DoubleTree by Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Staff all lovely and happy to help. We did have housekeeping knock on at 8am asking if the room was going to be empty on the checkout day. Give us some time to wake up properly please! Spa treatment was lovely, extremely busy though (nowhere to keep towels), we went from about 3pm-6pm on Sunday and it was already busy before they let families in at 4:30/5pm. At that point, it was not relaxing at all. Breakfast was nice, except the hash browns felt like they’d been left out since breakfast service started. I’m complaining about quite a bit but we did really enjoy the stay."
