10/10

We had a river view during our weekend stay, and it was perfect. The hotel is a little dated and could do with some updates, but aside from that it is clean, tidy and quiet. As the hotel is just over the river from the main centre, it meant you were able to have a good nights sleep. The location is perfect with it being minutes away from the centre. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Location was amazing, view and parking facilities brilliant, room was clean although the bathroom was a little tired and in need of a refurbishment

Breakfast was the worst buffet I've had this year. Deep-fried oil-filled mushrooms, cheap sausage and tasteless scrambled eggs. Lacking in quality sums up the whole hotel. On the plus side, good location in central York

The hotel is a lovely gem in the city centre. Close to everything. Hotel staff were polite, courteous and couldn’t do any more to make our experience better. Reviews were accurate and we would definitely stay here again.

Very nice area and very close to main things in york, easily walkable. We were able to get underground parking a bit small but it works. Bed was not comfortable though.

10/10

The hotel was superbly located just over the bridge from most things but at most a few minutes walk to everything you would want to do. Excellent filling breakfast each morning and the hotel staff were very helpful and polite. We were lucky enough to have a river view. It was lovely listening to the boats in the evening and the early morning rowers.

Warm welcome on reception. Clean, comfortable rooms, delicious evening meal and breakfast

6/10

It’s a very dated hotel. The bedroom was bare with very plain furnishings. If you’re looking for a place that feels special, this isn’t it. However, if all you want is a room (that doubles sauna) then it’s ok. But city centre prices, so ok but pricey Very little in the way of tea and coffee (instant only and a kettle).

We went to York for a birthday weekend. The location is perfect. A 10 min walk from the train station and very central. We paid for the upgrade to get river views and was worth the extra money. The bed was super comfortable and the staff excellent. Breakfast was good
