We enjoyed our short stay at Alexa Guest House while up in Harrogate visiting friends. Our on-suite double room was small but perfectly formed. Flat screen TV, Taylor's tea and White Company toiletries were all nice surprises. Breakfast was excellent with all locally sourced ingredients. Highly recommend the poached eggs! My reason for not hit the 5th star was the... More

Have just returned from a 2 night break to the Alexa House in Harrogate 30/05 - 01/06.

On arrival we received a very warm welcome from Sandra who advised on breakfast times and the honesty bar. The guest house itself is located in a brilliant location and a gentle 10 minute stroll takes you to the heart of Harrogate (just turn left out of the front gate and not right like we did!). We enjoyed just one... More

I am pleased you had a lovely time. I wonder how far you would have walked in the wrong direction? Ripon is lovely but perhaps the shops would have been closed by the time you got there. Thank you for the review Sandra More

Had been looking forward to staying as it had been my family home as a small child in the early 60s and although I couldn't really remember any detail it didn't disappoint. Very clean and comfortable rooms and very relaxed atmosphere. Sandra had advised us in advance that she may be out when we were due to arrive but left... More

We stayed for 4 nights 11 - 15 April 2013. Clean and comfortable but being in the front 1st floor room broadband did not reach, due to a problem probably with interference from next door. If having broadband is important to you check first. They may have solved the problem by now. The en suite shower water flow was weak... More

Relaxing. Fantastically well appointed. Even down to cotton buds in the bathroom. Beautiful breakfast. Amazing service. Would definitely stay there again. Made our stay truly wonderful. Even allowed us a late check out to the minute as the bed was so comfy

We had a one night stay at the Alexa House, the room was very comfortable and clean , the staff very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was excellent. A good location, only a 10 min walk into town. The only negative was the shower, not much power and not very hot.

I am sorry for your disappointment in not being able to cancel your room. I understand from time to time that people have a valid reason for wanting to cancel a booking. Unfortunately it is not possible to cancel on the day of arrival as I would be unable to re let the room at short notice. I realise that... More
