Great but quite a walk to (paid) parking.

The hotel was beautiful and the staff catered to our every need, however, I have recently had surgery and searched for a hotel with parking. The Galtres showed up and we book but the car park was 8 minutes walk away and the parking was over £30 for the night. Unfortunately, I was with my mother who has an arm injury and so we had to carry our bags this distance. Normally it would not have been an issue but I was very unwell upon arrival as the bag was not on wheels and I had my stitches taken out that morning. I would suggest not advertising the hotel to have parking, but cannot fault the hotel for any other reason. We would come back to stay in the future (in full health or bring a smaller bag!)

Located in a very beautiful location within walking distance of several points of interest, such as The Shambles, York Minster, the City Walls, bars, and restaurants. The breakfast served in the morning is truly exquisite. The room and the hotel in general seemed very clean, in excellent condition despite being an old building, and safe. The attention and friendliness of the front desk and breakfast staff were exceptional!

I was super impressed with this hotel. It couldn’t have been more central. I was a bit cobwebby but with it being high ceiling and an old building, it’s to be expected. The room was cosy and breakfast was stunning. Thank you, would def stay here again!

The hotel is in an amazing location in York, close to Yorkminister cathedral and in the midst of the old city. The staff are friendly and helpful. We were pleased to get early check-in as our room was ready. The breakfast is excellent with lots of choice. Be aware that the hotel does not have air conditioning - that was the only downside for us.

DO NOT stay at this property if you want to sleep past 4.50 am. Road noise/bucket carts/deliveries commenced at 4.50 am, single glazed windows (I understand it’s a conservation area) do not keep out a conversation far less lorry engines and sounds of loading or unloading.
