“EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

people found this review helpful

Just spent a lovely weekend at this hotel and what a bargain it turned out to be.

The location was brilliant, it is in the very centre of Harrogate, just across the way from Bettys Tearoom, 2 minutes from the Conference Centre, Turkish Baths and bus/train station. When we arrived Friday night we weren't able to get in the free car park as it was full, but you could park for free on the road until 8am in the morning and then our car went in a nearby multi storey car park for 24 hs for £6. We didn't need the car again until we were leaving as we were in the centre for shopping, restaurants etc which was ideal.

On arrival the reception staff were very welcoming and we seemed to have been given a free upgrade to a suite which was much appreciated. The room was more than acceptable. We had a minor issue with a faulty lamp which was dealt with swiftly and in a friendly manner. The hotel has stairs or 2 lifts although I have to say that one of the lifts is probably the smallest I have ever seen.... supposed to take upto 6 people but realistically only 3 very intimate people could squash in there!

Our deal included breakfast and we were greeted in a very welcoming manner by the restaurant staff, offered a pot of tea or coffee and invited to help oursleves to a range of hot cooked foods or various cold fruits and cereal. The food was decent and plentiful with friendly but not obtrusive staff.

All in all the hotel was excellent value for money and we would certainly stay there again.

“Great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012

I stayed in a single room which was small but cosy. The bedroom had everything in it that you need but was small. The bathroom was quite large with heated towel rail and a shower over the bath. I had a good view from the bedroom window with a nice chair to sit on. The only problem was the bed it was very lumpy and my back was bad the next day.

The staff on reception were very friendly and helpful. I did get parked up outside the hotel you just have to go early.

I know that some people have mentioned the hotel needs updating and yes it is worn around the edges in places but my room was nicely decorated with curtains to match and the staff were lovely.

You need to remember that this is a 3 star hotel and is a work in progress. I am sure that it will be updated to a very good standard in time.

I can't comment on the food as I did not eat in the hotel.

Room Tip: If you are travelling alone I stayed in room 317

“Geat location and a warm welcome.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

Have stayed in the Yorshire Hotel on a number of occasions. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. Yes some of the rooms do need updating but most are very spacious with large comfortable beds. The rooms are warm and there is always hot water even when fully booked. Lovely views of the immaculately kept flower beds at the front of the hotel and across from the famous Betty's tea rooms. This hotel is in one of the best locations for bars and restaurants. You can't beat the Yorkshire Hotel for value for money so wil keep coming back. One slight minus, breakfast could have been hotter.

“an enjoyable stay at the yorkshire hotel.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

What a pleasant and wonderful hotel to stay right in the town, close to all amenities. Warm and friendly, nothing too much trouble, our room was spacious, clean, warm and good tea and coffee facilities. Shower lovely and hot, clean towels and sheets every day. Breakfast tasty, hot and service spot on. After a lovely weekend with my family in Feb, despite the heavy snowfall, i would definately recommend and rate this hotel as very good value for money. Would return time and time again, thankyou to all the staff at The Yorkshire Hotel, a wonderful time enjoyed by us all. Mrs Carol Thomas.

Room Tip: Room 208 great for views and pleny of space

“Well earned break after family bereavement”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

We have just spent 2 nights, 3 days at the Yorkshire Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
From our arrival at the reception desk and during our stay all of the staff were very friendly, helpful and professional. Food and service was excellent with plenty of variety.
Room was very clean and large but needs updating.
Good location in Harrogate and to the Yorkshire Dales.
We will certainly be revisiting soon.
