Overall, it was quite enjoyable and we really appreciated the atmosphere.
Pros:

SPA was excellent and we enjoyed it a lot!

Cons:

It would be great to have the option of two single beds at the same price as the double king room.
We were disappointed that the dinner we had already paid for offered only a small number of dishes within the £30 allowance, which left us with very limited choice and made us feel we had to count every option.
We also hadn’t expected that spa access would be limited to one visit per day.

Enjoyable stay in Beautiful Harrogate
Pros:

Fantastic location, excellent breakfast and room service options, big bed big room

Cons:

£18 to park the car overnight in a hotel I'd paid £253 for the night seemed a bit steep

Overall this was really disappointing. We expected more.
Pros:

Location - very central when attending the convention centre.

Cons:

Room is extremely dated - pictures do not show the true reflection. Unable to open the windows, some parts of the room unclean. £1.50 for a bottle of water in the fridge when the majority of hotel leave one in the evening complimentary was poor.

Cons:

I was charged £260 for a stay of one night which £109 was the one night cost of the room ! the rest of the amount was made up of additional charges for room deposit and pre authorisation charges that were not authorised by me I had to ring the hotel to then discover this is a new Hilton policy that guests have no option but to pay I can’t imagine the cost for a multiple night stay would be .
They simply help themselves to your back account the offer to pay you back within 10 days
I won’t be back if you have any sense don’t bother booking it’s a total rip off !!!

Great salons and outside area, comfy bed. The spa was good.
Pros:

The breakfast room was wonderful.

Cons:

At breakfast I was missing some options such as porridge, Bircher muesli or freshly cooked omelette. The poached eggs were left in a pan with water which didn't look appealing.
The spa was good but the cold shower didn't work therefore I couldn't benefit from the contrasting temperature from the sauna or steam room as it is supposed to happen in spas.

A perfect hotel for exploring Harrogate and surrounding area.
Pros:

The room was very spacious, clean and the mattress was incredibly comfortable. The breakfast was buffet style and caters for every diet, I am a strict vegan and there was plenty for me to enjoy.

Cons:

It would be better if parking was including in the room fee.
