First York Visit

This hotel ended up being perfect. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was amazing, being very close to everything, the station, York minster, the Shambles and the art gallery. The restaurant was good as well, even though we only ate there the first night. We fully recommend this hotel.

Beautiful Hotel

Such an amazing hotel. The staff were so friendly, and the hotel was amazing. I would be looking to return to this hotel on my next trip to York. Perfect location as it’s only a few minutes walk to the city centre.
Satbir, 1-night trip

Great room that felt luxurious. Good size pool. Quiet hotel that had everything we needed. Only downside was the chain lock on the door was practically hanging off, but it didn't affect the main lock of the door.
