It was our family’s first time visiting York, and the whole experience was truly memorable. The guest house was spotless, tidy, and very comfortable. The location was perfect and easy to find, plus it’s just a short drive to the town centre, which made exploring York super convenient. The price was very affordable too, so it’s great value for money. The staff were so friendly and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. We loved every bit of our stay and can’t wait to come back again.

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 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Roger Jun 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities There's hardly any reference to parking space!!!!...I drove 6 hours through heavy congestion and found a place in the Guest Houses' designated space and then discovered that guests have to pay for that..and as nobody was around on site to ask how to pay was unsure if i would get a fine..so I found myself creeping out at 3.45 a.m. to put my car in a free overnight car park not 5 minutes walk from the place!!! 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 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth Sep 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Comfortable room, really ##### Elizabeth Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Yi May 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Safe and clean hotel with friendly staff. ##### Yi Stayed 1 night in May 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Freda May 26, 2025 Fastest from railway station ##### Freda Stayed 1 night in May 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Kenneth Jun 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Would have been much better if some sort of breakfast was on offer.

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 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dalton Nov 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was good, i had a pleasant night ##### Dalton Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Holmwood House Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-Holmwood-House-Hotel.h1381459.Hotel-Information) > - [City Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-City-Guest-House.h4464528.Hotel-Information) > - [ Executive Apartments in Central London Euston FREE WiFi by City Stay Aparts](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Central-1-Beds-Apts-By-City-Stay-London.h35891691.Hotel-Information) > - [Clarence Garden House](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-Clarence-Garden-House.h42265232.Hotel-Information) > - [Saxon House Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-Saxon-House-Apartments.h48208819.Hotel-Information) > - [The Marble Arch Hotel, by Thistle](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Amba-Hotel-Marble-Arch.h8704.Hotel-Information) > - [High Street Kensington Apartments ](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-High-Street-Kensington-Apartments.h23504205.Hotel-Information) > - [Zedwell Piccadilly Circus](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Zedwell-Piccadilly-Trocadero.h42297074.Hotel-Information) > - [Castle Hotel Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Windsor-Hotels-Castle-Hotel-Windsor-MGallery.h16500.Hotel-Information) > - [The Dorchester](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Dorchester-Dorchester-Collection.h21208.Hotel-Information) > - [Radisson Blu Hotel, London Bond Street](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h24180.Hotel-Information) > - [Ruby Lucy Hotel London by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ruby-Lucy.h42041893.Hotel-Information) > - [Moxy Southampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Southampton-Hotels-Moxy-By-Marriott-Southampton.h42101688.Hotel-Information) > - [Assembly Leicester Square](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Assembly-Hotel-London.h24000156.Hotel-Information) > - [Yotel London City](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-YOTEL-London-Clerkenwell.h48296903.Hotel-Information) > - [Radisson Blu Hotel, London Mercer Street](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h7989.Hotel-Information) > - [The Corner London City](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Qbic-Hotel-London-City.h6706032.Hotel-Information) > - [Radisson Blu Hotel, London Euston Square](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Grafton-Hotel.h608.Hotel-Information) > - [Hub By Premier Inn London City Bank](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-HUB-BY-Premier-INN-London.h40112162.Hotel-Information) > - [Hub By Premier Inn London King's Cross](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-HUB-BY-Premier-INN-London-Kings-Crosse.h40112027.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) > - [Radisson RED Liverpool](https://www.expedia.ca/Liverpool-Hotels-Radisson-Red-Hotel.h82985495.Hotel-Information) > - [No.1 by GuestHouse, York](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-The-Grange-Hotel.h11750.Hotel-Information) > - [The Mayfair Townhouse](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Mayfair-Townhouse.h57972013.Hotel-Information) > - [Great Scotland Yard Hotel, part of Hyatt](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-GREAT-SCOTLAND-YARD.h38904937.Hotel-Information) > - [Bedford Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Bedford.h54993.Hotel-Information) > - [ STG Hotel London Oxford Street](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-St-Giles-Hotel-London.h614.Hotel-Information) > - [Jorvik House](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-Jorvik-House.h2471799.Hotel-Information) > - [Brown's Hotel, a Rocco Forte Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Rocco-Forte-Browns-Hotel.h438636.Hotel-Information)
