The George Inn

Market Place, Selby, YO8 4NS, United Kingdom – Show map

Selby on a summer Saturday night is a nice place to stay.

Leen, Netherlands

the food was good, internet speed was great, room was clean and had tea and coffee etc.

Nigel, United Kingdom

I booked a twin room for me and my darter and it was just right for us for a one night stopover on our way to York. We arrived a lot latter than anticipated from Doncaster Airport and this was latter than the last check in, but the staff were still very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was very good. I just wish we had time to look around Selby.

Debbie, United Kingdom

W e often stay at hotels. This was very good. Staff friendly & helpful. Just need to advertise more to get more customer. I was told by locals spent lots of money. With good advertisment should get more customers.

Paul, United Kingdom

all excellent - staff brill, food brill, prices good, back garden facilities excellent

Ian, United Kingdom

The best attribute of the George is the location in the centre of Selby next to the Abbey. It has standard pub fare at reasonable prices, especially as we were staying for a week. It recently had a change of name and some upgrades and on good days has an outside eating/drinking area. Staff are helpful and rooms are totally adequate but could do with some drawers.

Laurie, Canada

Lovely touches such as tea,coffee,sugar,soap and towels.. pub open 24 hours to cateur for guests

Michelle, United Kingdom

Comfortable bed The staff were very friendly and mostly helpful.

Joan, United Kingdom

A great improvement after the recent total refurbishment

Kevin, United Kingdom

The location of the hotel was good. On the whole the staff were reasonable with one exceptional member of staff. The rooms were good value for money.

Location

Situated in the heart of the lively market town of Selby in North Yorkshire, the George Inn is set in a 15th Century coach house beside Selby Abbey. It consists of a large bar area and a beer garden.

Rooms at the The George Inn are decorated in pastel colours and some offer views of Selby Abbey. They are all equipped with an en suite bathroom, a flat-screen TV and tea and coffee making facilities.

The on-site bar and restaurant serves traditional English pub food, including a cooked English breakfast, lighter options such as sandwiches, wraps and ciabattas and larger meals such as burgers, pies and grilled meat.

The hotel is located just a 5-minute walk from Selby Rail Station and only 1,000 feet from the banks of the River Ouse. The historic city of York is only 14 miles north of the hotel and the vibrant city of Leeds can be reached in a 24-minute train journey.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8 for a two-person trip.

눉I didn`t like having a toilet that didn`t flush properly. I didn`t like being woken up by a lengthy conversation between 2 men at about 3 a.m. in the morning in the courtyard underneath my bedroom window. I didn`t like the lack of ventilation in my room: very hot and stuffy and difficult to freshen with only a fanlight window, which was shut when I arrived. I was disappointed there was no yoghurt, fruit, muesli or fruit choose for breakfast - only a `full English`.

“Ever tried to sleep in a night club?”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The new decor in our room was a dingy grey/brown colour (presumably chosen so it wouldn't show the dirt.) Lighting in room and bathroom not good enough for doing make-up. As our room was on the fire escape at the rear our window was locked shut and so we couldn't get any fresh air. Whilst our room and bathroom were clean I think they forgot to vacuum the bedroom carpet. Is the establishment a pub, hotel or night club? It needs the pub and 'entertainment' side to keep going but then it shouldn't be a hotel. It appears quite genteel from the outside, especially being next to the Abbey. (However, when we went to breakfast at 8.30 on a Sunday morning the locals were in the bar drinking beer). Inside it is a very noisy bar, which we could hear from our room and also a night club. How can you expect guests to sleep well when the night club goes on until 3am? When we checked in (at the bar) the harassed staff were serving in the bar so we didn't get a 'hotel' welcome. We paid £60 for our double room (breakfast was extra) and I think that was too expensive to stay above a noisy pub and night club. The door into the building had peeling paint and was sticky to touch. The stair carpet up to the rooms needs replacing. I cannot recommend this place to anyone who doesn't want to drink all day whilst watching sport on the numerous TVs in the bar followed by a late evening in the night club.
눇Breakfast was good for £5. The lady who cooked it for us was very pleasant. Bed was comfy and towels soft. Bedside reading lights good

“The worst hotel I had ever stayed at, and not worth the money at all!”

눉It was so noisy, and I couldn't sleep until 3:30am! I don't think it should be a hotel... On those nights that they know that it is going to be unreasonably noisy like that, they shouldn't be charging £50! Also, it took a while for them to ask me what I wanted for breakfast. I said I wanted a vegetarian breakfast, and some meat sausages were put on my plate(!) Also, on the individually wrapped butter that was put on my plate, there was a piece of fish on it... Staff serving were dressed as though they had just got out of bed themselves!
눇There was nothing I liked about the hotel. The room itself was OK -nothing special with just a bare minimum.

눉See above. The staff were friendly .
눇The smell of stale beer was very off-putting as we walked in. We didn't have breakfast because of the smell. The rooms were clean (my sister had a single room) but the state of the decor elsewhere was very poor.

“Does everything its meant to with a good location, some rooms seem to be hot though.”
- • Business trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Single Room
- • Stayed 6 nights
눉main issue was the room was insanely hot, it was a hot week so it may not be totally fair to compare without staying again, but you could feel a sudden rise in temperature as you entered the hall where my room was, I'm not sure if the rooms down that hall were above the kitchen or something but it was un bearable hot at times. they did offer a fan but it just kind of blew hot air around the room. the booking in was a bit odd, its just done at the bar which is fine it is after all a pub but at times its fairly busy and there wasn't always many people on so booking in was very quick and not overly personable as they obviously had other people waiting to be served drinks.
눇the food was good, internet speed was great, room was clean and had tea and coffee etc.

눉It was impossible to sleep with the industrial extractor outside the window, it was so loud. I got no sleep because of it! With this being the whole point of getting the room I felt ripped off that I couldn't actually sleep in it.
눇Small room was nicely done up for the price.
