Top York St. John University Hotel Reviews

Dean Court Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were very welcoming. Breakfast was very good. Wonderful location."

The Churchill Hotel

8/10 Good

"A great place to stay for a trip to York. Only a 15 minute walk from the centre of York. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Room was nice, clean and well-appointed. Parking at £18 per night felt a little expensive but we were able to drop our car ahead of checking in so made the most of our parking charge! Would recommend a stay at the Churchill."

Novotel York Centre

8/10 Good

"Bathroom: Shower worked intermitantly, at best! Toilet wouldn’t flush. Washbasin was just a trickle of water."

Guy Fawkes Inn, BW Premier Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in centre of York.Staff very friendly and courteous. Fantastic breakfast and good beers."

DoubleTree by Hilton York

8/10 Good

"We had a superior room was a very quiet room/stay, the bed was comfortable and had a good sleep. Bathroom was ok not much room to sit on toilet as squeezed in to the corner of the room right next to the door. The shower screen had a gap between the glass so water would leak on to the floor also mould on the tiles and ceiling as fan did not work. All of the above Reported to reception when leaving. This didn’t affect our stay would stay there again. Breakfast had a good selection but one coffee machine was not great as there was always a long queue. The Hotel was in a great position central to everything. 7/10 rating."
