Hotel was lovely and clean, staff were excellent. Parking was a bit of a challenge and needs to be booked in advance. Hotel only has a few spaces so we couldn’t stay in the car park for the entire stay and had to wait for street parking to become free. Restaurant was amazing but very popular so at night there was noise on the street as people left. But neither parking or popular restaurant would put me off staying again.

Staff were very accommodating and friendly. Room was easily accessible and modern. Room was well furnished and kitchenette was a bonus. Hotel Parking was straightforward and our room overlooked. There are some stairs to negotiate which was unfortunate as the lift was out of order on our arrival. Hotel as central to town as one could wish

Parking was difficult, I needed EV charging so ended up parking at the Crowne plaza. The car park was too small and if you hadn’t booked you couldn’t park. Very basic bit clean. The breakfast was lovely

It's a great venue for the Convention centre and the centre of Harrogate. Staff are lovely and very helpful. However, the room was quite tired and the the room cleanliness wasn't the best I've ever seen.

Very tired room in need of update. Desk area dirty under the glass. No archatrive on the door from the corridor which is not the best first impression. Felt more like a "contractor" room than what is supposed to be a quality hotel.

I have mixed feelings about the hotel. The Orchid Restaurant was excellent but our room was disappointing. Described as a ‘superior room’, the interior was fine but it was on the ground floor and overlooked the car park. It was not possible to open the blinds without being overlooked when people were in the car park. The electrical car charger flashed all night although, to be fair, the hotel staff switched off the charger after we mentioned it. The staff were pleasant and room was clean. The hotel is central. We’d stay there again if we had a better room.

Everything about the stay regards service by lovely friendly attentive staff, amazing food in the Orchid Restaurant on our evening meal, and great breakfasts with great porridge oats, pancakes, and the best poached eggs ever! Our only negative part of the review is down to the relatively plain room we were given which didn’t really reflect the images online for the room type we booked. However, we would stay again for the amazing service from all of the staff.

When we arrived we did not have the car parking which we booked. Then we didn’t get the room we booked. We booked in 2nd floor and I know this because we booked a larger bed and was told the lift didn’t go to that floor and we had a short flight of stairs. We ended up in a room at the back on the ground floor. Outside the window was no view except the exhaust pipes presumably from the kitchen extract system. With the window open which I like, we had cooking smells. Apart from that the noise kept us awake until well after midnight and beyond. The receptionist kept saying we had booked through a 3rd party (Expedia) and they didn’t message me with all the details about the toom and parking , then who did!? They treated us like 2nd class Citizens because we booked through a 3rd party which was repeated all the time. If they didn’t want bookings through Expedia then why do it. We were told we would have to leave the car park by the next day and to park kn the road. Luckily we found a space. However the following morning when we checked out they wanted to charge us car parking. I refused. The pillows were very very heavy and very hard. A bit disappointing stay

We did find the first nights mattress to be uncomfortable but we mentioned it to reception and they immediately remedied it. We had two meals in the hotel restaurant and they were excellent with service to match. They provided information before we arrived and promptly accommodated our needs. If we go to Harrogate again we will certainly stay at this hotel again.
