to get started.

Convenient location especially to the train station.

Nancy, United States of America

The location was so close to everything we wanted to see. We were able to walk easily to and from the train station. Our room had a wonderful view of the York Minster.

K_elly_m, United States of America

Food good, the coffee the worst and weakest I have ever encountered!

Eamon, United Kingdom

The Minster guesthouse was very comfortable,super clean and we really enjoyed the extras such as the sherry ,mince pies and sweeties. The little touches mean a lot.

John, United Kingdom

The guest house is so charming! Our hosts & the staff were very friendly & accommodating. I loved the "cake room"--a downstairs study where there's always yummy cake & the makings for coffee or tea. Our room had very comfortable beds & linens, amenities for making tea & coffee, 2 TVs, plus a view of York Minster! We were near the cathedral & within an easy walk of most of the major sights. The city is beautiful (& a great place to shop)!

Mwench, United States of America

Very comfortable bed, room very clean and attractive.

Jacqueline, United Kingdom

Very nice comfortable accommodation just a short walk to York Minster and the town. 10 minutes by Taxi from the railway station for only a few pounds. Its also near the rear entrance to the York Gardens and a short cut to the main part of town. Nice full breakfast.

Jeremy, Qatar

A truly wonderful stay. Staff were ever so friendly and helpful we couldn’t have faulted a single thing about our stay. Thank you very much and see you again soon ☺️

Our triple room was a great size and so fresh and clean. The location is brilliant. We walked there easily from the train and we were right in the heart of York. The guesthouse had lots of lovely touches like homemade banana loaf for the guests in the guest lounge and a lovely tray in the rooms with good quality tea, hot choc, biscuits etc.

My Father had booked us this stay and thought he had paid for it through Booking.com but I ended up making the payment direct to the Guesthouse. Although my Father refunded me the cost, it should have been made clearer at the time of booking.
A clean, tidy and comfortable place that is great value or money in a perfect, central location.
