The Ruskin is an elegant, spacious, characterful building in a quiet road only a few minutes from the town centre. The breakfast is outstanding: organic, local, and plenty of options, including kippers or boiled eggs and soldiers. If you can time your visit away from conference dates, you can get rooms at very good rates, not much more than a... More

Immediately, we were offered a larger room, which we accepted. With our booking came use of the local gym and swimming pool (though it was small, this too offered friendly service). The very central... More

The hotel is very well situated for Harrogate centre and outwardly is very well presented. Internally however, the decor has become slightly worn and dated with much of the furniture having seen better days. The wall paper in the family room was peeling off the walls and the floors creaked excessively. Apart from this, the beds were comfortable and the... More
