hotel is well positioned for Harrogate witha fair sized car park the room we had 128 was of a good size and fairly clean but very tired
Bathroom very poor pealing wall paper and wood work pealingand scratched
corridors very shabby
bed room chairs unbelievably un comfortable but bed not bad sheets and bedding good-Tv seen through a sea of mist even though a digital reception
tea and coffe making hidden on a tray in a bottom drawer took us 2 days to find it.and you cant lift the tray out with the items on the tray, cant see the reason for hidding it away
Recepion good restaurant and food very good private party of 50 on second night was excellent.
Heating v hot but easily turned off in room noisy at night with 3 disco on opposite side of street 100m away so dont open your windows.
the whole place needs a massive refurbishment but i dont expect it will get one
my expectations where not shattered but it could be improved in most areas
Staff where good and very plentiful and attentive.
Hotel very central for the shops and the conference centre

after reading the reviews I was a liittle nervous on taking this break, I need not have worried I do not know how people can make some of those remarks unless they are use to staying in the Ritz. Yes the hotel is old and some cosmetic redecoration is needed but the cleanliness, the rooms , staff and food make up for all this. Would not hesitate in returning.

we have stayed at this hotel quite a few times and have always been pleased about our stay but this time the breakfast has let the hotel down the metal trays with lids are a pain as you have to keep moving them on and off and when there is a queue of people there getting past from one to another the food was luke warm bacon and sausage were tasteless and staff were slow to replace food and at the price of b and b this should have been better everything else in hotel was great.

Excellent receptionist. All the staff were pleasant and efficient. Food was extremely good but the breakfast was a little cool because of being under buffet lamps. Extremely clean throughout the hotel.Parking was wonderful as the bays are right in front of the hotel. We will certainly be going to the Yorkshire again as we were very impressed with the hotel and with Harrogate.
For old world charm you couldn't find a better hotel
