My Wife and I spent 2 nights here for our 20th Wedding Anniversary. Mo and the team were absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was pleasant and their knowledge of the local area was second to none. Highly recommended and we will definitely book our stay with them whenever we visit York.

Staying at Crescent Guest House feels like staying over at a friends’. Mo is welcoming, kind, and so gracious and helpful. He talked me through the best ways to get around town, and even gave me an annotated map. The room was well kept and tidy, and you can tell the house is well cared for. Definitely worth a stay if you’re ever in York!

We were welcomed by Mo, on our arrival who was very helpful. The room was clean and tidy and excellently laid out. The kitchen access was a real bonus. Everything is in easy walking distance so no need to worry about parking. There’s a small bakery next door which does excellent breakfast food and takeaway lunches. We enjoyed our stay so much we’ve book to come back again same time next year.

Mo the owner is very friendly and communicated efficiently with me to allow an earlier check in. He was very helpful and arranged my parking. My room was clean and tidy. The only negative is I was in room G3 which joins the reception and communial area. The walls are very thin so it was quite noisy and the spa like music played until 11pm. Id stay again in another room.

Nice place, easy walking distance into the city and I loved having a fridge and kitchen facilities available - as a regular business traveller, I get SO tired of eating out! Downsides: no lift and some rooms are on the 2nd (3rd to an American) floor; and the road outside has traffic at all hours. Neither bothered me, but I'm reviewing to give others the information. My room was clean and comfortable, I enjoyed being at the top of the building, I appreciated the provision of heater, fan and ironing gear, and having a comfortable chair not just having to sit on the bed. If the stars align, I hope to return.

Doesn’t look much from the outside but the room was clean and tidy and the host was reallly warm and welcoming. Just a short walk into the centre. Our only issue was that there was no heating on and when we got back after a night out we were cold and the radiator wouldn’t come on. But there were blankets on the bed so we wrapped up!
