Cracoe Hotels

"Location was ideal for visiting Harrogate town centre, and parking was plentiful. Overall property was clean and comfortable, but could do with a bit of TLC / updating. Wallpaper in the corridor next to room 237 was hanging off and some areas need freshening up with a repaint. We chose to have an evening meal in the restaurant, which was advertised as ‘Carvery style’, however, probably due to it not being busy, our order was taken at the table, which wasn’t particularly a problem. One of us chose the roast turkey and the other had lamb shank, but we did feel the choice of vegetables was very limited given it was advertised as ‘carvery style’ … we were offered sauté potatoes, butternut squash and cabbage, which left the turkey dinner looking rather bland, and we felt that there was too much meat in comparison to the amount of vegetables provided. The breakfast offered had plenty of variety (both hot and cold), and was generally very good, except the fried eggs which were not freshly cooked, and having been on a covered hot plate, were disappointingly hard. All of the staff we met were very pleasant and helpful, and the hotel was lovely and quiet during our stay, so we enjoyed a restful stay. We also felt the price including breakfast was very reasonable, and would definitely stay there again."

"Room though clean was a little dated "

"Great room "

"The breakfast was fresh. Overall, I enjoyed my stay"

"The room was very nice and very clean. The bathroom particularly was very modern and clean. The man looking after the breakfast room was lovely. "

"Parking is good we didn’t have a drink in the bar. We have stayed here many times over the years but it has gone downhill. Poor maintenance in the bathroom… no hot water for a shower or a wash! Went to breakfast and was told we had to be finished within half an hour… people on the next table… the waitress actually asked them to leave!! My husband complained at reception but they just said ok I’ll let them no… with no apology. Also check in not very welcoming! Also they have spoilt the countryside views by putting an 8ft fence up ! We will be looking elsewhere to stay next time! "

"Stayed in one of the cabins, smelt very musty and seemed rundown. No shampoo in either of the despensers and I only found out whilst in the shower. Only a couple of channels worked on the t.v. For a £100 I would expect more!! I've stayed here quite a few times but this will be the last"

"Food was great, room was clean and staff were nice and freindly "

"I've stayed at The Crown a few times...and many will say its outdated...needs a lick of paint...not me...its quite a charming hotel with character and squeaky floorboards...dont ever change...plus the location is fantastic..."
