As soon as we saw the details of the Grafton on the website we looked no further. When we arrived it was everything we had expected. We did book a superior room which we found excellent value for money. The room was very spacious with a settee and large screen T.V which worked well - not always our experience. Plenty... More

Usually when I go on a business trip I use the Holiday Inn chain as I know what I am going to get. However, the Holiday Inn in Harrogate was booked out and I came across this boutique B & B online. My last experience in a B & B in Aberdeen was not good: idiosyncratic, noisy and full of... More

Cannot fault this hotel. (Technically it's a B&B but to us it seemed so much more) Bedroom - spotless, spacious and beautifully decorated. Well stocked refreshment tray, complimentary biscuits and sweets :-) . Lovely bathroom, the biggest fluffiest towels and dressing gowns, and top of the range toiletries. Breakfast - huge choice, including home made muesli and date and walnut... More

The Grafton is Comfortable, welcoming, beautifully clean and fresh. Breakfast delicious. Highly recommend. Not really any need for any other words! Only a 10 min walk to Betty's too. Parking right outside. Comfy bed!!! Staff unobtrusive. Still not reached 200 characters...blah...blah...

Several of us were attending an exhibition down the road and tried to get in the Holiday Inn but at £140 a night this was way beyond our budget. The Grafton seemed a good alternative and about half the price. I arrived late but the building looked very nice and indeed was. There is a bar (no food) in what... More

Very nice B & B, nicely situated, just a short walk to the town centre. Our room was spotlessly clean and well appointed with everything you would expect of a B & B of this quality. The breakfast was of a high standard giving a good choice of cereals, fruit, yogurt, croissants, malt loaf etc, etc, followed by a splendid... More

This will be a brief review as it doesn't need many words to say 'excellent.' We had a large room at the front which was pretty chic in furnishing and decor, and spotlessly clean en-suite. Breakfast was one of the tastiest we've had: good produce in the cooked breakfast, clean presentation and well seasoned (mushrooms especially good.) We liked the... More

We usually stay in small Boutique hotels so this was a leap of faith choosing a B & B. We emailed them beforehand and they seemed to allocate a really amazing Room 10. Service was OK, would be nice if the owners were more welcoming at Check-in & out though! The Grafton is modern, sleek and super clean. Our bed... More
