"Perfect location for city centre York. Discount at the nearby Q Park, a few minutes walk away, as the hotel does not have parking facilities. Breakfast buffet was fantastic, however one day used dishes were not cleared away quickly enough for people going in for breakfast, so people had to clear tables themselves, however the other days this wasn’t an issue. Rooms clean and well equipped. All staff friendly and helpful. Would recommend this hotel."

"The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are huge and always so clean. The staff are wonderful. It’s been our favourite place to have a one night break and we’ve been back a few times. I’d say the only thing that will sadly mean we probably won’t now return is that the spa is an additional charge since it’s been renovated. It was always included in the hotel stay which was lovely…but it doesn’t feel worth paying on top of a high end room cost. A shame, but the hotel is lovely if you’re not bothered by the spa bit."
