Fantastic afternoon tea

I can’t thank the staff at Rudding Park enough. From pulling in to the carpark on arrival to leaving and everyone in between. We had a lovely relaxed champagne afternoon tea and our waitress was very attentive and she explained the lovely food to us especially as I have allergies. We will certainly be returning and recommending Rudding Park Harrogate

Beautiful location with stunning views

I bought this gift for my boyfriend for Christmas and we chose this week as it was our year anniversary. We booked it with the voucher I had and booked to have breakfast as well. We arrived and given our keys straight away. We went up to our room and although could do with a bit of a refurbishment was lovely enough. It was spacious and bright with a lovely view of the river. Water pressure was a bit low but again it was lovely soft water in comparison to our hard water. We had plenty of tea and coffee and water. Breakfast was lovely and included continental and cooked so we had so much to fill us. Staff were so lovely and we felt well looked after. Thank you Royal Lodge for a wonderful couple of days away. We will be back!

A very comfortable stay

We were given a room in the annexe next to The Malthouse, as we'd noticed they have a lot of live music. The room was perfect - comfortable and warm enough with a nice ensuite bathroom. Plenty of choice at breakfast in the main hotel, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. Ironbridge is a pretty town with river walks and plenty to explore. Many thanks for a relaxing break!
