The Hotel is lovely when you drive in although it is easy to miss the entrance. Our room was in the Coach House and was clean but a little dated. The Spa is lovely and clean but lacks beds for the amount of people that visit it, and the changing rooms lack personal changing lockers. The Sauna and the steam room are not very hot but again they were nice and clean and you can hire a robe, towel and slippers for £10 per person for the duration of your stay. Although we did not get a treatment they were reasonably priced. The Fat Abbot attached to the hotel is lovely but a tad expensive £9.50 for a wine. The bar staff are not very friendly and lack a smile or conversation. We had to book our table for the evening meal which was fine and the meal was delicious. On our 2nd night we opted for some light bites of a cheese board but was told it was a special the night before so we could not have it and the waiter would not check if it was possible, we then opted for pizza and was told they had no dough we then asked for some olives and garlic bread again we were told this was not available this was at 7.30. Breakfast was ok and self service but the staff did not tell us this just told us to sit where we wanted again not much in the way of communication or smiles from any of the waiters. The hotel is a 20 minute drive form York City Centre and cost just £10 with UBER. Overall the stay was pleasant but I think the staff should be a bit more welcoming and smile a bit more.

Nice hotel could do with bit of upgrade in areas

We booked a very last minute stay here. The drive into hotel is lovely and from the outside a lot of character. Inside main hotel was modernly decorated and still had character. We had a room in the coach house which is in the next building to the hotel. The room was quite dated compared to main hotel. Good sized room. A little dusty in areas. Plenty room for clothes. Had hair dryer and ironing board along with tea/coffee facilities. Bathroom very dated needs done up. Shower over bath. Bath had a decent sized crack in the top end, couple tiles cracked. Fan didn’t work. Loo brush needed changed. Had Elemis products. No shower cap. Good decent sized towels!! The main thing in the coach house is the main door doesn’t get locked, be better if there was a card entry system. Staff don’t have a set uniform to wear, be better if you could tell who was who. Good choice for breakfast continental and cooked, self service. Had meal in fat abbot next door which is restaurant on site. Meal was lovely. Spa area - decent sized pool, nice jacuzzi and sauna/steam rooms. Not enough seating in the pool area. And I did see a few ants on the floor!!! Didn’t manage to get a treatment as fully booked. Overall a nice hotel could be a little better if upgraded to a higher standard. Wouldn’t say 4 * as been in other hotels that offer that bit more.

Worth a stay

The hotel common areas are great, the gym was well equipped, comfy beds, good shower, and the breakfast was really good. Nice grounds as well - the only downside was decor of the rooms, while absolutely comfortable and well equipped, the style feels slightly dated.
