Harrogate Joy

The booking procedure was very straightforward. Confirmation of the booking was very quick and we look forward to our stay in Harrogate.

I booked a two night break at the…

I booked a two night break at the Belsfield hotel, lake Windermere through this company. All was well until I received an ‘we are looking forward to you visit’ email from the hotel advising that there is a £15 per day charge for car parking. This is something not made clear on the CHB website. I rand them and was told by the operator that she thought it was on the website but she had not been charged on a recent stay there.
It then took her several minutes to find the parking information in the ‘good to know’ section within facilities, not listed under facilities
The price is advised as including taxes and service fees
Ergo it is very easy to miss. Any additional cost like that should be advised very clearly at the time of booking.
I was not impressed with the customer service I received when I called CBH, no actual help with the issue, just ‘i will pass it on to the sales team, you could take it up with the hotel’

Zero compassion, corporate 'go away' approach to service

Zero compassion and corporate, money-grabbing responses. I suffered a serious health issue and was signed off for 5 months until just recently, I realised I was a mere 4 days past the expiry date of my voucher and contacted them to explain the situation. Absolutely no interest in being understanding or showing a human side to their customer service - complete 'computer says no' responses. An ugly way to do business in my view. I will never, ever use this company or their related brands again.

Easy to use

The website was easy both to navigate and use. In particular the booking review prior to completing was very useful.

The ease off use of the website

The ease off use of the website, but it would be useful if the the premiums for a weekend booking were up front. Another suggestion would be to show some of the latest evening menus at each different venue, even though these may be out of date, but give a general idea of the styles of food they produce and pricing.
Yours sincerely Mike
