The manner of reception staff at check in and throughout my stay was very good, professional and friendly. There is loads of good, easy parking at the hotel. Admittedly, some of the furnishings are a bit dated, everywhere is clean and well equipped. The bedroom and bathroom were both large and comfortable. The bedding and towels were in good condition and decent quality. There was a well stocked hospitality tray. There was always plenty of hot water with good pressure It was very quiet both inside and outside. It is a short walk from Harrogate town centre and there is a but stop at the entrance if you want to venture further afield. I did not use the bar or restaurant, so cannot comment other than to say the prices looked reasonable

Staff were very good and cleaner excellent, but hotel is very tired and in need of decorating even a lick of paint would be an improvement.

8/10 Very good

The check in team were very friendly. The hotel is a short walk into town. Car park is large and plenty of spaces if you get there early enough. The hotel does need smartening up. The bath room was a little grubby with mould in the shower. Towels also grubby on both days. We did speak to reception but a towel change gave us more dirty towels. No usb sockets so bring your own charger. Breakfast decent but staff a little too attentive. There was a hot buffet but you could not help yourself. Decent selection of items. Will use again due to price, parking and decent quality of sleep.
