Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a fantastic stay at this traditional Harrogate b&b, feeling like I was in a mini hotel. The room was compact but boasted a very comfy bed, along with thoughtful touches like tea, coffee, bottled water, and wine glasses on request. The service made me feel like I was in a plush hotel, with a friendly and welcoming staff that even accommodated an early breakfast request on a Sunday and provided valuable food advice for my diet. The location was absolutely brilliant, within walking distance to town, the station, and numerous restaurants and bars, making it unnecessary to use the car. The dining experience was delightful, with perfectly cooked local produce and fabulous homemade marmalade. Overall, a great choice for anyone looking to be close to the lovely shops and eateries of Harrogate.
My stay at the hotel was simply delightful. The rooms were clean, tidy, and beyond comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax. The service was top-notch, with the staff being so friendly and accommodating. The location couldn't have been better for exploring the town. However, the dining experience was a bit lackluster, but the hotel's facilities made up for it.
