Last week I was an observer at my trade union Women's Conference, and stayed as part of a group booking at the Cedar Court Hotel in Harrogate. I thought the hotel was a perfectly pleasant place to stay though I would not go out of my way to stay there again on future visits to Harrogate (I plan to go back in July for completely different reasons).
The Hotel
The Cedar Court Hotel was apparently Harrogate's first hotel, way back in 1671. This sounds really impressive but I can't pretend that I would have guessed it was so old, and this piece of information is gleaned from the booklet I picked up. It reopened in its present form in 1999.

I stayed here for a night in February 2007 as a present from my partner as I grew up in Harrogate.
Grants Hotel is a family-run hotel situated near to the conference centre and about five minutes walk from the Turkish Baths and Valley Gardens.
The carpark is relatively secure and situated to the rear of the building and it accessed by a driveway which involves a little driving skill to get around.
The reception is quite welcoming with plenty of unique furniture, comfortable chairs and personal pictures around rather than the generic historical prints you sometimes see. It also has a 24 hour reception with a wonderfully talkative night porter who also tends the bar in the late evening.
I stayed with my partner in the four-poster suite room and the bed was enormous and exceedingly comfortable. The room was nicely laid out as ...
