The Grafton

Lovely hotel very clean and welcoming. Great location, Would stay again for sure.

Very nice place with everything to a high standard. It was a brief visit, but we would definitely stay again.

Clean, great location

Nice hotel conveniently located within easy reach of the town centre, very clean room with a king size bed which was very comfortable and good shower.

Lovely accommodation, good location for exploring Harrogate. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful rooms, comfortable and good styling. Street parking with permits provided, and clos to all local amenities and Harrogate centre. Great value and would highly recommend and very helpful hosts.

Lovely sized room, very clean and quiet

Very comfortable stay, very quiet location at night but short walk to harrogate. Nice big room with good facilities.

Very clean hotel had all you required in the room tea coffee iron etc !

The property and room were beautiful the staff were there to greet us very nice then there left us to it which is the way I like it could not fault the Grafton 👍

Good extra information given about food outlets. Venue close to centre but quiet. I would have liked non slip addition to the shower floor

Simple check in. Room was exceptionally Clean and very spacious. Good selection of hot drinks and bottled water in room. Very large TV with good selection of channels. Parking is on street and free at weekend, quite narrow street and cars each side but found a place OK near the hotel. 10 min walk to town centre. No food at hotel but was recommended breakfast at the Ascot which they booked for us and is100m away, and excellent quality for £15 each.

Beautiful room in a great location in Harrogate. It was easy to check in and park for the weekend. The room was impeccably clean and we were given a warm welcome on arrival.

Lovely place to stay. Close to the town centre

Excellent

The room was very comfortable and stylish. The location good. However we didnt see anyone apart from a cleaner who let us in on the first day. The desk was never managed. We would have liked a drink at the bar but noone could be found. It all felt quite impersonal and not homely.

Nice room very quite Nice weekend way Only 7 mins walk to town centre

It was not that great for the price

Very comfortable property but you are left very much to fend for yourself. No breakfast included which would have made the stay better

This is not an easy review to write as in a couple of areas the hotel varied from 5* to 1* - hence the overall 3* rating.On the plus side, the rooms are excellent, clean, quiet and an ambience of luxury - definitely 5* rooms. However, we were surprised about car parking. Several of the websites like Expedia say that the hotel has 'parking included'. In practice, we were given a parking disc to allow us to have local on-road parking - which in this busy residential neighbourhood meant that we had to park in another road not near The Grafton. Even worse, the parking disc only allowed 3 hours of daily parking between 9am-6pm on Monday to Friday. This is not what I would consider to be 'parking included'. The huge stumbling block for us was breakfast. The Grafton's website has a section on Food & Drink, which proudly announces that they were awarded the AA Food & Breakfast Award in 2018. In addition, there are enticing pictures of the breakfast room and a list of tasty foods cooked to order. However...when we enquired about breakfast times, we were informed that they had stopped doing breakfast during Covid - we were, instead, presented with a list of local cafes where we could go and get breakfast if we wanted. We were naturally extremely disappointed with the lack of breakfast, despite the wording on the Grafton's website. So in summary, the rooms were excellent, parking is dreadful and the in-house breakfast is non-existent. We will not stay there again.
