Well thought out, really everything you could want in bedrooms. Quilt very heavy and resulted in sleepless night. Public area sitting room, seats uncomfortable. Probably 25% too expensive for what we got

Our second time at The Bijou. This time for a weekend conference. Small friendly and comfortable. We arrived and checked in in a bit of a rush; having to dash to get to the function and leaving the room in a bit of a state; someone tidied us up - which was really nice when we got back (even if...

Just arrived back from a 2 night stay in The Bijou. A great place to stay, with little luxury touches to our room. Breakfast was very good, with a variety of choices. Recommend the Italian Breakfast as an alternative to the Traditional English Breakfast. A short stroll away from the Conference Centre and Town Centre, approx 5 minutes.

We had a lovely stay on the 17th and 18th April. I felt the photos and literature made my expectations high and I couldn't help but feel a little let down. Little things really and I don't consider myself a picky or negative person. Examples...on arrival in room the window was open and the radiator was turned off so not... More

Sincere apologies to this guest for the deficiences in their stay. We will address these issues although I would like to point out that the blinds are cleaned very regularly and the towels in the bathroom are definitely not hand towels, we provide 2 bath towels and 2 hand towels. More

Just had two nights here and it suited us perfectly. The comfortable 'coach house' room was bright and spacious we parked right outside our window. Lots of choice at breakfast and freshly cooked. The Hotel is artistically decorated, the owners have a good eye for the unusual modern fittings and decor. Only one gripe, the bathroom mirrors......one fitted so low... More

Arrived for just the one night and stayed in the Coach House which was an older converted building around the back... Friendly owner.... Really nice breakfast... 5 mins walk to Harrogate centre... One small nag though... Bath, no shower and despite having a shower attachment, lifting it above the level of your knee cap, meant the water was freezing cold... More

I stayed at the Bijou with my mother on the 26th March as we had tickets for the theatre. Parking was no problem and our room was stylish and immaculate. The stairs were slightly steep for my Mum who is in her 80's, she is determined though and tackled this with humour. You know these old buildings will have this... More

Stayed at the Bijou last weekend. It was pretty good with a great location in Harrogate. The bedroom was very nice, bed and bedding were very comfortable, bathroom was a very small with a slight damp smell but did the job. Did appreciate the magazines in the bedroom and the honesty bar was a good idea. There is a beautiful... More

A beautifully presented guest house with all the facilities you would expect from a five star residence. Easy 5 minute stroll to the main town. Breakfast was beautifully cooked and very artistic, with nice individual touches like homemade muesli, compote and even banana bread. Good service, attentive but not intrusive. Would definitely stay again as it would also make an... More

Just back from a lovely one night stay. If you ever imagined running a B&B and what you would like to see- I would predict this would tick a few boxes on your extra quirky touches list to please guests. We probably had the smallest room, but everything was considered and the price offered very good value for money. Perfect... More
