All above ( ideas ) were fine.
What would make a difference was in confirmation of booking to include how check actually works not just a smart lock but practical steps
Email will come with a code which opens front door and room .
How parking works ( are discs or labels needed )
If traveling it’s not always possible to be online permanently so if need to look for an email to add check in - just say at first communication
Plus if confirmation re a twin vs double was required then tell us at booking confirmation . Staff tried to contact us but we booked a twin so wasnt expecting to have to confirm choice again .

Jasper who was sent to sort room was superb and helped laundry delivery man who was close to a heat induced medical event

We stayed in room 7, adequate for what we needed for two nights but the en-suite was quite small.There are quite a lot of stairs up to the room, we also had a problem getting into the property as the electronic locks did not work as described.We received a message saying to use the last four digits of our phone number,this did not work!On the message the numbers were different to my number and this was where the confusion started. I had to call the agent for access and they said try the number on the message and this then let us in.On our second day arriving back to the accommodation another couple were having the same problem and so I let them into the property and also there room which was next to ours,then it dawned on me that they could get in our room and I could get in there’s!!The following day at breakfast I informed the manager and she said it was Expedias fault and she would contact them!!!!

The property itself was well presented and clean, and the room was also clean on arrival. However, we had booked a \"Luxury King Room\" and felt the description was somewhat misleading. The bed was actually a double rather than a king-size bed (which I later noticed is stated in the room details), so the room name itself felt confusing. I’d also say the \"luxury\" description was an overstatement, as the room felt more basic/average than expected.

Unfortunately, we had quite a poor night's sleep. The room was very warm; although a fan was provided, it was quite noisy, and with the window open there was a lot of traffic noise. Even at 3:30am there were still cars coming and going outside. The curtains were also very thin and not blackout, so we were awake much earlier than hoped.

The biggest issue for us was the pipework noise – we could hear what sounded like a water tank refilling every 20–30 seconds throughout the night, which made it difficult to sleep.

On a positive note, the breakfast was good. We also noticed eye masks and ear plugs available in the breakfast room, although unfortunately we only discovered these the following morning.

Overall, I feel the room descriptions and photographs set expectations higher than the reality. Looking back, I would likely have chosen somewhere more central and, particularly in warmer weather, somewhere with air conditioning.

Overpriced. Cramped. Not idea location.
Didnt like that it was remote reception.
Despite reserving 2 separate beds, upon arrival it was a King, and it took 3 hours to change. I suggested I book elsewhere but they were adamant I wait two hours whilst they correct the room.

Location was good and I managed to get parked in the small car park. Breakfast was very nice. Shower was excellent.
Bed was squeaky.
Residents made a lot of noise returning at 1.00am and 3.00am.
There was a constant noise throughout the night at least every couple of minutes. It sounded like a toilet flush but I assume it was the plumbing. Worst nights sleep in years!

It was a lovely room i was a solo traveller this time and it was the perfect size for me.Everything was there that you needed. Good quality shampoo/conditioner. Showergel handwash amd hand lotion. Excellent choices of tea/coffee/hot chocolate and a small packet of biscuits in room. Shower was amazing. Breakfast was really tasty. Staff very efficient and friendly. They couldnt do enough for you. They have parking passes in the hall way so that you can park for free.Thats a bonus as its expensive to park in harrogate. Will definitely be staying there on my return to harrogate.

Great place to stay in Harrogate

A great place to stay, clean, comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed for the one night of our stay. Lovely served breakfast by a really pleasant girl who was on her own but remained calm and efficient under pressure.
Two small criticisms,couldn’t find plain old terrestrial tv but everything else available and the “garden room” we booked turned out to be the front garden on to the main road. Minor criticisms about a great syay

We had a two night stay at the Fountains Guest house. Great location to walk into town and we managed to get a space on the rear car park.
Smart entry system worked well so no need for room keys - a bonus . Super comfortable bed with modern bathroom and shower - small bathroom but perfectly adequate. We loved the availability of fresh milk in small flasks for the room if needed and well stocked hospitality tray .
Breakfast was delicious- everything we needed and friendly service .
Highly recommended 👍

Lovely little Guest House.

We had a lovely stay at the Fountains Guest House. The Guest House was near to the town and also very near to the Conference Centre. The Host was very friendly and helpful . The bedroom was clean, warm and comfortable with seats in the bay window so that we could people watch.The shower had a great rainfall shower head. The breakfast was tasty with a good selection of cereals, yogurt and hot food. There was also a house keeping service which we weren’t expecting so we never went short of tea, coffee and biscuits in the room. Couldn’t fault anything and will definitely visit again.

Great Stay at the Fountains

We had a great stay in an apartment at the Fountains. The staff were very helpful & the breakfast was delicious, the only thing missing was some fresh fruit. Free off street parking was a big bonus. Milk & a bottle of cava were left in the fridge for us on arrival. Location was perfect, only a 5-10 min walk to some very good bars, restaurants, shops & the stunning Valley Gardens. Would highly recommend you stay here.

3 night stay in Fountains apartment

3 night stay in Fountains serviced apartment which was clean, modern and close to all main attractions / shops. Provision of initial items - tea bags / coffee / salt / pepper etc, along with adequate cleaning materials and toilet rolls to last full stay. Towels were supplied and were large and soft and good quality. Kitchen was fabulous and very new and suitable for a family.
Only two points to mention, had to call the help line number to get door entry code , but, sorted out quickly and courteously and a few pre- stay questions also answered quickly and efficiently.
Would score it at 9.9 out of 10 and only reason for this was that there were a few cobwebs and spiders to be seen, mostly in corners or on carpets, which were not a major issue and could have been sorted out with a quick whoosh round along tops of walls and along skirtings prior to our arrival.
Overall, this property does what it says on the tin and would certainly return in the future and would recommend to any other families looking for a comfortable , central place to stay in Harrogate
