no parking on site and quite expensive had a room on the front which was quite noisy asked to change and got the “ no available rooms to change to “ rooms are small and if on a lower floor you get noise from upper floors
jonathan, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Tv remote did not work and no toilet rolls in room on arrival and remedied eventually after chasing. Breakfast food lowest quality available and we went to McDonalds the second morning! Bar had run out of bottled beer, gin and Baileys and no room service. Very poor and not worth HALF the cost! Go somewhere else if possible.
Adrian, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Room 120 has a wet room and when showering the water flooded from the bathroom into the carpet of the main bedroom, the drain for the water was not open enough to allow for drainage.

Morag, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great hotel, but breakfast service was very poor.

Very clean room and facilities. Breakfast was not very good, whilst the food was great, the service was awful. Not enough staff to cope with the guests. Continually running out of food, cups, sauces, tea bags etc etc, and tables that needed cleaning were stacking up as guests were pouring in.
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great stay here! We loved our room and the amenities in it. We also loved how close the hotel was to the city center and we were able to walk everywhere. We look forward to staying again in the future!

Great rooms

Rooms were excellent. Had all the amenities necessary for a short stay and is well located for the centre of York's attractions. Only negative was the smell of breakfast being cooked, especially as our room was on the top (5th) floor.

Great place and spot

This was a nice place, comfy bed, good shower and towels ( full size ) not the half size some places have. Breakfast was good, walking distance to so many sites and food and drink. We would definitely stay here again
