From the moment we arrived my husband, I and our 2 dogs were made most welcome by the staff. I had discussed our requirement for a quiet room with easy access outside for the dogs when making our booking and the Harrogate Suite was just that. The room was well decorated and despite an extremely icy cold weekend, the room was warm with no trace of dog hairs or doggy odour.
We had evening dinner in the bistro where the dogs could be with us (a more formal dining room is available if you don't have dogs, or want to eat meals without dogs around).
We both enjoyed our meals and the complementary amuse-bouche and taster desert were nice touches to the meal. Breakfast was also good. Both well presented with good service.
The hotel offers lovely grounds to wander in, or across the road is a large wood, ideal for dog owners, although the paths are very steep in parts and not suitable for those with restricted walking abilities, push chairs or wheelchairs.
Overall an excellent, relaxing stay.

This a supeb setting and was extremely convenient for the purpose of the trip, but the overall experience was a bit of a disappointment. Dinner appeared to be expensive, so we opted for the nearby Moorcock Inn at Langdale End - it may not appear in the "Good Food Guide" but an absolute must for anyone wanting to experience the ultimate old fashioned traditional Yorkshire pub.

My standard room in the annexe was perfectly adequate, although the radiator in the bathroom didn't work, but the sound proofing was poor - you could hear every cough in the next door room. And when the doors closed.......

Breakfast was a serious disappointment. No kippers, and I had a horrible suspicion that the scrambled eggs were made from egg powder - they were very white in colour. The bacon and sausages were completely tasteless - where could they have got them from? And we had to do a major search to find any marmalade - I think the little containers when we eventually located them were "Golden Shred".......

Having read the other reviews we might just have been unlucky and off season - there appeared to be only one other couple at breakfast, but this was Best Western at its least impressive......

Go through the front door & experience a different world. I have eaten here 3 times this year & each time has been excellent - superb food, elegant atmosphere, great attention to detail & guests. I always doubted people who said they'd had meat that melted in their mouth, but I doubt no more after having eaten roast Beef at GT - it really does! Saturday & Sunday lunch are great value for money, especially for special occasions. Highly recommended.

Thank you to Lynsey, Alan and staff for a fantastic Christmas holiday – hotel set in beautiful countryside just 2 miles from Scarborough. Loved everything about the hotel, in particular, the food and rooms were of a very high standard. For all you dog lovers out there I cannot recommend this hotel enough – the dog was made very welcome and we ate most of our meals in the bistro where she could be with us. I would like to add that the menu in the bistro was exactly the same as in the main restaurant and the standard of service was equally as good. Normally, when accompanied by your dog, you are allocated a ‘dodgy’ room but not here, our room, called fountain, which was in the courtyard, overlooked the countryside, was very spacious and nicely decorated. All staff were very friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble for anyone. All in all a perfect holiday and we will definitely be looking to stay here again. Thank you all.
