Very convenient for City Centre, Staff friendly, Food very good, Comfortable room would recommend to anyone. All in all we had a great stay. Only down side was not to good for disabled people too many stairs and different levels,but this was a listed building so not really the fault of the hotel and staff. This did not affect us, this is just an observation and something to be considered by other potential customers.

The location was excellent, couldn't have found a better place. Walking distance from the station or Minster. Some areas inside the room look a little run down, however the hotel is in the process of renovation and guess all the rooms will be brought upto the same standard. Its great value for the money and would not mind staying at the same place again. The Bathrooms looked a bit dirty and the hair dryer wasnt working.

Hotel was clean and in a good location. The food was lovely and staff very friendly We stayed in room 201 which was located on the front of the hotel with the main road below the noise on a night and early morning was really bad.There was no double glazing which would have helped with the noise level. I would stay again but not on the front.

The breakfast buffet choice. The proximity to the Minster and town centre. The size of the room. The friendliness of the staff. The availability of the free car park for guests. The size of the bed. However, we could have requested a King bed if we had known when booking (which we obviously didn't) Thew website did not give us the option.

Comfortable and clean hotel. Very helpful and friendly staff. Housekeeping did a good job and we were impressed with the well stocked tea/coffee tray. We stayed over the Easter break and were touched by the offer of an Easter egg from the hotel -a very nice gesture. We did not use the restaurant or bar but would presume it to be of a good standard. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to others. I would imagine the bedrooms looking onto the busy main road to be noisy unless they are double glazed. We fortunately had a quiet room at the back.

The staff & service given by them were excellent. Breakfast also was excellent. The hotel was allegedly going through a refurbishment programme but we saw no evidence of this and our room should have been on the list of rooms to improve.

I work in York and we use the Best Western Monkbar Hotel regularly for business accommodation. It is conveniently located for the office and always comfortable and welcoming. Decided to stay in York overnight for pleasure and the hotel was equally suited for a leisure break as business. Reception and bar staff are welcoming, professional and helpful. Room and all public areas very well appointed, clean and comfortable. Only niggle was at breakfast. We were shown to our table but then had to ask the waiting staff for tea and toast. I have stayed at the hotel before and knew that it was self service but tea/coffee and toast served to the table.
