First impressions were not the same as the picture on the web which was taken from the gradens. The frontage is a little dowdy and the reception area could do with modernisation. Similarly, the general state of decoration would be worth some investment. However, the room was comfortable and clean and reasonably roomy and there was free WiFi. Everyone at... More

A most enjoyable stay in lovely surroundings and company, staff extremely helpful and attentive, a lovely choice of food particularly breakfast essential for a full days play on the croquet lawns. Very comfortable, clean and quiet room, well worth the travelling. More

We spent last Friday and Saturday night at the Ripon Spa Hotel - it was exactly what we wanted! The staff were very welcoming and helpful, the bedroom was clean and very comfortable (a four-poster bed at no extra charge!) and the dinner on Friday evening was excellent! (We ate out in Ripon on the Saturday - also excellent -... More

We stayed at the hotel for the Bank holiday Although it says that the spa pool is next door to the hotel, we expected it to be part of the hotel complex. In fact 'Spa-Hotel' is a complete misnomer. The pool is the public baths a few minutes walk away from the hotel. The hotel has an arrangement that hotel... More

I am so sorry you were disappointed. Our name the Ripon Spa Hotel dates back to 1906 and “spa” refers to the spa waters that were taken in the city at that time. We are very proud of our heritage and are aware that today “spa” usually implies leisure & treatments so are very careful not to market ourselves as... More

Very well fed during my stay - large choice of cooked food for breakfast and plenty of choice of appealing food for dinner. Attentive staff and a large guest lounge. Rooms well heated and... More

Slightly aging accomodation in a traditional style (in a nice not unpleasant way). Some of the rooms have been refurbished and have new king sized beds which we were pleased to have as we are both tall.Our friends had a traditional room and were very comfortable in their room which had an enormous bathroom. The service was very efficient and... More
