Great location, easy walkable access to most tourist highlights in York. Hotel was clean and safe but rooms were very warm even when using the fan. Overall though, good value for money.

Nice location and friendly staff. Breakfast was good. The “handicapped” elevator from the street level to the front desk did not appear to work. We saw several people with canes and walkers struggling with the stairs.

Useless, terrible wifi. Well known by staff when issue brought up (“yeah we know”) but apparently not important to owners. Some moderately effective wifi is no longer a luxury IMO, rather a necessity, especially for foreign tourists.

It is close to river, city center lots of sight seeing spots. I live in the room with good river view. Price of hotel car parking is reasonable but the numbers of space are limited. Website of hotel is not informative, e.g. without route map to hotel, details of rooms etc.

The room we received was located along a busy street, causing the window to rattle and disturb our sleep every time a vehicle passed by during the night. Although the parking facilities were understandably closed due to flooding, the cost of the discounted alternative parking was higher than the price initially agreed upon at the time of booking. This was observed even though non-discounted parking options were available during our stay. On certain occasions, the staff behaved in an unfriendly manner, though I wouldn't say this was the case with everyone there. The breakfast offered was disappointing, with a fee that did not reflect its quality. Having stayed here multiple times in the past, we have decided not to return.

Dear Simon,We are sorry to hear you were disappointing with your stay. Unfortunately, we cannot help the sound of the surroundings being a city centre hotel. The NCP prices do vary depending on the amount of time spent in there; our discount voucher knocks approx 30% off the total price for the time spent in there, so we cannot tell what the exact price is. I am sorry you found our staff to be unfriendly - we receive many comments on how hospitable our staff are across all departments so I am sorry to hear your experience did not reflect this. We hope you reconsider coming to stay with us again so we can improve your experience in the future.Kind Regards

Good value as a mid-week get-away. We had a pleasant view over the river. Room was fine, but the lighting was a bit strange as two of the side lights were linked to the rather harsh ceiling light. No coffee pod machine at this price, but Yorkshire tea, of course!

I really enjoyed the room, it was fresh, clean and spacious and the location to the city centre was great, it made for a great base near the Viking Festival, to return to easily, to have a break and rest. I found the staff really friendly and knowledgeable to help with good places to try. The only downside was hearing talking from the from the guests in the room next to me, and the Hotel Wi-Fi was good until it was heavily used at peak time, which caused latency. I would definitely stay here again though

Lovely staff, fantastic location but let down by lack of attention to the small details, like ensuring the lighting in the bathroom is actually bright enough to see and the extractor works so that the mirror is clear enough to shave with. Unfortunate.

Absolutely fine, would stay again.
Friendly welcome, efficient and helpful reception. Room clean, big velux style window so good light which is unusual for hotels in my experience. The only thing I didn’t like was the shower curtain over the bath, it was clean but a screen would be better. The extra parking charge is expensive but it’s so convenient I paid it happily.
