I stayed at the Cairn with friends. It is in a very convenient location for the town with a large car park. The rooms are spacious and clean, maybe a little dated but nothing to worry about. The breakfast was very tasty (we all said so) with a good choice and is served to you - very civilised. Will stay... More

What a lovely place to stay! We stayed this weekend to celebrate a friend's fiftieth birthday. The rooms were comfortable warm and well maintained. We requested rooms on a low floor as near as possible to each other and got exactly that. Last time we stayed at the Cairn, which was well before the current owners took over, the place... More

We stayed here on Easter Saturday with friends & family for a 40th birthday bash. Ideally located within a few minutes walk of the attractions but far enough away from the centre to be peaceful. This is definitely more Olde World than contemporary. As others have stated it needs a basic refresh at the very least if it continues to... More

Had a deal for two night for £135 for two people b&b and would not want to pay any more as the hotel seriously needs updating although the room was clean. Nice but old fashioned traditional public areas and staff were all pleasant enough. Breakfast was adequate with enough choices plus cooked selection as well and nice hot tea and... More

We stayed at this hotel for a wedding due to limited availability in Harrogate. There was a massive line to check in and the staff on reception were slow and very rude. The hotel needs a total renovation the decoration was poor throughout and gaffer tape on the carpets is never a good look! There was a very old tv... More

We stayed at this hotel as it was advertised as dog friendly. They then charged us an extra £10 for the dog to stay and wouldn't let it in the bar or restaurant so there was nowhere in the hotel where we could eat without leaving the dog alone, which is not our idea of dog friendly! We could also... More
