Great two nights stay at Diamond Guesthouse on Bishopthorpe road. Located in a nice part of York, and very close to the centre of the city. Would definitely recommend it, especially for a family looking for a budget weekend break. ##### Eryk Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Maria Dec 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good area and value for money Family run venue close to nice cafes and bars on Bishopthorpe Road. Good value for money, even at times of the year when some venues put their prices extortionately. ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Jan 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice, comfortable room. Nice, comfortable room.

Stayed in better, stayed in worse. It’s an old building so it feels like it needs a refurb but limited in what you can do without spending mega bucks! Self checkin was ok. Not happy had to pay £7pn for parking.

Very bad!!! Also, checking in at 7.45pm there was nobody there to let me in and I panicked as I had to wait 5 minutes for a reply...but the woman was very kind and explained how to get in etc. The room was lovely and clean and there was plenty of tea and coffee to drink. There should be a plug next to the bed to charge the phone too. Shower was excellent! Bed was excellent too! ##### Roger Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lee Jul 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service I couldn't fault the guest house on it's service, location and the room, although I was disappointed with two things. Firstly, the check in. As I was checking in late, the hosts had been really kind and contacted me, who then provided me the self-check in codes. Upon checking in, I can then use an electronic card to replace the codes when entering the guest house and my room. The code provided didn't work. Luckily two guests came back at the same time when I was locked out outside and on the phone with the host, who kindly helped me and ensured I got to my room. I then went back out to get food. On return, the electronic card did not work. Called the host again, who then provided the electronic code for the entrance again. That's when we found that the code provided earlier was incorrect. There was a later message to my phone to say the code was incorrect though. So overall, I had a card which did not function properly. When I finally got to bed, there was a constant noise coming from somewhere within the building. It was like a boiler or generator kind of motor engine sound. Even with my ear plugs on (which a guest shouldn't be wearing these to sleep), I was still able to hear it. It was still on when I left next morning. Needless to say, I didn't sleep well. The lack of parking was mentioned on booking. The hosts allow guests to park on their designated parking space at a cost. Considering the parking fees elsewhere in city centre, it's only reasonable. ##### Lee Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Rory Sep 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Helpful staff member.

Hotel check in via phone but everything in easy mode. Room is nice and tidy, comfortable beds and room conditions except the shower facilities, some minor issues on the shower head holder but not affecting our stay. It is recommended if you don’t mind walking about 20mins from station. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e12a78e6-d1e0-4c6e-9cc3-1d2bef0c80a9-1745241419803.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bd9d5ab0-0b37-4f99-901f-2e18d8aaa36a-1745241416279.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5270b23e-2956-4ade-b0ed-e053386c4e00-1745241410467.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1fc2bad0-8c50-4d86-902c-fda3ba2a62aa-1745241418604.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Priscilla Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fanny Dec 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Muy linda la estancia y el staff súper amable ##### Fanny Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Brian Oct 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marion Sep 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Marion Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mavis Aug 16, 2024 ##### Mavis Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ## 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)
