If you are looking for somewhere to stay in Harrogate, which itself is one of my favourite places then there is nowhere better than the Swan. It's near enough to the centre and the whole experience is fantastic - I could not rate the rooms and staff highly enough. It isn't a cheap hotel, but you can see where the... more

I was on a tour of England and this was one of our stops. I had read some not so good reviews of this hotel but I found them not to be so. The food was warm, served quickly and the selection was excellent. Yes. the rooms were warm at night, but we turned off the heat register and opened... more

I booked a surprise weekend in Harrogate for me and my partner to celebrate his 40th birthday. We really needed a relaxing break. Forget it here!! We had specifically requested a 'quiet room with a view' and received a tiny room with a horrible view across a roof and a brick wall and they put us right above a wedding... more

We stayed here with a large group (about 30 of us!). Reception (and other) staff were friendly and efficient and got us all checked in pretty quick. Our room was lovely - No135- large, clean and comfortable. Modern style but with a bit of character. Bathroom was lovely too, with a great shower. Only slight downside to the room was... more

Called in for a drink in the bar here after a meal elsewhere in town. Its an attractive building from the outside, and features a large illuminated sign advertising a 'Cocktail Lounge' . Great, we thought, lets treat ourselves to a nice Martini, perhaps with someone in the background on a piano.... Once inside however, the bartender seemed confused by... more

We got married in May at Harrogate Registry Office and we had our wedding reception at this hotel. Im so glad we did. Sally the wedding coordinator cant do enough for you. Nothing is a problem for her. We only had a very small wedding party but the service we received was excellent . We went to have a look... more

I chose this hotel as I had always been impressed with Macdonald Hotels in the past. I was not disappointed. The pictures online really don't do the hotel justice. It is just lovely, and is only a short walk from the centre of Harrogate. The breakfast room in particular is very impressive. The food was excellent and the staff were... more

We stayed for one night, having booked without reading any of the Trip advisor reviews. Once i had read the reviews I was worried we would be staying at Fawlty Towers, so I called the hotel and expressed my concern regarding rooms and safety, and was assured that all the rooms had been refurbished in 2007, and that they were... more

We stayed here during the last weekend in August 09 as we were attending a wedding at Rudding Park Hotel. I urge you to spend the extra and stay there as it was lovely - i wish we had. We booked for two nights. On first arrival the hotel looked great, reception staff welcoming. We dropped our bags off in... more
