This is York

Stayed in disabled room. Comfortable & well designed bathroom. Possibly could do with additional grab rails in shower. When the room heating was inadequate hotel promptly provided additional heater. Hotel close to York city centre with ample carparking on site (£17/day). Would use again.

Okay for a night away

Very nice hotel upon entering and the lobby, bar and restaurant space were excellent. We ate our evening meal in the hotel and the food was good quality but a bit pricey for what it was. There was a bit of confusion over the happy hour deal but the staff rectified it for us really quickly so no complaints there. The rooms were really nice and very clean, however, we didn't have the best sleep as the air conditioning in the room was so loud. At one point I got up as I thought one of the kids had left the tap running. We also had a pull out couch bed for our son and this wasn't the comfiest. Overall it was perfectly okay for a night away and we wouldn't be disappointed returning but, being honest, we'll probably look elsewhere next time we're in York.

This was a really nice stay. The staff were welcoming, the foyer is really modern and it was nice to sit and have a drink. The rooms, had some small stains on the carpet and very thin duvets, but apart from that, they were roomy and comfortable. It did miss a bath though, which was needed after a long day walking. Breakfast was plentiful and had lots of options and was not overcrowded. I would definitely stay again on a return visit.

Nice clean hotel in a good location. We stayed in the superior queen suite and unfortunately our room had an adjoining door to the room next to us. Our neighbours were having a gathering past midnight and you could here everyone taking and laughing as clear as day through the door. I asked reception if there was anything they could do and although they attempted to rectify by asking the guests to settle down. When the music went off, the conversation continued and still was too distracting to get shut eye. I had a long drive the next day so was disappointed to get less than an hour's sleep.

Greeted with a smile upon arrival, the hotel was clean and there was ample parking. The staff were great, warm and friendly, nothing too much trouble. The room was very spacious, the bed was comfy and everyone had a great nights sleep. Breakfast was god quality with lots of choice, always greeted with a friendly smile by the servers. The hotel was on the river bank and within easy reach of the city. All in all we had a great time and will be back. Thanks 😊

Great Hotel, within easy walking distance of York City Centre – 10-12 mins max.Room was very clean and spacious with a good-sized TV (55Inch) and a good selection of teas and coffees provided . Bar was clean and well stocked , good selection of fines and beers and reasonable prices. Plenty of onsite parking @ £17 per night – not cheap, but not extortianate for a major tourist spot like York . Will go again.

Graduation Ceremony Stay

The hotel location was great with a short walk into York. It's a shame that there was a need to charge an additional £17.50 for parking per day when we had spent £250 booking 2 rooms. Plus our complementary drinks vouchers never arrived in our inboxes but the hotel was pleasant and we had a nice stay.
