Cairns is a large traditional hotel offering areasonable value for money stay. It is quite dated and needing some refurbishment in some places but the rooms are pretty good and the club rooms are worth the extra money. Service is always with a smile and reception is first class TV reception in room was hopeless but didn't stay in there... More

Our recent 4th stay at The Cairn was just as good as the previous 3. The staff were friendly and a number were there on previous visits which is often a good sign of a well managed facility. From start to finish we were made to feel welcome and important. The carvery evening meals were excellent and plentiful and we... More

Wonderful old hotel, dated in the rooms but really clean. Great breakfast. Amazing areas downstairs with wonderful curtains in the foyer etc. If you want somewhere reasonable to stay which is central to lovely Harrogate then it's a great place. If you are looking for luxury then pay loads more and go across the road to Barcelo. More

Just back from our second stay at the Cairn, for the bike club's annual dinner dance, and again we've had a fantastic time. The staff are lovely - a friendly, down-to-earth bunch of people who go out of their way to help. The food's excellent too, especially the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet!:) Sure, the communal areas could do with some TLC... More

Well, we were back at the Cairn Hotel for our annual dinner/dance, with 80 of us staying on Friday night and our numbers swelling to 150 for the Saturday night dinner/dance and stop over.

My partner, myself, my best friend and her husband stayed at the Cairn hotel for two nights, having booked the rooms as other hotels we had stayed in were full. What a shame we did. Although the hotel must have been spectacular when it was built, it doesn't appear to have had a lick of paint or new carpets since... More

Anyway happy with the service and it was a lovely place to... More
