8/10 Good

DoubleTree by Hilton York

8/10 Good

"I didnt like where my room was. Would have preferred to be in main part of hotel. Felt too nervous to have window open as people walking past our window"

Novotel York Centre

10/10 Excellent

"An ideal location to explore York. It's location is set off the inner ring road and close to the river. It is within easy walking distance of the city centre, shops and historic sites. The river is near by and would recommend taking this pleasant walk into the city."

The Grand, York

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful top-notch property in York. Centrally located a 4 minute walk from the train station and 8/9 minute walk to York Minster and old town York. Plenty of stores and eating facilities all within walking distance. The hotel itself and attentive staff plus very spacious and well appointed rooms made our stay a real pleasure. Definitely a 5 star plus!!"

Malmaison York

8/10 Good

"Lovely huge room and very comfortable bed. Breakfast was a bit of a shambles as it was so busy. The staff were showing the stress and when we were taken to our table the cutlery was chucked on a a dirty table. Had to wait 30 minutes to order and then another 15 minutes for the food to arrive. The saving grace was that the food was excellent and piping hot."
