Over night stay

On a positive note the staff were lovely, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was freshly cooked and good quality, the bed comfortable and the bedding spotless. However the whole place inside and out, including the bedrooms and public areas, needs a massive refurbishment. The peeling paint on the front of the building is not a good first impression. Neither is the hole in the wall on the bedroom corridor. In my room, the television didn’t work, the fan was ineffective, the bedside cabinet stained and there was mould in the shower. Considering how much I paid, I expected more. My stay was definitely over priced and disappointing.

Short stay

I don't know what the website says about The George Inn, but I wasn't prepared for the number of steps to my room, 33 in total I think.OK for younger man but I'm in my mid eighties; a word of warning wouldn't go amiss. The room was clean and comfortable, the TV didn't work properly though and the plumbing was noisy. The staff were polite and helpful.

Friendly staff dog friendly can have your dog in the dinning room with you etc Didn’t hear a great deal of noise from downstairs in the pub once we we in our room But Saturday night the noise in the bar was was to much especially when you were trying to eat in dining room and talk with friends. Had to go out and sit in the beer garden to get away from the noise. Good location for what we wanted Easy to check in and out etc Nice size room

Stop over on the way to York

We stayed as a family of 4. The hotel is clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly. There is free parking on site, just confirm your registration at reception. We had a great breakfast that was included in the price. We were very pleased with our stay and would definitely consider returning if we are in the area.

The George is an old property, and it feels like it needs an injection of TLC, it has wallpaper coming off in areas. The rooms are tired and dated. However, the staff are really friendly and helpful, the town of Selby has lost its charm. The Abbey is spectacular and the concert there was brilliant.
