Excellent location along the river and close to all of the attractions and shopping. Food was not the greatest but the room was very comfortable and large.
I love York! The hotel is a short walk from York Station and walkable distance to all the main attractions in York. Staff were pleasant and rooms wre spacious enough for luggage. Overall lovely stay and would definitely return again
The Staff are the best feature of this hotel, they really can’t do enough for you. They are lovely. Without their amazing staff this would be an ok hotel - the staff take it up several notches to a great hotel.
Enjoyed our 3 night stay, had a room with a view of the river bridges and minster. 15 minutes tops walk from the station to the hotel, so handy, same to walk to the centre of the city, lots of choices of food and bars in the evening. Breakfast was really enjoyable and the staff were on top of organisation and maintaining the food on offer, we'd happily return, thank you
This was our first time staying in York. The room was average size. The food was good - not the best since it had limited varieties of food. Staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was close to many places.
Room was great, close location to centre and beautiful by the river. Did not like breakfast and only had one of the two I paid for but there are other locations near by for breakfast.
The Hotel Staff are very friendly, kind and helpful and welcoming.
The staff also in the Restaurant are helpful friendly kind and welcoming.
The Hotel is extremely clean and well maintained.
The its next to river so you get a lovely view either from a room or outside.
Definitely be going there again soon

Excellent location.
Comfortable bed.
Helpful and friendly staff.
Everything was fine. The location was very good for accessing the visitor areas of the city.
The staff was professional although not overly friendly. The buffet was nice.
