Refreshed front of house, rooms need the same

Good check-in process, the hotel front of house areas have had a refresh and the hotel is now looking more contemporary. Unfortunately, the bedrooms need the same attention as they are tired and the bathroom in my room was very small.

Stayed one night as a base to see York, which is about 40 minutes stroll away. Good functional chain hotel, everything works but no character. The food was good but the beer choice was very limited.

Very friendly staff. Rooms nice, beds really comfortable. Lovely breakfast area and lounge. Two pubs across the road as a change for evening meals as only booked B&B. We were there on a very hot week but had aircon in rooms. Large free car park which is a bonus round York. Bus services along the main road are frequent. No4 from outside Cross Keys pub takes you into centre which is only 1 and half miles. Would definitely stay again if visiting York.

This is supposed to be a 4 star hotel. I've stayed in cleaner 2 star hotels that deserved more. The room was old and tired looking. Under the bed wasn't clean(I discovered this when I picked up something I dropped). The air con only worked intermittently, and the window could not be opened. It was also noisy, especially at night. It sounded like footsteps and doors echoing in a stairwell. The options on the menus were extremely limited for someone who has specific dietary requirements. If you had more than soya milk as a milk substitute, I may have had breakfast there. I will not be using Holiday Inn anywhere again.
