Perfect location

Stayed with my husband for the night. Warm welcome upon arrival and easy check in. Bedroom was nice and quiet and up high as requested which was great. Room was warm through the night but air con worked well. Bar staff need to be better trained as I requested a Bacardi and coke and it was server in a pint glass! Breakfast £16 pp so didn’t eat here. Always stay in this area of york as close to centre. We used Q parking at the Barbican and it worked out at £14 for 24 hours and was only a 5 minute walk.

Location was great but property is tired and rundown Rooms are small, the beds are small and uncomfortable. Only paid parking available almost a block away. Overcrowded with too many bus tours. Not a good value for the cost.

Systems need to be improved although accommodation

Given a room which was out of order and being repaired to start with. Had to go back to reception and queue for 22 minutes before getting re seen and another room offered and made out as they were doing us a favour!

Had a nice stay, ideal location

Had a lovely mini break at this hotel. Very clean and in an ideal location for walking to the city centre. Enjoyed our stay and parked locally. I am returning soon with my mum. One star chalked off as I expected our room to be cleaned and made up. One of the sheets had seen better days, had a tear in it. I won't be using the bar again, far too expensive! Those was my only grumbles but not put me off my return stay.

Good location and comfy stay

Stayed for one night with husband. Was initially put in a room over looking air conditioning vents but moved to a quieter room on request. New room much quieter. Clean, comfortable room. We didn’t have breakfast at the hotel so unable to comment on that. Would stay again.
