The hotel was clean. Room was a decent size. Loved the decor (the wall was covered in Harry Potter pages!). Lovely little touches in the room. Good tea and coffee making facilities. Parking was easy.
United KingdomCould not fault this lovely Guesthouse. Ruth and Rob's special little touches eg little bag of Yorkshire mixture sweets and a note of their history really touched my heart. Bed was very comfortable and amazing, quality bedding. Highly recommend and will definitely stay whenever in York. Great location. P. S- Dean is a darling, perfect addition to a perfect place to stay!
United KingdomExcellent bed and breakfast close to all attractions and railway station
United States of AmericaFree cake! Well run, bed very comfy, room felt very luxurious for the reasonable price. Location perfect, especially if you want to be close to old town and have a easy walk from the train station.
United States of AmericaGreat breakfast, great room, beautiful view of York Minster, parking (a bit of a hike though).
United States of AmericaNewly renovated with great bed and a nice modern bathroom. Steps away from the old town. Thanks for arranging the parking permit.
United States of AmericaLocation is outstanding - easy to find, very close to Minister and Rail Station. Very cozy. Tea/Coffee and Yorkshire cake also very welcome addition for stay :)
United States of AmericaGreat Full English plus other options, great location, really friendly and helpful staff
United States of AmericaGreat location, room was comfortable and very clean.....we had a newly installed shower. We had a cooked breakfast as extra which was tasty and it was lovely to have homemade cake on arrival!
United KingdomThis property is located centrally and within easy walking distance of York Minster and shops/restaurants. The Inn is just lovely; my "attic" room was large and well appointed - and the bed was heaven! Ruth was super friendly and helpful with suggestions and I was quite disappointed to not be staying longer. I highly recommend Minster Walk and look forward to a return trip in the near future!
