Excellent city centre hotel

Booked a 1 night stay over in York on our way to Pendle, we had room 3 on the lower level. Getting a large suitcase down the 2 flights of stairs is a bit of a challenge but the room itself was well equipped, clean, lovely powerful shower, comfy bed and coffee making facilities. Perfect for what we wanted Check in was available when we turned up early which was a nice surprise. Very quiet with it being tucked away between shops.

When we first arrived, I thought "oh, no". Lobby is dark, entire place is tucked away, no A/C, and no lift. We had to haul our luggage up 37 steps of a NARROW, spiral staircase. Our room was clean and adequate, and actually had the biggest, nicest, newest shower of anyplace we've stayed so far. (4th hotel of this trip) There was a fan in the room, and they brought a second one upon our request. I'll have to admit, that even in August, with the window open and the fans, we were COMPLETELY comfortable and slept well. The location, right in the city center is very convenient. So, despite my initial skepticism, this hotel was completely satisfactory and a good value.

The location was excellent and unique, the room was well furnished and charming- however the person that checked us in was rude and we felt very unwelcome. The hotel runs hot..no A/C so whilst they provided a fan the room was hot and stuffy. There was noisy airvent in the bathroom that refused to shut off making for a very noisy stay. They had warned us of construction noise in the morning so we had expected that. The email communications were more friendly than the staff.

Absolute disgrace to Yorks other wonderful hotels !! Dated, dirty, do not address complaints, and request for owner contact. Appeared to be black mould ariynd window- gealth hazard!! Needs to close and total refurbishment. (Full review on trip advisor) I think Expedia shiukd remive this hotel from its site - I frequently book hiteks via Expedia and bever had a bad experience, but thus hitel should not be promoted by Expedia as it reflects badly on them. Expedia dud iffer full refund if hitel agreed with room state - byt tgey were not going to do this - obviously inly interested in taking your money and not providing even a basic clean entry level hotel. Extremely disappointing and frustrating experience- spend your money at one if the many lovely York hotels

Location was great, also the theme of the hotel with the artwork on the walls in the room was very nice, our room was at the front of the hotel room 8 and it was quite loud with the windows open, especially when the bin men came and delivery of beer kegs to other properties, the fan in the room was a nice touch as it was quite warm

Parking is approximately 10-12 minutes away and £25 for 24 hour stay. Staff were really nice and helpful. As the building is the old court, the windows are different sizes and the blinds difficult to block out daylight. No air conditioning. Nice molton brown products in bathroom

Great place and location

The location is really cool and in the right area for the visit. This is a historical site, so not the most up to date amenities. No room service or food. No air conditioning and it was fairly hot while we were there.
