For a hotel that gets so many 10/10 reviews I am at a loss to understand why it gets perfect scores unless they are fake reviews. We stayed in room 63, a worn out room with an old bed, dirty carpet, doors patched with the wrong colour paint, fan that never switched off in the bathroom etc. It's up a narrow staircase at the back of the hotel with no lift access. I can only conclude that the main part of the hotel has been modernized and therefore warrant full marks OR the reviews are fake. Either way, avoid. Location is great. Hotel has no A/C so you have to use a fan and open the window - prepare to be woken by the bin collection very early morning.

Rm64 was 33 steep & narrow stairs up & down. I’m 78 & it was wearying. The internet connection was not secure & my service provider would not let me receive or send email. Felt like I was staying in the servants quarters. Ideal location just next to the Minster.

The hotel is in an excellent location with all the amenities and attractions within walking distance. The staff are friendly and efficient and we’re all willing to do that extra bit to make our stay worthwhile The hotel’s parking arrangements are excellent, especially for a hotel right in the city centre.The room itself was clean and spacious with everything you would expect. The food was excellent- nothing extraordinary - but very well cooked.

Great location across the street from York Minster. Lots of dining options nearby. Unless you book a suite, this is a typical European- style hotel with very small rooms. Bed was not comfortable and the carpeting was dirty. Someone used a key card to open our room door while we were inside and left when we acknowledged our presence. Reported incident to front desk. Upon check out, front desk said no one from housekeeping said it was them. That is concerning. Hotel could definitely use a facelift. But then again, it’s all about location, location, location.

I was with a young friend and her 3-year-old boy. The waiters were really sweet with him bringing him a folder with colouring games to play and a fox mask. One waiter brought him extra strawberries. They all made a fuss of him which was much appreciated. We had very good service too! And enjoyed our breakfasts and dinner. We just had one night with you. I chose you for your brilliant site opposite the Minster and was not disappointed!

Hotel is in a fantastic location for the Minster and other city attractions. Our room was lovely, comfy, clean and lots of character. The only issue was the temperature and lack of air con. The hotel have kindly put one unit and a cool air blower in the room which was great during the day but too loud for sleeping so turned off at night. Slept with the windows open so sleep was disrupted due to city noise. Other than that great stay. Staff very helpful and polite.
