mins outside Harrogate in, what looks like a movie-set village, Ripley - and is your postcard-perfect village inn. My room was in the Keepers Lodge and was a good size, far bigger than my usual hotel rooms, the... more

Stayed June 3/4 2006 with family - food at dinner in the restaurant was simply wonderful and the wines were reasonable too, although the coffee was poor - espresso has no crema and the regular coffee was very thin. Breakfast was adequate but not great. But our room in the annex was very ordinary - toilet was difficult to flush,... more

We had booked ourselves in to the Boar's Head at the end of our UK holiday expecting it to be something special, a bit of a splurge to end off our holiday in pampered comfort. Although it was perfectly adequate, we couldn't understand what others found outstanding in this hotel, and we couldn't understand why it was more expensive than... more

A very relaxing stay with a lovely ambiance. The setting and surrounding village are fabulous. The breakfast was v.good and it was a pleasure to be served by well trained and willing staff! The restaurant was also top class and the food delicious. An all round gem of a hotel and we're glad we found it. I would and have... more

What a waste of money. Booked this place for a special couple of days. We were directed to the first room across the road from the hotel, on the first floor of an annex. As rooms go it was ok, apart from the fact that the shower didn't work, so we packed our bags and moved to the room next... more

Our daughter and son in law have just been married at Ripley Castle. The Boar's Head Hotel is just next door and it was convenient to stay there. I have to say that we were delighted with every aspect of it and had a wonderful stayover. The bedrooms are very spacious and clean, very good breakfast with lots of choice.... more

What a place!!!!! Stayed for Valentines weekend with hubby and it was worth every single penny! Lovely room..Yellow Room, princess coronet over bed, antique furniture, lovely bathroom and little piggy shaped bath oils!! But the best moment was when my husband answered the door as we were getting ready for dinner and there was a uniformed young man holding out... more

This is a really lovely hotel with many refreshing and thoughtful touches, delicious home made biscuits with the tea/coffee making facilites and even a chocolate pig on the pillow at bedtime! Cannot recommend this hotel enough, the staff are lovely- always friendly and the rooms are delightful. The food is also fabulous in both the restaurant and the bistro, which... more

Beautiful building in lovely village and castle just a hundred yards away. Lovely rooms, large and comfortable with enormous beds and a wooden boat to sail on your bath. Very friendly and helpful staff and lots of them. Wonderful food, both in the main restaurant and in the bar, with great breakfasts. Somewhere to spoil yourself for a great weekend... more
