Terrible experience
Arrived. Looked inviting. Got to room. Only half cleaned. Dirty coffee mug, & plastic cup in bathroom.
Carpet not hoovered.
Ceiling and wall in bedroom flaking paint and stains from light fitting.
Bathroom shower again poor decoration
Signs that hotel is being refreshed which I understand is working progress I’ve stayed in better accommodation at low end of stars/ratings.
To say this hotel has 9.4 in review which is why we chose this hotel it is a joke.
Breakfast was nice and dining room staff helpful & friendly.
Won’t be returning.

A lovely very clean hotel, staff very friendly. Extra tea and coffee etc was left outside our door for the next day if you didn’t want to be disturbed. Would have liked some hooks on wall for hanging coats as you go into small hallway leading to bedroom. Would definitely stay again

Little gem of a place
Booked at short notice, the room was ready early which was very handy. Room was comfortable and quiet, as we were to the rear overlooking the car park.
There was plenty of parking available behind electric gates so nice and secure. Situated a short walk from the Minster and the city centre, waking to the sound of the bells from across the city, this hotel was certainly a good find! Will stop here again.

Great place to stay
Very good location as you can do everything by foot once youre parked up. Extremely friendly reception staff upon arrival, more than happy to keep our bags and let us park even though it was hours before check-in. Lots of stairs upto our room on top floor but that was ok. Breakfast was sensational and lots of choice. Really pleased we chose to stay here. Had to pay £10 parking charge but if you book direct with the hotel you get to park for free.

Another good stay
Booked for a second stay at the minster hotel arrived early and managed to get our room, parking on site which is fantastic and only a short walk into York itself. Room was spacious and clean, my only complaint was the bed being a little too soft but that’s personal preference. Currently under going renovations but that didn’t impact our stay.
We booked for breakfast good choice of food on the menu and also continental.
Staff all friendly and helpful.

Good location
The location was perfect.12 mins walk from train station and 15 mins from the centre.
The room was alright, but could have been cleaner. Staff and services were good.

New years stay 2024
We had a fantastic time in york the hotel was situated close to the centre. Very well organised and all staff were very helpful friendly and polite. The room over looked the carpark and was very clean and warm. Breakfast was served in the dining room which is a great set up and the full english breakfast was excellent.

Could be better
In need of a makeover . Staff are lovely . Rooms tired , worn out and in some areas dirty . Need a deep clean .
Charged for parking even though i searched hotels with free parking .
Would not say £170 for a run down room particularly good value .
TV remote so worn you could not see what buttons are what .
Not sure we would stay again
