Lock in a great price for The Queens Hotel - rated 8.3 by recent guests.

to get started.

The rooms were excellent size and very clean. Situated next to the river giving a beautiful outlook from the lounge area and sime of the bedrooms.

Stephen, United Kingdom

My wife and I have stayed at the "Queens" several times before and although a budget hotel, the location overlooking the river and proximity to all major attractions in York is brilliant. Staff are very friendly and the in-hotel dining is great value for money. There are not too many hotels one can relax in with a glass of wine and watch pleasure boats sailing up and down river.

Maureen, United Kingdom

Staff were very friendly and welcoming nice atmosphere .Good breakfast and helpful staff . Beds very comfy and good location.

Martin, United Kingdom

The staff were very helpful and friendly, particularly the waiters at breakfast time, and the location near the river is fantastic. Lovely restaurant and bar areas, plenty of choice for breakfast, and a short stroll to the shops and Minster. Ideal for a short break.

The bar was directly behind the main eating area. It would have been better sited where the comfortable seating area was. Towels in room were very small. Breakfast was a disgrace. I came down at just before nine and was told there was a wait. I came back later at 0935 and was told there was still another wait of about 20 minutes. I therefore had no breakfast as i had a train to catch.
The rooms were excellent size and very clean. Situated next to the river giving a beautiful outlook from the lounge area and sime of the bedrooms.

The Hotel was full and consequently there was a short wait each morning for breakfast. Breakfast times were extended to compensate but there were still delays - but the excellent buffet was worth waiting for.

We have stayed there for the past 5 years and are normally happy with our stay. This year however the room was looking tired and needed a deeper clean. We were on the ground floor and were woken early (7ish) by the cleaners banging doors and hoovering. There was a lot of noise from the road and people passing by on their way to work. On checking out we were never asked if we had enjoyed our stay. I informed the receptionist of our dissatisfaction with the room. She was uninterested in our issues, she did apologise but it held no sincerity whatsoever as she didn’t even look at us. We have booked a different hotel for our visit next year.
