Guest Houses in North Yorkshire

"I booked a single room at the Knaresborough Inn for a very reasonable price and so wasn't expecting much from the stay. The car parking was good, there was even someone blowing the leaves and stones from the drive in the morning. Staff were very friendly and the room was well presented and very clean. I ate in the bar where there were a good selection of beers and ciders and the food was ok too. I wasn't sure what to expect from breakfast because trip advisor was brutal on this aspect but I was pleasantly surprised. It is served buffet style much the same as a premier Inn breakfast. Everything was very nice with the exception of the fried eggs which looked fine but were solid. Checkout was easy. Be aware that reception closes at 11pm so if you haven't checked in by then, you're not getting you're room key. This was an issue for my friends who were also staying here. They tried calling Knaresborough for two days running, no one answered the phone ever. Just worth noting if you every need to contact the hotel. Overall I would definitely stay here again though."

"Only downside was a child urinating in the pool Not the hotels fault tho. "

"Couldn’t check in online as website kept crashing so long wait to check in on arrival although I have to say staff are very pleasant & efficient. Bed wasn’t made when we gained access to our room but was quickly sorted. Bed was small double (very small) but not the staffs fault. "

"Awful hotel - in a poor state of repaIr and everything is chargeable inc. the so-called pool (actually more like a paddle pool!), even towels at the pool are charged at £2/towel! No hotel parking - buy a permit from the hotel at £10/permit or park at a nearby NCP car park for £6.50/day. Rooms are very basic with awful.views other than the sea view rooms - basic furniture, some mould in bathrooms and some cracked ceilingbtiles. Only good thing is the English breakfast and location by the sea."

"At check in last Friday I explained that I had managed to park in the last disabled bay as 2 other vehicles parked there without blue badges. The receptionist just smiled and directed me to the machine to pay for parking. I was surprised at this but paid £54 on my credit card. A little while later I returned to reception to ask for a map of Harrogate and mentioned to the receptionist ( a different girl) that I had to pay to park despite having a blue badge whereupon she told me that I didn’t have to pay ! Furthermore she couldn’t do anything about it as it’s a private company and suggested that I send them an email. I immediately did this but have heard nothing since . Completely unsatisfactory. Incidentally if you’re paying to stay at the hotel I really don’t think that you should be paying at all. "

"Staff are friendly, location is just 8 minutes from the train station."

"A good hotel, better organisation around check in time would improve ratings, the bed was reasonably comfortable, however the pillows are as comfortable as a park bench , i didnt sleep very well at all, there were two pilliws each, but they were all rather firm. Breakfast was good, plenty choice from cereal , toast, fruit , full english cooked breakfast as well as pancakes etc from the table menu, but there was a 25min wait for those at our time of eating which was @ 9am. Fresh coffee was very nice. "

"Lovely room, very clean however no mention of no window when booked, but didn't spoil the stay."

"Ideally situated Tour bus stops right outside Staff very helpful and polite Had a family room which was very spacious and a separate room for our daughter (nice for her to have a bit of her own space)"
