I can only review our room named The Shambles. It was small, located in the roof space so a lot of the room had the roof slope cutting off the space available. There was tea and coffee provided but only 5 teabags on day 1 & 4 on day 2 also a minimal supply of uht milk cartons. The unit these were situated on was about 40cm high so you had to sit to brew up or bend over a long way. A small kettle took about 10mins to boil 2 cups worth of water There was one small low down bedroom type chair for two of us. The bathroom door was a sliding door with no rail at the bottom so it was impossible to open and close without it banging into the frame. The biggest problem for us was that the walls are very thin and the people in the two neighbouring rooms could be heard when going about their normal business. They disturbed us and I am sure we disturbed them. The bed and pillows were clean and comfortable. The breakfast is tasty but not plentiful, my portion of mushrooms consisted of one mushroom about 5cm in diameter, on the second day it consisted of two mushrooms! There is one DIY domestic toaster for up to 14 people! There is a full page, in great detail, in the guest information book informing guests how much they will charged if they damage anything! The guest house is well located for York's attractions being about ten minutes walk from the centre. All the staff were very friendly and helpful it is clean and warm, but it is not a cheap place, I would expect more for the money paid.

We had a lovely stay here. The staff were wonderful and accommating, gave us tips on places and restaurants to go to. Its only a short walk to the centre and to the riverside - extremely convenient. Breakfast was lovely with plenty of options and fresh bread each morning - 3 different kinds! Downsides - The walls were thin and on our last night we could hear the room next to us snoring. Also we had a problem with parking where all spaces were taken due to an event so we had to drive out of the centre to a pub nearby for a couple hours and wait and hope there was space when we got back which luckily there was 1 space. Overall a wondeful stay and we will be back.

Lovely little 2 night stay

Lovely location lovely room we stayed in. The pillows was slightly hard and the mattress was hard as well. Nice breakfast choice although on the full English there was no hash brown. This would have been a good point for me. Rooms are very hollow can hear everything from the next rooms. Lovely people very friendly and very polite.

Very friendly helpful staff and instructions before arrival and during my stay. Clean and tidy room. Walls not sound proof so spent the night listening to a neighbour snoring unfortunately but very comfortable bed. Carpet was vacuumed but could do with a shampoo. Excellent breakfast. Tea and coffee making facilities and nice toiletries. Thank you.

Excellen location to explore York on foot.

Enjoyed our stay at St Raphael Guest House. Very well located ...just a 7 - 8 minute walk to York Minster or York Museum or the theatre. Another few minutes and you are in the heart of the city. Only small gripe...shower enclosure is very small and a bit cramped. Otherwise can highly recommend.
