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.

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.

The hotel boasts a charming, historic setting with a generally pleasant and cosy atmosphere. While the cleanliness was adequate, our room did not align with the online photographs. You would expect for £428 for two nights, that a complimentary breakfast would be included, this was not the case which was a notable disappointment. The staff provided satisfactory service, though not exceptional. Overall, the experience did not fully meet the expectations typically associated with a 4-star establishment. Additionally, guests should be aware that food and beverage prices within the hotel are quite high. The staff recommended parking at Marygate and Bootham Gate, which would have amounted to £125 for two nights. However, we independently found parking through the JustPark app for £40, resulting in significant savings. I was expecting much better. The aesthetics were brilliant but everything else was okay at best.

Super central location, charming rooms

Really central location, lovely and kind staff, and a special place to stay! (Old, slanty floors and wavy glass windows provide charm!) We loved how close the hotel was to all the attractions, and the history of the location made it feel extra special!

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 😀
