What's not to like?! Probably one of the nicest places I've stayed! From start to finish, everything was perfect! Amazing hosts Tania and Jon could not have been more welcoming and eager to make sure we had everything we needed. The whole house was beautiful with such attention to detail in every room and the garden. The bedroom was gorgeous (twin room), very homely with everything you could need, very comfy beds, kettle, hairdryer, heater, fans (which were needed) and a fabulous shower and even bath robes and nice big bath towels! The breakfasts were 100% the best I've had in a hotel, I tried the full english and the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, both cooked to perfection 👌 Thank you so much for looking after us so well, I can't recommend this place enough! Stay there! It will be the best decision you make!! 😁

A really well thought out space, beautifully decorated in a stunning location. The thoughtful touches of Welsh cakes, bread and fruit juice made us feel so welcome! The instructions on access couldn’t have been clearer. The flat was spotless. The views were stunning. The area was fantastic. The people were friendly and helpful and there was plenty to do within a 30 minute drive. Can’t recommend enough the Welsh Highlands Railway and Beddgelert to Nantmor river walk. We felt our dog was equally as welcome and there was plenty of space for her to explore and settle in. The most wonderful stay, we’re so grateful!

The hotel is located in the new town area. Super convenient. The tram station is just 4 mins away. Tram takes you from and to the airport. £9 return. Around the hotel, there are plenty of restaurants, a John Lewis shopping mall, to feed yourself and do some shopping. The balmoral hotel is just nearby where we went to grab a drink in the evening. Everything is within 20 mins walking distance, which we found it super convenient.

Everything is within 20 mins walking distance, which we found it super convenient. Breakfast was good selection of food though very crowded on the 2/F. But after knowing you can eat breaky on 1/F, we never joined the crowd again 😅. The breakfast area is a bit too tight for the capacity of the hotel. I always needed to wait to grab stuff and things are just clustered together. Room service did not exist - maybe that is a way to cut cost. But I am still very not used to this. For example, when we ran out of toilet rolls, reception asked me to go and collect it myself… it is a bit awkward when you are running out of stuff and you need to go out of your room to get sorted 🥲 We travelled with our 2YO hence booked a double bed room with a sofa bed. I thought the sofa bed should be made already for sleep but it didn’t not. So the first night we were all squeezed in the double bed which was crowded! The second day, I asked the house keeping to help us set up the sofa bed which they did, great! The bed was NOT comfortable at all. If you really are fussed about this, maybe this hotel is not your choice. Lack of storage in the room makes things difficult to be organised. Our room is located on the ground floor which is the same level of the car park. I find it a bit annoying that the corridor is always colder than the rest of the hotel because it is connected to the car park. Accessibility is a big issue in this hotel, there are a lot of steps. For example, entrance of the hotel has no slope for pram users and wheelchair users. Inside the hotel, there are always mezzanines which cannot be accessed by lifts.

Beautiful place, used as a stopover but wish we had more time to explore and will definitely be back. Really nice, cosy and clean room, well equipped, good location from what we saw, fabulous stars once the cloud cleared and nice fresh breakfast options.

Great location, close to train station, and close to the centre via the York museum garden that is opposite the hotel. Rooms are clean and comfortable, well stocked mini bar and good range of quality toiletries in the bathroom

Devoid of any atmosphere, we may as well been none existent, never saw any member of so called staff, room was clean and tidy, but only slightly larger than a shoe box. BUT, this may be down to booking .com, we asked for breakfast and parking, both none existent. And just 1 more thing you need to be a mountain climber to get to the rooms above the wolf Inn, which ain't any good when you are getting on in years.
