    A relaxing and enjoyable break, with everything you could want in easy access!

    There were a few hidden expenses that were not so enjoyable. Breakfast was more expensive than originally led on- myself and my partner were hit with a large bill at check-out that we were not expecting. Parking is still quite expensive at fifteen pounds, although discounted by staying at the hotel. This was not clear enough on the website we used to book, and again was added to our bill without knowledge- watch out for this!

    The facilities were fantastic! The spa is a massive perk and very relaxing. The restaurant was nice and food - while small in portion size- was very enjoyable. All areas of the hotel had a fantastic atmosphere and staff really went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The location is ideal, it is in the centre of Harrogate while still isolated from the busy streets, it was a 10 minute walk to the train station, allowing us to really explore Yorkshire!

    There was a large wedding happening the afternoon and evening of Thurs 22nd Feb. We found it was very noisy trying to get to sleep, due to the number of guests heading upstairs drunk to their rooms talking loudly. It was intimidating trying to walk through the lounge area past the settees to try to get into the bar at night. Large volumes of drunk men wasn't quite what I was expecting to encounter on a Thursday night in February at a high end hotel.

    The spa was amazing. The dining room and bar area was impressive. The king size bedroom was generously sized. Free freshly baked cookies on arrival was a welcoming gift too to take up to the room.

    The £25 additional charge per pet - we are used to paying an additional amount and that's fine but this is too much and is not obvious when booking. If a hotel advertises as pet friendly - it should reflect this in every aspect. The hotel are missing a trick here. A few little touches in the pet friendly rooms to welcome both humans and their companions would go a long way to winning customers over. Cookies handed out to a queue of people waiting to check in was a nice gesture but better to put another member of staff on the desk at peak check in times. I appreciate this would require an additional check-in PC station but for a hotel this size I think its an investment that's worth making as it's the first impression.

    Excellent large & very comfy bed with quality linen in a very good-sized room. Good city centre location too, only 5 minutes walk to the heart of Harrogate.

    Room was ready when we arrived, the staff we met were very helpful, although in a quiet location, the walk into town was very easy and all the restaurants, shops and cafes we wanted to go to were very accessible

    When choosing where to stay- I was attracted to the fact that Double Tree Had a “Piano Room” in their description. I am a huge fan of Piano Music - so this attracted me to book Double Tree instead of an alternative. However I didnt hear any Piano music - and couldnt even find a Piano in any of the bars despite searching all rooms which were open. The only music was background recorded music.

    Breakfast was ok and typical of this kind if Hotel. There was a very good selection on the Buffet- definitely something for everyone. All nice and hot

    The pool arrangement for families is not ideal. Families with children have 4 hours of the day to use the facilities, but the other guests are still able to access the pool during that period. I feel that they should allow families only, as the other guests have a lot of other hours to use the facilities.

    2nd time we've been, 1st time couldn't have asked more, but this time lots of things were different. No robes/slippers in the room (know it's a little thing but was provided last time) The receptionist wasn't helpful, but the other lady on reception serving other customers was amazing and went into detail about everything, how come we got the useless one who didn't care less??? For some reason the room was freezing The mattress in the room, not fit for the purpose. So uncomfortable, my girlfriend who's dealing with a bad back, got about 2 hours sleep over 2 nights Was surprised to check in and be told we didn't actually have a room allocated us and they had to find one for us And unfortunate that a function consiting of multiple drunken guests ate into our last night, complete with sprint races down our corridor and a rather lively argument that kicked off around 1am........ The first time we stayed, everything was perfect, but this time around, I can't fully explain it but it just wasn't the same.

    The spa facilities are amazing. Food & drink (especially the breakfast were top notch.

    Considering the hotel had its own private car park and they charge £15 per day is disgusting. Also as its a Spa Hotel you are not provided with robes to use at the spa. Unless you pay £10!!

    It was lovely and central and the staff were friendly.

    Fredrick's piano bar doesn't have a piano. Was very disappointed. The name needs changing. The disabled toilet in room 350 was virtually inaccessible for my wheelchair the way it was laid out. I couldn't get on it. The hotel was incredibly hot. The heating was blaring and there was no way to control the temp in the rooms.

    Lovely hotel set in a lovely location. Rooms were nice.

    I rang beforehand to advise I had an allergy to animals and couldn’t have feather pillows but they were still given. There were no slippers in the room so we had to ask for some. The bed was very hard which I struggled to sleep in.

    It’s a beautiful old building in a great location. The room was nice, breakfast was lovely and the spa was great even though only small for such a large hotel
