Overnighter at the cheapest hotel on offer in Harrogate. I now know why it was cheap, it is in dire need of some modernisation. It's a lovely old building, probably was quite the place to be in the 1950s or 1960s and its nit had much work done to it since. The carpet next to the bed was worn out, the shower was maybe 1980/90 but worked fine. The furniture looked like something from my childhood! Having said that, it was clean and bed was comfy enough. Not sure I'll be back though, unless it has a few million spent on it in the next few years.

Could be a fantastic hotel, needs a lot of TLC & updating. Sadly the rooms & public areas are tired and neglected. Damp, musky smell hits as you walk through the doors & stays with you everywhere you go. In a competitive town like Harrogate, its needs to do something to keep up with the other hotels. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on that.

Very Grand in it's Day

WOW first impression, must have been the grandest of hotels in its early days, now its looking tired but that doesn't take away it's splendour, we only stayed a couple of nights but would have been happy to stay longer, the room was spacious clean and comfortable, with house keeping daily, very good value for money. added benefit is the bus stops directly outside the hotel worth making use of the buses. Would highly recommend.
