Hotel is excellent, our room was well cared for and very comfortable, it had everything we needed. Location was superb, walking distance to all the main visitor stops and shopping and cafes restaurants too. Staff are wonderful, knowledgeable, helpful and polite without being intrusive. Highly recommended.
We had a happy comfortable stay. Not a luxury place but provided what we needed. Location is also good as we left the car and walked everywhere with ease.

This was our second time staying here and it was as good as the first time we stayed, staff are so nice, room was lovely, breakfast was perfect good selection of food and a cooked breakfast as well. Walking distance to center shops and restaurants, parking onsite too
This has got to be one of the friendliest hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The hotel staff were so lovely and helpful; they always greeted you with a smile and made you feel so welcome. The hotel is ideally placed to visit York with a pleasant 5-10 minute walk from the main sights and river. The rooms were comfortable and the breakfast delicious. I’d highly recommend this to anyone visiting York and would definitely stay again.
Room was excellent and refurbished. Hotel location is perfect for city centre attractions. Great parking. Hotel staff all very helpful and friendly. We will be returning to this hotel.
