The Old Swan Hotel(Harrogate, Yorkshire, UK) |
|||
|
|
Situated right in the heart of Harrogate, the Old Swan makes a perfect base for exploring this delightful spa town and the nearby Yorkshire Dales. A fine old building, the hotel retains enough Victorian architectural features to maintain its identity, while offering a wide range of accommodation more suited to contemporary tastes in style and comfort (though you can still have a four-poster and a roll top bath if you want one). The Old Swan is probably most famous as the place Agatha Christie disappeared to in 1926 following her husband Archie's announcement that he wanted a divorce. No one found out where she was for 11 days - so if you're looking for some privacy, this might be a good place to hide out. On the other hand, The Old Swan is also perfect for celebrations, events, meetings and weddings, so sociability and a unique combination of old style comfort and modern technology are catered for. The grandeur of the original building is most apparent in the opulent Wedgwood Restaurant. Boasting one of the most beautiful dining areas in any hotel, the restaurant offers top quality English cuisine, cooked mostly with organic, GM free ingredients, locally sourced. And the magnificent glass ceiling (real, original to building - not invisible barrier type) will shed light on any special occasion. Enjoy Harrogate's famous Royal Pump Room spa and its renowned tea rooms or take in the wide green spaces of the stunning Yorkshire Dales before retiring to this grand dame of hotels that is, in itself, a destination.
