We booked this'hotel' on a very busy weekend in Harrogate so we had limited choice, however took a punt based on the description of a country house hotel in the centre of town and a locally sourced breakfast included. . We arrived to an empty hotel where builders answered the door and a sign on the reception desk stating that... More

We stayed at the Ruskin for one night and that was enough. We found the hotel to be very tired and run down much in need of refurbishment. No lift and lots of stairs. No bar and apart from the lady owner we never saw any other staff. The high point of our stay was meeting the resident dog. What... More

Digi box on top of tele was running through a... More

My husband and I stayed in the Ruskin 'hotel' last night. It was absolutely disgusting. It claims to be a 4* and is not even as good as a 2* We drove a long way to reach the hotel and there was no one there on our arrival and we couldn't get in for over half an hour. We finally... More

Don't even think about it. My wife and I planned a special couple of days in Harrogate. Not so. Great town but the hotel is a shabby, dirty and unstaffed B&B. Met with an unanswered intercom, then no reply to the switched off phone, we were let in after 20 minutes by a tenant in pyjamas. There was no staff... More

We stayed in the Ruskin Hotel mid October. On first impressions it is more like a private house or bed and breakfast than a hotel - there are just a few rooms. There is a small amount of parking in the grounds - if this is full then you will need to park in the road. Other reviewers mentioned that... More
