Murder mystery weekend very entertaining and staff friendly and accomadating.

We arrived on the 1st of may for a three night break.The hotel,an imposing ivy clad sight greeted us.Inside was a very old traditional style decor.We were happy with our room and the bathroom. breakfast was the usual choice of cereals,toast, croissants,but we ordered a lovely cooked breakfast consisting of back bacon,scrambled or fried egg,sausage,beans,black pudding,and fried bread. Evening meals... More

Hotel as seen better days,bedrooms large but need update,bathroom was fine. The cooked breakfast was a joke. The only item that had not been cooked for hours was the fried egg and to cut a mushroom in half?

Excellent service, would defiantly recommend a stay. We were booked at the Crown but they were overbooked so transferred us to this hotel, what a bonus! The hotel is old but it is very well maintained and displays character not found in a modern hotel. Fantastic location and was only beaten by the friendly helpful staff who were efficient, attentive... More

The Hotel is in an excellent location, on a quiet road but right in the middle of Harrogate. Our room was at the back of the hotel and was very quiet. It was clean but a... More

Just glad we didn't have to spend much time in the room. At first glance the hotel looks very grand, but on closer inspection the place is in serious... More

Just returned from a couple of days at this hotel, I can't find any real problems with the place. Food was excellent (stopped on b&b and evening meal basis), I had booked an executive room but was upgraded to a suite and it was very comfortable, the hotel was no better or worse since we stopped last year. All in... More

Excellent service and value for money, would defiantly recommend a stay. Yes the hotel is old but it is very well maintained and displays character not found in a modern 4* hotel. Location is second to non and was only beaten by the friendly helpful staff who were efficient, attentive and showed proper Yorkshire hospitality. I look forward to going... More
