Hotel Spa
The Bridge Hotel and Spa offers a complete range of leisure facilities and treatments. Facilities include: hydrotherapy pool, plunge pool, outdoor log sauna, crystal steam room, ice fountain, experience showers and footbaths.
Spa & Leisure
Close to the spa town of Harrogate in North Yorkshire, famed for its reputedly healing ‘chalybeate’ or iron infused waters discovered in the 16th century, it is perhaps unsurprising that the staff at The Bridge really know what they are talking about when it comes to relaxation. Including a heat and ice experience that features an apple wood sauna, eucalyptus crystal steam room, drench shower, Japanese foot spas, an ice fountain, experience showers, footbaths, hydrotherapy pool, outdoor hot tub and plunge tub, and a Nordic barrel sauna, the spa is also home to a Snooze Room complete with its own balcony for the summer months, and hanging chairs in the Lavender Courtyard. Alongside multiple treatment rooms, there is a rasul mud room and dry floatation available, as well as a collection of face and body treatments.
Hotel & Accommodation
Owing its name to the 12th century bridge crossing the nearby River Nidd, The Bridge became a coaching station for stagecoaches in the 1800s – which is still reflected in its architecture, while the hotel and spa that it is today boasts traditional ‘Yorkshire hospitality’ and offers four different room categories with bright and cosy colour schemes.
Steeped in history, it is fitting that the bar is named Byron after the wayward Lord but with its oak panelling and inglenook fireplace it provides a cosy environment for an aperitif, while The Courtyard Restaurant with its local delicacies is a delight not to be missed.

My daughter's and I treated ourselves instead of buying Christmas gifts.
It was a wonderful day. We arrived half an hour early, but were able to use the facilities straight away.
The staff were friendly and helpful and showed us where everything was.
The treatments were amazing. One of the best massages I have ever had!!!
We finished the day off with a cream tea in the bar which was a lovely way to finish
The spa, whilst has a few facilities maintenance is required on some. Inside sauna not working properly, just warm not hot. Outside plung pool wasn’t full and only came to knees. Ladies changing rooms - hair dryer smells like it’s burning. The shampoo and condition doesn’t dispenser needed to open the bottle. Men’s changing rooms, their soap smells nasty, men should be offered the same products as ladies. Afternoon tea in the bar was a squeeze. There was a wedding reception in that area and we were squeezed into the corner. Would have been nice to have been offered another area.
Spa facilities poor very disjointed and out side areas not very clean and was the pout side area of the hotel not clean, sick on patio and tables very dirty creating wasps every where so unable to sit out, food was appalling I bought this as a gift for family and all very disappointed with the experience, food was very dry been under lamps too long, veggies not many and again dry, the roast potatoes was cooked within a inch of its life and breakfast were pretty much the same, overall was not the best spa we have been to.
The stay was a gift to me and my husband. On arrival we were not booked in for this day but a day in November so immediately felt a sense of doom. All that aside we enjoyed the afternoon chatting to other customers. Kept having to ask questions which really should have been dealt with on arrival. Food was well presented and tasty and back massage very worthwhile.
Really enjoyed the spa area, nicely decorated and lovely reception seating area. Staff were lovely and welcoming. The outside hot tub was lovely and warm. The plants around the tub were too low for anyone to appreciate. My only disappointment was that one foot spa didn't work and the outside hooks for the robes / towels had no protection from the rain.
Had a lovely relaxing day using all the facilities. Even though we visited in Feb it was wonderful to sit outside in the hot tub in the winter sunshine. All the staff were friendly and helpful, the treatments with the therapists were brilliant and the scones with the cream tea were delicious. Will definitely be returning.
Over all the spa was brilliant. We were a little shocked to see the lavinder room not open but it was january and I dont think they expect anyone to want to go out side outside in next to nothing in this cold weather so we didnt mind. and for the first time in all the times we have been 1 of the japanese foot spas were not in use, which i didnt mind because there are 2 after all so it gave me and the hubby to getting close and share the footspas together. It was lovely.
Was looking forward to the spa to de stress after finishing work for Xmas, 3 hrs access and the rasul mud treatment. We used the all of the facilities but it was busy so unable to book any of the specials on the board. The jacuzzi had scum around it which really put me off. The saunas and steam room seemed fine and also the Japanese foot spa’s but the relaxation room needed a good clean. Lots of dust around. The spa needs a really good clean overall then it will be a pleasure to go again.
Unfortunately we arrived late as WE couldn't find The Bridge Inn I rang reception to apologise we'd be late and a lovely lady gave us directions. Then we were given half an hour back so we would still have the three hours allocated for the visit which we really appreciated and very grateful for.
The facilities we thought needed to be a little bigger for the amount of people there. The snooze lounge needed flavoured waters eg cucumber, lemon and perhaps mint and wasn't very tidy. The outside sauna wasn't working neither was the steam room but was rectified. This tells me they need more staff so it's always on form. Overall though this place is value for money. I think it would benefit from having a pool in the hotel as I'm sure would be appreciated.

The room was clean,the complementary coffee/tea was hidden in a cabinet under the tv. I was disappointed with the evening meal which was a cavery it was just warm and not enough choice of vegetables, sweet potatoes and swede roasted and uncooked mushroom with cooked broccoli was not appealing. The breakfast was better, hot, with a good variety of choice. Staff were welcoming and helpful. My husband said the means toilet near bar / restaurant was very smelly (urinal).The cream tea was lovely and I asked if I could have it in the courtyard area which was lovely. The specialised coffee ( a latte), was pricey at £3.80 it was served in a small cup with a saucer and no biscuit.
Room was comfortable, paid for an upgrade to club room not really worth the upgrade. All we paid for extra was the port and chocolate. We added on an extra night with the hotel to keep same room and it didn't even get cleaned on the next day despite a sign been put on the door for room service.so we had no clean towels, drinks, toiletries etc...
Very few staff knew what they were doing, some did not even speak any basic English. We had to ask for the things we had already pre booked and paid for, such as the voucher for the cream tea and the bubbly, nothing was explained to us on arrival.
We stayed two nights and trust me I've stayed in less expensive spas with more to offer, less overcrowded and hotels that treat you with a better service and Manners.
would I come back again, probably not. Room was definitely not worth the £15.00 per night upgrade from standard to "club"
👍👌
The hotel was brilliant. All the staff are so friendly and didnt mind helping if asked. the music for dinner was spot on. Me and the husband were trying to remember what clasic song was playing.
Only problems were was the hot water tap was broken, you could still turn the tap but when no water was ment to be running it still leacked quite heavey. I dont like the fact the storage cupboard is in use at the top of the stairs next to rooms 38 and 37 when people are sleeping. they were a little noicey getting things out the cupboard and woke me up a few times. My husband slept like a baby.
Arrived at the hotel just before 3pm, room supposed to be available from 2pm. We didn’t get the room until 4.30pm. Room was quite nice. Breakfast in the morning was well cooked and self service. Staff not very chatty. Had an evening meal included in the package but already had something arranged so they agreed to swap it for bar lunch which we appreciated. For the price we ended up having a decent time. At the moment unsure wether we will book again.
