Nothing terribly unique. But it was withing decent walking distance of York city center and all the attractions, shopping, and food that goes with that. The breakfast was also incredible. Really excellent. The neighborhood was very quiet and felt quite upscale.

A surprisingly large large hotel renovated from a lovely Edwardian (or maybe Victorian) redbrick house. The room was cozy enough, though perhaps a new mattress would be a sound investment. I was in an economy single room. It was suitable for work I was doing, as well as walkable to the city centre. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the breakfasts were delicious and satisfying.

It is near to city centre in a quiet road. Large Victorian/Edwardian house. However the bedrooms are incredibly small, and dividing walls are not soundproof. I am a size 16 and 5'6" tall but cd barely fit into the shower. I didnt bother. Good fryup for breakfast but no fruit offered, no meusli, no plain yoghurt

Lovely hotel. Staff were fantastic, very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast amazing. Would definitely stay again. However I would request a room on a lower floor next time. We were in room 18 which was small, but adequate and on the 2nd floor. My fault that I failed to mention mobility difficulties at the time of booking, so bare in mind if you have similar problems. Looking forward to our next visit.

Needs new mattresses

Everything was wonderful, the unit were clean and nice. Staff was very friendly and helpful. My only complaint was the mattress. The mattress only had a thin layer over the springs. I had a hard time sleeping because of this. Other than that the place was great
