HARROGATE YORKSHIRE HOTELS
Luxury Hotels in North England's Victorian Spa City
by Teri Lynn Hope
Harrogate
in North England, between Leeds and York has been known as an elegant
luxury
destination of fame since the recognition of is spa
waters in 1626. The distinctive odiferous sulfur
infused hot spring waters which flowed from a deep spring attracted
seekers of the waters of the
Victorian Era. The original Tewitt Well is marked in the city by a
19th Century Domed pavilion at the Royal Pump Room. Nearby the newly
refurbish Turkish Baths and Health Spa treat the modern visitor to
the relaxing
luxury
of pampered
body and beauty treatments. The
nearby medieval town of Knaresborough with its royal castle was the more
important
town in
earlier times, but since its destruction as
a royalist stronghold in the English reformation, it is Harrogate that
establishment itself as a wealthy Spa Town. Harrogate’s resort
status declined after the First World War, but after serving as a temporary
government location during the Second World War, Harrogate became an
exhibition and conference center. Its location in the beautiful surrounding
Nidder Valley and the nearby Yorkshire Dales, makes it still a destination
to be enjoyed for its elegant legacy, and one of England’s wealthier
districts.
The
Yorkshire Hotel is an historic hotel of Victorian Grandeur, refurbished
into a contemporary
center of old world style and modern comfort. In
the heart of Harrogate, the Yorkshire Hotel is a short stroll to the
spa baths, Royal Pump Room museum, Westminster Arcade and Victoria Shopping
Centre, Harrogate’s antiques and sweets shops, and of course the
cakes and teas of the famous Bettys Café. The
Yorkshire Hotel was during the war commandeered as a government administration
building,
but since
has regained its place as Harrogate’s
premier luxury hotel, with a recent 
refurbishment
to contemporary style, while retaining its original Victorian grandeur.
The Yorkshire Hotel
has 80 en-suite bedrooms, ranging from standard to executive, many with
views of the old town of Harrogate and 8 luxurious full suites. You can
select a room with a four-poster bed for the more romantic. The Hg1 Bar
and Brasserie is a stylish addition for lunch, dining in style or just
relaxing with a pint, as popular with locals as it is with guests. The
rooms come with individual robes, slippers, fresh fruit and chocolates.
The train station is 3 minutes away and Leeds airport 30 minutes by car.
