I had an amazing stay at this hotel, located right in the center of Harrogate. The rooms were clean and comfortable with fantastic views over the park. The service was top-notch, especially thanks to the friendly staff like Charlie who went above and beyond to make our stay delightful. The dining experience was satisfying with freshly cooked food, although there was a slight delay with the gluten-free toast. The location is unbeatable, close to all the good restaurants in town. However, the price could be a bit high for what is offered, but the value is still there.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were a bit of a letdown with very little view and a small bedroom, but the outside seating areas were a nice touch. The service was a hit or miss, with some friendly staff members like Charlie the waiter, but others seemed uninterested in helping. The location was central, which was great for exploring the town, but the noise from the adjacent pub was bothersome. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with good food but some delays in service. The facilities were decent overall.

The hotel offers good rooms with nice facilities but lacks hanging space. The Fat Badger in the evening had a great atmosphere. The service was a mix of friendly and engaging staff like Charlie, contrasted with unhelpful responses directing complaints to the general manager. The location is central in Harrogate, ideal for exploring dining options. The dining experience was mainly positive with top-quality food but had some lapses in service like slow replenishments.

The hotel is centrally located in the beautiful town, providing access to many good restaurants within walking distance. The rooms, while in good condition, were upgraded due to a strange-smelling bathroom, but they feature incredible bathrooms. The service, especially from a waiter named Charlie, was exceptional with friendly and engaging staff. However, there were issues with reception and complaints handling. The dining experience offered full dishes, but there were delays with gluten-free toast. The location receives a high rating and is described as lovely, despite some issues near the 'station'. Wi-Fi and parking are important inclusions to consider.

The hotel has its ups and downs. On the positive side, it's conveniently located in the center of Harrogate, close to all the attractions. The rooms, however, have a tatty view of the rear of the leisure facilities and are a bit dated, with twin beds. The service, on the other hand, was a mixed bag with some friendly and engaging staff, even though complaints seemed to lead to nowhere. Dining was good with top-quality food, especially the beef dishes. Overall, the hotel offers a pleasant stay but could use some improvements.

I am thrilled to say my stay at the hotel was just fantastic! The location is prime, right in the heart of Harrogate and close to so many great restaurants. The rooms were clean and comfy, plus the staff was incredibly friendly. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited breakfast options. On the bright side, the atmosphere at the Fat Badger in the evening was fantastic. The hotel provides excellent services with extremely polite and helpful staff. You might encounter a bit of a runaround when seeking assistance, but overall, the service was top-notch.

I’ll share my experience at this hotel - overall, a lovely stay with some highlights and a few downsides. The location is great, right in the heart of Harrogate, the staff are super friendly, especially Charlie who was a delight, but there were some service hiccups like being shifted around when trying to raise concerns. Dining had its moments with some tasty options but also cold poached eggs. Rooms were cozy and clean, though lacking internal bathrooms and a bit limited on wardrobe space. Overall, a decent value for money with some room for improvement.
