Lynne, United Kingdom

Everything ,atmosphere . There is so much to see , all the museums are excellent , shops are great .

Carol, United Kingdom

Spacious room with comfy beds. Great central location. Friendly helpful staff.

Louise, United Kingdom

The room was very nice, spacious, the bed was comfy. Only problem was the noise coming from the street and we had to have the window open as it was very warm. We booked last minute and this was the only room left, would have preferred a room with a view over the River Ouse. Lovely setting for the hotel, central to railway station, shops and National Railway Museum. Unfortunately, breakfast was a bit of a shambles, not nearly enough tables to accommodate everyone so we had to wait until a table became free. Would liked to have seen some rolls and cheese as I am not big on cooked breakfasts. A pleasant enough stay though.

We are an independent city centre hotel with a fabulous location on the banks of the River Ouse. All of the attraction, museums, bars, restaurants and shops are within a very short walk of our front doors. This year we are focusing on our bedroom refurbishment, all of our bathrooms have been updated with new tiles and new showers. We have also installed two walk in showers in two of our accessible rooms. We plan to complete the bedroom refurbishment by the end of the summer.

“Perfect location to reach the center and railway station and for an early monin stroll by the river.”

- • Standard Double Room - Smoking
- • Stayed 4 nights
눉It was hot, so you have to keep your window definitely open, however, particularly in the weekends, the area, it becomes noisy approaching loud with a lot of people boozing till early morning. I suppose it is alright in the winter but in summer, with no AC, you have to keep the window open.
눇Cleanliness of room and bathroom

“I have no words...”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted via mobile
눉I was on a family trip of 3 people. The room I reserved was shown a room for 2 people, including a king-sized bed and a single bed. At first I thought this is enough for 3 people to live in, yet the info on the website indicates it's only suitable for 2. So I just booked 2 rooms for us. When I arrived, I found that the facilities in the room, like towels and tea cups are only for 2 persons. However, the beds are well and big enough for 3 people to sleep in. When I stated this situation to the reception and asked for a refund of the other room I booked, they said it was all too late. Also, the room smells funny, not a good scent for a cleaning room. The bedsheets didn't seem clean either. Even the only two tea cups have much stain on them. York is a lovely city. But this hotel... I have no words.
눇Great location.

눉The shower although excellent in itself was over the bath which was difficult for me with fibromyalgia getting in and out, and my mum at nearly 80 had no chance of managing it. This was a shame as everything else was really nice.
눇The bed was very comfortable, slept really well although window had to be wide open it was such a warm night. Lovely room with good facilities.

눉Parking in the hotel underground parking has to be booked in advance, which I didn't realise. The city parking that was recommended by the hotel was very expensive, however I found a place for £2 overnight about 10 minutes walk away by using the Parkopedia app.
