We really enjoyed our stay at The Farthings Guest House. Very nice people, great breakfast and the location in York is ideal - close to the attractions. All within easy walking distance. Our room was lovely and full of character with even a washbasin in the bedroom. However the shower and toilet were very small. A slightly larger person would struggle in the shower. Overall our stay was great. ##### Angela Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Pippa Feb 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice for a weekend stay Nice place, check in was easy with the lockbox and easily accessible. On street parking was fine, quite a few spaces and on a fairly quiet street. Room was good, slightly old fashioned/not the most modern, but the bed was comfortable and the room was a good size. The choice of teas/coffees and biscuits in the room was a nice touch. The shower was a bit weak. Breakfast was ok, nice choice although not the best pancakes ever. ##### Pippa Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles-Alexandre Oct 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Lovely room, well maintained and a very nice host.

Easy to see why this property gets such amazing reviews! Lots of parking right outside (ensure to request a virtual parking permit in advance) - fabulously clean, room with an incredibly comfy bed (really important to both of us due to back issues). Shared bathroom no issues, spotless and no waits even tho the property was fully booked. Breakfast absolutely fantastic, people lovely, and a very short walk to the city walls thru the park. We will be back - fabulous stay - thank you!! ##### Francesca Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sheila May 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Family-run guest house with a warm welcome. Easy check-in, clean and quiet room with a comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast. Walkable from the rail station and the centre of town - both about 15-20 minutes away along roads where I felt safe. I would happily stay there again. ##### Sheila Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William Apr 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Little gem I loved my time here. It's a very comfortable guest house, my room was small, but absolutely suited to my needs, larger rooms are available for more than 1 traveller, reasonablypriced, too. The staff is also small, but so helpful, friendy and polite. Its located in a lovely quiet area, with a reasonable walk to the city but manageable if you have no mobility issues, but taxis or buses are easy to come by. I enjoyed my weekend immensely and would encourage others to follow suit. \*\*\*\*\* ##### William Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### suzanne Apr 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed 2 nights in single room Arrived via Train, found Railway Station Excellent easy walking distance to Property & into York City. Hostess Helen was very warm & friendly. The Farthings was spotlessly clean. Single room, although small was very well equipped. Breakfast offered lots of choice, cooked with quality produce. If I stayed again in York, definitely would consider booking. ##### suzanne Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Darren Mar 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely cosy room in an immaculately kept property. Breakfast was outstanding too. 10 minute walk to the city centre yet nice and quiet. The perfect spot. Thank you for a wonderful weekend. ##### Darren Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good place with a few caveats Great breakfast and people. You need to ask for a parking space when you book.(not mentioned elsewhere) Also ask for heat to be turned on in your room. Or it's quite cold. Lastly an electrical shower no real pressure, it's a fiddle if you've never seen one before.Good food nearby as well ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dan Mar 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good location, just a short walk into the city. Nice breakfast and more than enough parking just outside. Only complaints were a very soft bed (personal preference) and a shower that lacked pressure. ##### Dan Stayed 3 nights in Mar 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)
