Great short stay

Great location just a short walk to York's historic centre - perfect for exploring the Shambles, the Minster, and other attractions. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, making for a relaxing short stay.

Perfect location

Location was amazing, view and parking facilities brilliant, room was clean although the bathroom was a little tired and in need of a refurbishment
Jack, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice location next to the river and shopping. A boat tour is nearby. Room was comfy, but the bed mattress was a bit too firm for my liking. Good for 2 or 3 nights.
Gregory, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely City Break

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.
Lauren, 2-night trip

Great location, walkable to everything. Room is little bit outdated.

Family trip

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.
Helena, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Superb location

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.
