"Our second visit here. Excellent central location, room, size, Parking, food, and staff. this time, we got put in the annex next door to the hotel,and the rooms were spacious and the beds very comfortable.

"A fabulous stay. The delicious cookies on arrival were a lovely surprise and our room was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for our one night stay including shampoo, conditioner and shower gel! The spa was beautiful and so relaxing and the breakfast was great value for the price. Great location with easy walking distance to the beautiful town of Harrogate. Bar staff were very chatty and attentive but we found the reception staff not that friendly and also breakfast staff failed to get our hot drinks on arrival. Would be useful to have spa times and a spa menu with massages etc in the room. Overall a lovely relaxing stay! Would definitely return."
