Old Swan Hotel

Originating from an 18th-Century coaching inn and rebuilt into Harrogate's grandest hotel in 1840, the Old Swan has undertaken a full refurbishment completed in February 2006. Set in 5 1/2 acres of gardens, the hotel is famous as the retreat of Agatha Christie during her disappearance in 1926 and then as the location for the film 'Agatha' starring Dustin Hoffman and Vanessa Redgrave in 1977. All rooms booked on this site are fully refurbished and feature colour TV, trouser press, iron & ironing board, welcome refreshment tray and stylish ensuite bathroom. Please note all our bedrooms are non-smoking. We have a variety of rooms to offer from our Classic Rooms to our larger Executive rooms as well as 10 individually designed suites - some with Four Poster beds and others featuring a freestanding bath big enough for two. Conference rooms can accommodate up to 400 people.
