By George, it's good!
Advantages: Reasonably priced, good location, good range of facilities, friendly staff Disadvantages: Decor is tired and old; bathroom could have been cleaner
I have just stayed here for one night, on business.
LOCATION
The hotel is very easy to find, being on the A61 through Harrogate (the Ripon Road). It is centrally located so you can walk into the touristy bits of Harrogate from here if you want. It is right next to the International Convention Centre, which is where I imagine it gets a lot of business - that's why I went there. Its central location is a good point.
It is a beautiful Edwardian manor ... ...usual dining room, bar etc, and a leisure suite too. It has a quite a small swimming pool and a gym and weights room, plus a sauna. This is all useful stuff, if you were staying a bit longer than one night, but I didn't try and of it so sorry I can't comment. It did all look clean and there were obviously plenty of towels etc. The prices were reasonable - a one hour massage for £35, for example. One downside of the hotel's facilities is the car park ...

One of the best
Advantages: good maintainance Disadvantages: exterior look
Macdonald Elmers Court Hotel and Resort is one of the best hotels and resorts that I have ever come accross. One of the most important thing I like about it is the hospitality of the room keepers and hotel managers. They have an excellent cuisine and the structure of the hotel is also fair and good. The maintainance of the rooms is also good . I would refer it to everyone. The resort is an added advantage in connection with the hotel. Anyone can ...

To sleep... perchance to dream...
Advantages: Location, quality, food Disadvantages: Price
...that it's no longer a MacDonald - the hotel has been sold to the Mercure group, part of Accor. Although I couldn't give a toss about the brand on the letterhead, I overheard several guests commenting on the fact it was no longer a MacDonald hotel, so I guess it's important to some people. If you're one of them, be advised.
Stratford-upon-Avon. One of my favourite places in the world. I've hung out with actors, been to the theatre more times than ... ...quite a few of the many bars and restaurants.
One thing I haven't done often, though, is stay over. So when I booked tickets to both parts of Henry IV last month, I decided I'd do things properly.
The Shakespeare Hotel is exactly what you'd expect of a hotel in Stratford. It's old, Tudor in appearance from the outside and all the rooms are named (don't vomit) after Shakespeare characters. The ceilings are quite low and comfy armchairs are ranged ...

A Soviet Touch in an Old English City
Advantages: location Disadvantages: old, unwelcoming and too expensive for what it offers
I stayed in the Lincoln Hotel the other day for just one night. I have to admit that I didn't spend much time on the premises so my report will be quite brief. When you look at the building from the outside, it makes you wonder what this Soviet-style hotel is doing next to the masterpiece of architecture - Lincoln Cathedral. It looks ridiculous. My husband and I were hoping to be pleasantly surprised by the interior, but there was no surprise there, ... ...of this wonderful city. The Lincoln Hotel is not particularly cheap - a double room cost us 80 pounds (around 145 US dollars) per night with breakfast for two. The address is:

YMCA or VILLAGE HOTEL?
Advantages: A comfortable well equipped hotel in Warrington Disadvantages: Mainly suited to the business traveller
...me that The De Vere Village Hotel and Leisure Centre was only five miles from the village of Walton and the crematorium.
As we spent a leisure break at a De Vere Group hotel in May, and liked the standard of the accommodation offered, I made a reservation for Bed and Breakfast in a twin room at The Village Hotel.
