The property was excellently situated just around the corner from the Minster. The rooms are well presented with everything you need and staff are very helpful. The pub down stairs is well stocked and a nice environment to be in. Jane was amazing and very generous on our arrival to take our bags in early so we could make the most of our time in York. The breakfast offer is great and the food was lovely, well cooked and great products. The cost of the breakfast offer was well priced and so worth the money spent. I would highly recommend this place for your visit and would happily pay to stay here again.

Single Room - Comfortable

I stayed here for two nights on the wsy back from Scotland to London. I always love York. The room above the pub was comfortable and had all that was needed for the two nights. The check in was quick and was shown to my room. There is no view from the room which didnt bother me as only needed the bed. The shower was good and refreshing. The normal tea and coffee was supplied. It was surprisingly quiet given that it was above a pub.

Perfect pub with great rooms

A lovely pub in the centre of York with rooms and a pay and display carpark behind it. I've stayed here before and will always stay here whenever I visit York.

Room quite dirty

The room was quite dirty, bread crumbs and other dirt were still visible on the floor, including what I think was a cut nail. Lipsticks marks on the glasses in the toilet and spoons and cups were stained. Water was still in the kettle. Also, the toilet only has a bath, there is no showerhead attached to it - which probably is shown in the picture, so my bad that I didn't check properly. And I won't be taking a bath in a hotel room that hasn't been cleaned properly. The only good thing about this place is the location. I don't think I will be back.

You can certainly hear the bar below if on the first floor. The Kararoke was fine the first night but the band was better the second. Watch the cab drivers first one took me on a 20£ taxi ride from the train station. Other cabs to and from were less then 10£

Pleasant find

The single room was comfortable, clean and pleasant. It had tea making facilities, a hair drier and iron. The en suite was of a good size and private. The only draw back was the shower - it had little water pressure and the shower hose was a poor fit. I had a key to a separate entrance which gave me freedom to avoid the bar and flexibility to come and go.

Comfortable room above local pub

Neat, clean, and comfortable room above a local pub. Thought it would be noisy, but surprisingly not. Very centrally located and short walk from the station and to the Minster/old city etc.

Perfect pub, perfect location.

Lovely welcoming pub with excellent rooms. Even though you are above a pub and on the high street, it was silent at night. Pay and display carpark to the rear, shops and other pubs and restaurants next door. 1 min walk into the centre of York. I would stay again.

Bootham tavern. York. 10 out of 10

Great B&B. Cosy room, excellent breakfast and welcoming pub downstairs. Would stay again but I’d book independently as YOU, HOTELS.COM did not pass on my payment to the Bootham and YOU told the Bootham I was 2 persons and needed to be charged double for breakfasts! I had to prove I’d paid for my stay when I arrived which made me feel very uncomfortable and I hold YOU, HOTELS.COM entirely responsible and in no way am I annoyed with the Bootham B&B. They were brilliant at resolving the mix up which was 100% caused by YOU, HOTELS.COM. It’s put me off booking with YOU ever again.
