Set on the edge of Harrogate's historic centre, Cedar Court Harrogate is a Grade II listed hotel with a well-established reputation in one of Yorkshire's most sought-after destinations. The property offers 100 bedrooms, Amber's restaurant and bar, multiple meeting and event spaces, and generous on-site parking, well-positioned to serve both the town's thriving conference trade and its strong leisure market.
The heritage setting gives the hotel a distinctive character, and the range of business that flows through it, from corporate stays, conferences, weddings, and leisure guests. This means the team works across a broad spectrum of hospitality. It's an environment where you're likely to be stretched, supported, and given the chance to develop in a hotel that matters to the area it sits in.
