The Royal Baths Harrogate

For years, the Royal Baths has been the jewel in the spa’s architectural crown. The venue sits at the bottom of Parliament Street and faces the Crescent Gardens. After years of neglect and dereliction after the rich and famous (and even some down-to-earth Yorkshire folk!) stopped coming to the spa for treatment, the Royal Baths is once more a centre of excellence. Only in a very different form. Today the Royal Baths, which originally opened in 1897, is enjoying a renaissance. The Turkish Baths and Health Spa have been extended. Plus, the £1.5m restoration of the Grand Pump Room now houses a Chinese restaurant. The Pump Room of the Royal Baths was originally used to dispense the famous mineral waters to a great octagonal mahogany counter. But the real glory of the 1897 building was the soaring dome. And it was this magnificent architectural feature that meant love at first sight for the site’s restaurateur, Mr Hak Ng.

Old Swan Hotel, Harrogate

The Old Swan Hotel Harrogate is one of the most famous hotels in Harrogate, Yorkshire, with a history going back nearly 200 years. With picturesque lawns and gardens, and just a short stroll to the centre of town, Harrogate International Centre and many tourist attractions, it combines Victorian splendour with contemporary luxury. From its revolving doors to its famous glass-ceilinged Wedgwood Restaurant, The Old Swan Hotel Harrogate exudes romance and mystery. It was to this tranquil haven that the mistress of crime-writing, Agatha Christie, famously disappeared in 1926, resulting in a public furore over the 11 days that she could not be traced.
