The car park was a secure gated area for hotel patrons only which I found to be a massive plus for York. As car parks in York, in my opinion, all seem to be hidden away and often some distance away from most of the accommodations as well as being quite expensive for overnight stays. The receptionists were cheerful, friendly and helpful, which after a two and a half hour drive was a very welcome sight. Our room, although not huge, was comfortable and more than adequate for our needs. The breakfast staff were attentive, helpful and friendly. Our breakfast at the hotel was more than enough to see us through until lunch, and then we felt we only needed a light one. There is a buffet table with cereals, jams,fruit and bread/toast. The cooked breakfast was made to order with plenty of options. Overall we had great stay and cannot recommend the Minster Hotel highly enough. Phil &Ginny Nov. 7-10th

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was lovely - our only real criticism is that the hotel was swelteringly warm all the time even with the window as wide open as we could make it and that made sleeping a little difficult.

Parking was easy but should be made clear on the hotels.com sote that it isan additional cost when not booking direct though the hotel. Documents given to customers state parking is free but had been charged 10gbp per day at check-in as not a direct booking with the hotel. Room showed significant signs of wear with plaster missing on walls. Signs of leaks from the roof. Poor decorating. Bathroom had a failed extractor fan and missing trv contol on the towel rail which meant the bathroom was hot and humid.

We stayed for a couple of nights. Ideal location to access city centre on foot. Very friendly staff. Good breakfast. Only thing preventing five stars was a tiny en suite. The room itself was nice, quiet and the bed comfortable.

A true gem of a hotel in York. Easily walkable to centre. Hotel and rooms spotlessly clean. Tasty, hot breakfast with plenty choice. Comfortable rooms but a little too hot. Good parking area at rear of hotel. Staff very pleasant and could not be more helpful. Special shout out to Gemma and Stuart who were both excellent. Would definitely stay here again. 5 stars all round.

The room was really spacious and had everything we needed including a very large walk in shower. Parking was very secure, although on this occasion we did need to pay £10 per night. The staff were super friendly as always and their breakfasts excellent choices and presentation. Definitely recommend this hotel and its proximity to the Minster and all the shops and restaurants superb.
