to get started.

The location of this hotel was fantastic. Easy walk to the town centre and lovely to walk along the river too. The room was very clean, cozy and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable too.

Bed was comfortable, room looked nice, nice decor. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location was perfect

David

Location is excellent for visits in and around York. As there is no hotel car park (but an expensive one nearby) we go there by train as it is within a five minute walk over the river from the station. The staff are most accommodating too. The daily replacement of towels was also much appreciated along with a fridge in the room.

Friendly staff. Excellent location for walking in and out of city centre (approximately 10mins). Fresh and bright decor. Easy parking for a hire car just down the street. Excellent restaurants in walking distance.

We decided last minute to add a hotel stay to our trip into York rather than taxi and I was so glad to book what looked like the last available room. The location was great for our plans as the restaurant we were booked into was a few doors down. The room was gorgeous - roll-top bath and really nice decor. The minibar fridge was not mini at all which was perfect for us give the weather was quite bad it was great to have a drink before heading out. Lots of nice extras in the room like coffee machine, sweets etc and really good quality products in the bathroom

When we were leaving to airport and asked receptionist to call a taxi for us . The reception staff said they have no link with any taxi company but persuaded us to book limousines which have link with their hotel . We have no way but booked for one . However after half an hour , no answer when the car is coming and another lady client also complained her booking has long without any news . We asked another staff to book a taxi as time to flight is running short . In few minutes, a taxi came . I wonder why why the first staff said they can’t call a taxi for us as no link to any one. Ultimately when we arrived airport we have no time to get our vat refund . We are really not happy on it .
The room is big and clean

“Overall, other than the location, I felt a little disappointed by our stay.”
- • Leisure trip

Unfortunately the property was undergoing some maintenance during our stay, which we didn’t know about. There was lots of construction noise although luckily it finished around 5.30pm and didn’t commence until 9.30am the following day. Still, it did disturb our stay especially as it seemed to be right above our room and the floors/ walls seem quite thin in this property. The fan in the bathroom was also very loud and came on every time the light was turned on. I think it needs some attention. Secondly, we couldn’t get WiFi in our room. Finally, I felt the hotel lacked some extras which I’d expect when paying £130 a night. There were no bath robes for example, the WiFi situation, and overall, I didn’t feel the hotel was worth the money I paid.
The location of this hotel was fantastic. Easy walk to the town centre and lovely to walk along the river too. The room was very clean, cozy and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable too.

Room not cleaned very well mid-stay (bins not emptied, shower not cleaned properly, toilet roll not refilled). Not really a five star hotel. More like a 3 star hotel that has tried to tick extra boxes to get it's stars up. It was really nice, don't get me wrong. But £150 a night and 5 stars? Not quite.

Room had recently been renovated and had not been cleaned to a satisfactory standard before our stay. Lots of dust etc. We also paid more for this larger double with a bath. However, i dont really feel like it was worth the extra money. Room was ground floor with a wooden fence right outside the window and had plastic sheeting material hanging outside the window. This made it really dark in the room and wasn't exactly a great view to look out onto..
Excellent location. Staff were lovely. Super happy to help and apologised and gave us free snacks from the mini bar to compensate for lack of cleanliness in our room

Heavily perfumed cleaning products, probably used on the carpet, were overpowering and affected my breathing. We couldn’t leave the window open because it opened onto the sidewalk and was very insecure. If you don’t mind strong smells, this would be a great place to stay.
Convenient location, walking distance from the rail station, shops and restaurants, and Yorkminster cathedral. A short walk across a beautiful park takes you to the old town or the river.
