Warrens

Finalist for Guest House of The Year 2006-2007, this charming Victorian town house is ideally positioned just a short stroll from the historic city walls and all of York’s main attractions.

Providing modern comforts in traditional surroundings, Warrens was created from 2 large Victorian town houses, originally built in 1880. All rooms are en suite, with double and 4-poster rooms available on request. Each room is individual in its design, many with original Victorian features such as cornicing, ceiling roses and some with the original Victorian fireplaces.

Warrens continually strives to make your stay a pleasurable one. It has won several awards, including a Silver Gilt for the garden areas and a Gold Award for the totally smoke free environment. It has also been a finalist in Guest House of The Year and Guest House Person of the Year.
