Extremely disappointed poor customer service

We rang to confirm our booking whilst travelling to the hotel only to be told they did not have a record of our booking. I explained I had a receipt, money taken from my account as payment and booking confirmation but they were so unhelpful and just kept saying there was nothing they could do!

A wonderful historic experience

Wonderful stay, great City location, friendly staff, lovely room, very tastefully laid out considering the period of the building. Stay here if you want to enjoy a historic experience. The bed was so comfy and the pillows were like sleeping on clouds. Lots of tea, coffee, milk and biscuits in the room, can't fault the stay, look forward to staying here again.

Hotel was ok - old and had character which was nice and great location. We were in room 11 Guy Fawkes Cottage, the room itself was nice enough, spacious, clean and nice size bathroom but it was located in the pub courtyard. It was extremely noisy - the speaker for pub music is just outside your bedroom door so you basically have music in your room from late afternoon to late evening. There is also a covered garden room just outside your bedroom door - there was luckily no one sat in there on the first evening but on the second there was a group of people sat in there until about 10.30pm - they may as well of been in our room with us as could hear them as clear as day and they weren’t being especially loud just talking! When we booked a double room with garden view this is not what we were expecting- you had to close the curtains as soon as you were in the room because any punters in courtyard could see right in! I think there should be a warning when you book this room letting you know that you’ll constantly be able to hear the pub music and hear customers if they use any of the seating areas literally outside your bedroom door - fine for people who like to be out until late in evening but if you are like us and out all day and return earlier I advise you don’t book!

You won't get a better location for a stay in York. Overlooks York Minster and is on the very edge of York City centre. The accommodation itself is very York, with plenty of room and exceptional value for money. I've stayed at a few places in York, including The Grand and when I return I'll be coming back here.

We were given Room 12 which is situated in the courtyard and we expected it to be a little noisy whilst the pub was open. We were not prepared for exactly how noisy it was we had to listen to loud conversations and people leaning up right next to our front door. We tried to drown out the noise with the TV but the signal was poor and we eventually gave up. I looked at getting another hotel as it was that bad,we realised it was not going to be a relaxing break and the price we paid over £360 for 2 nights I don't think it unreasonable to be able to relax in your room. The room was clean if a little tired a lick of paint is needed as are new tiles on the bathroom floor which are broken and sharp in places. The food in the restaurant was good and the inn itself is full of character but for the price I don't recommend the room that we stayed in.

History at it's finest

Loved staying in such an old building that is full of character! The location is perfect. It's a busy pub with a great heated court yard. The room was great, beds are super comfy, however it was very hot and it would have been good to have a bottle of water in the room. I was also woken at 6am by the hoovering of the pub downstairs (stayed on the 1st floor). Breakfast was good and the staff were all friendly. Would defiantly recommend if you're looking for somewhere magical to stay in York 😀

Stay in a part of History.

If you want an un-historic, un-genuine and un-quirky stay in a hotel only several years old,then there’s a bland chain-hotel somewhere for you. Otherwise,come to this hotel. Yes,it has several “wonky stairs” (quoting a previous reviewer )and yes,it has signs of age in places,and yes, it’s not laid out in geometric angles, but that’s the charm of this type of hotel. It’s hundreds of years old,for goodness sake!! Hundreds! You’re part of history! The staff were very welcoming,friendly and accommodating. We had a need for left luggage,late checkout,and an ill friend who needed some extra attention- No Problem. The pies in the restaurant are delicious. The breakfast was all we wanted. The hotel is an easy walk to the train or taxi rank. It’s also very convenient for Minster and the beautiful old streets nearby. I’ve visited the restaurant and now the hotel. All four of us visitors loved it. It’s a fantastic experience and reasonably priced.

Very very central

Check in nightmare. Bottom of stairs outside very very busy pub toilets on way to restaurant! Took ages lots of moving bags. Breakfast ok.... apart from they bring your hot food.... THEN ask if you want toast. Then go and make it. So if you wait everything is cold.

One of the worst places I've ever stayed! Arriving there and the location was great, a couple minutes walk from York Minster, but that's pretty much where the highlights end. Going in you have to go straight through the small pub, everything felt really cramped. As soon as we went in, we knew we wouldn't be staying long! The room we were in was right next to the courtyard, so we heard everyone outside drinking, smoking, listening to music up until 12am when the bell for last orders rang. Safe to say, we didn't get much sleep that night! Not to mention the room was absolutely boiling, far too hot! Breakfast was also bad, really awkward with everyone who stayed the night in one room, with the radio on really quiet. The food tasted as bad as it looked, I thought the salmon was out of date! And it was so salty. We checked out early (was originally supposed to be there for 2 nights) and found somewhere else - much better! And we couldn't leave quick enough. It nearly ruined our weekend away, but thankfully we were able to leave early. I definitely wouldn't recommend staying here. And most other reviews say the food is bad, and the prices of drinks too. The history is interesting and the only thing it has going for it, otherwise avoid at all costs!
