Cute room in fab location. So easy to get around York. Delicious breakfast. Room clean. Could do with a little TLC with paint on doors. A little noisy, but to be expected when staying in an old pub. Would stay again.

I stayed at The Fat Badger as a solo traveler, experiencing York for the first time. I’m so glad I chose this accommodation, not only for its cosy, relaxing atmosphere, but also its modern touches and ideal central location. There is such charm there that one can’t get from a hotel chain. I also found the staff very friendly and always ready to assist. I look forward to my next stay at The Fat Badger.

The only down fall was that the bed was uncomfortable. Too soft, we are used to a more harder mattress. So we didn't get alot of sleep. Other than that we couldn't fault anything else.

Had a lovely stay in York. Had attic room in the old hotel which was nicely presented. No aircon but had a fan. Good sized room and ensuite but no hooks or anywhere to hang towels/clothes. And no room for cosmetics. Good breakfasts. Good location.
