Alternatively, unwind with a newspaper or simply soak up the sun with a drink in the licensed lounge. Bishops is within walking distance of many of York's main attractions. Free off-road parking available. It is a short walk to bus and train stations, making Bishops an excellent base for exploring Yorkshire's countryside and coastline.

All the staff made you feel extremely welcome and gave us lots of top tips and tourist advice whilst visiting York! The room was lovely, although would have preferred a stand up shower rather than a shower head over a bath. As for breakfast, it was absolutely delicious - great choice and great portions. All in all we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to everyone!

The overall feel of the place was great, very welcoming. The room i had was huge. The bed was enormous & very comfortable. The owners and staff were very helpful & knowledgeable about what to do in town, both tourist bits & where to eat. I'd certainly return. Lovely family run hotel. The shower in room 6 was weak! However, that wouldn't stop me staying!

Very nice clean room. Although a twin still had all the extras in it with pleasant view of garden. Excellent breakfasts with local produce. Breakfast finished at 9.30 which is a little early for weekend visit.

The welcome was warm, friendly and informative. Our room was beautiful, relaxing, spotless and had a lovely view of the gardens. Breakfast was great, and fresh milk was provided for you tea in the room Bishop House was a few minutes ride on the bus (every 10 minutes) or taxi from city centre, and a 20 minute walk, If visiting York, you would find it hard to find a better place than Bishop House York carparking charges are very high

Very clean Friendly staff Good quality furniture in rooms Well decorated throughout Good locally sourced breakfast that was cooked well and as healthy as a fried breakfast could be Location was fine 20 mins walk to the centre We were on the top floor so got the shower that didn't have any power and the water trickled out, would it bother us that much that we wouldn't return - no , the fact that it is such a clean , friendly and well positioned hotel negates the shower , plus I am sure the other rooms will have the power due to being lower down in the hotel

We had been to York to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary. It was a last minute booking and we were very much worried about this B&B. But as a surprise, staying in Bishops made the trip better. Room was so clean and tidy. And the standard is as same as you get in a highly paid five star hotels (say Hilton). Well maintained. High quality bed and furniture. Friendly receptionist & staff. Free wifi. It doesn't ask you to register. Free car parking. Easy access to city. (10 mins walk or few mins drive) I would strongly recommend Bishops for my friends. I would rate 10/10 for Bishops.
