Absolutely fantastic ! Location is brilliant for exploring York The accommodation was excellent, exceptionally clean and welcoming, with plenty of room to feel comfortable after a busy sightseeing day in York The breakfast was delicious and plenty of it, and nothing was to much trouble for our host Darren Not only was there complimentary tea/coffee in the rooms but everyday there was a little treat left in the room in the form of a scrumptious homemade mince pie, a cookie and a piece of flapjack for each of us Thankyou Darren for welcoming us into your home, and making our visit to York memorable ##### Julie Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew Nov 20, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A hidden gem. From the moment you arrive everything is fantastic. Very welcoming and friendly. Our bedroom was large and very comfortable with everything you need including some home baking. Everywhere is spotlessly clean. Pre order breakfast the evening before and it's freshly prepared and piping hot the next morning. Our first visit but hopefully not our last. Thank you very much. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue Oct 30, 2021 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Sue Stayed 1 night in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Denise Oct 29, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Five star Both my daughter and I are carers and so this was a precious few days stay at Alcuin Lodge. All the more important to us that the service, from booking through to departure, was faultless and it was 😁. Darren was very welcoming throughout and, for anyone concerned about Covid safety, the measures in place made us feel secure. The guesthouse has free permit parking close by and is conveniently located for getting into the centre of York. Our twin room was comfortable, quiet and spotless. Tea, coffee and home baking were provided on arrival and replenished on our second day. At present breakfast is ordered via an email link and has to be completed before 7pm on the evening before. This is a Covid measure and works very well. Breakfast was served between 8-8.45am and was freshly cooked and delicious. We were truly made to feel welcome and loved our chats with Darren at breakfast and at other times during our stay too. If we can we will certainly visit again and we are happy to highly recommend 😁 ##### Denise Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patrick Oct 28, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Patrick Stayed 1 night in Oct 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Charming A brief stay so unable to fully enjoy everything on offer but would be perfect for a weekend away. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicola Sep 19, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities A beautiful Victorian house renovated to the very highest of standards spotlessly clean very comfortable bed gorgeous shower room TV worked I have to say it was worth it still for a b&b was more than I really wanted to pay but it was stunning and the breakfast was delicious thank you Darren ##### Nicola Stayed 1 night in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Iain Sep 17, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities there was nothing to dislike very friendly, made to feel very welcome, rooms were spotless,walking distance to city center we would recommend this hotel. ##### Iain Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely B&B in York Alcuin Lodge is perfectly situated, ten minutes walk to either the station or into the centre of York, in a quiet suburban area. Darren made us very welcome, nothing was too much trouble. Everything was immaculate and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was pre booked, there was a good choice and everything was freshly cooked. There were also snacks available from the "tuck shop" in the evening. I would have no hesitation in recommending this place, and I hope to visit again in the future. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 2, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### HANNAH Jul 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Excellent location in York Darren was very helpful and careful due to ongoing virus situation. ##### HANNAH Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### I Jul 12, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### I Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela Jun 1, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Highly recommended Couldn’t fault a thing Darren is the best host knowing how much to chat and gives you space.

Darren was a super host who had thought through extra procedures for Covid. This included room keys and car pass in a sanitised tray, everyone was asked to clean their hands before using the stairway and breakfast room and each table had allocated cutlery and condiments. Darren also provided suggestions for where to eat and we mustn't forget the home baking on our tea tray each day! We highly recommend staying here. ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Bailey's Hotel London Kensington](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Baileys-Hotel-London.h523223.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Horseguards, London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Royal-Horseguards.h25926.Hotel-Information) > > [The Clermont London, Charing Cross](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Clermont-London.h5169.Hotel-Information) > > [The Clermont London, Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Clermont-London.h10939.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Park-Plaza-Westminster-Bridge-London.h3113039.Hotel-Information) > > [The May Fair, A Radisson Collection Hotel, Mayfair London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-May-Fair.h7606.Hotel-Information) > > [The Grand, York](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-The-Grand.h3697588.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza County Hall London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Park-Plaza-County-Hall-London.h1742184.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Terminal 2 and 3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-London-Heathrow-Terminal-2-And-3.h33088275.Hotel-Information) > > [The Savoy](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Savoy.h27158.Hotel-Information) > > [St Martins Lane London, a Morgans Originals hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-St-Martins-Lane-London.h470865.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel York](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-York-City-Center.h1005.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal National Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Royal-National-Hotel.h55001.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal Hotel London City - Tower of London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-London-City-Tower-Hill.h530052.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westminster London, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Westminster-London.h914179.Hotel-Information) > > [The Landmark London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Landmark-London.h438653.Hotel-Information) > > [Strand Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Strand-Palace-Hotel.h179.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Containers London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Sea-Containers-London.h8466215.Hotel-Information) > > [citizenM Tower of London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-CitizenM-Tower-Of-London.h14736047.Hotel-Information) > > [The Langham, London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Langham.h22099.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tower Hotel, by Thistle](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Tower-Hotel.h2479.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London - Kensington High St. by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Kensington-High-St.h9789.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza Victoria London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Park-Plaza-Victoria-London.h801796.Hotel-Information) > > [Zedwell Piccadilly Circus](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Zedwell-Piccadilly-Trocadero.h42297074.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Ritz-London.h28146.Hotel-Information) > > [President Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-President-Hotel.h54995.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza London Riverbank](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Park-Plaza-London-Riverbank.h1183908.Hotel-Information) > > [Bedford Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Bedford.h54993.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Fitzroy London by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Kimpton-Fitzroy-London.h21514.Hotel-Information)
