The location is excellent - you're so close to everything and the NCP car park is also super close. The room was very large with high ceilings and the bathroom(s) were also very nice. Having the opportunity to experience the spa was also really nice. The staff were really welcoming and friendly - there was nothing that was too much for them. The bar staff were also really lovely and knowledgeable. There's also aircon in the rooms which became very much appreciated; in warm weather, being on the second floor in an old building definitely gets warm!

I was travelling with my daughter who is a wheelchair user and has a portable hoist. When I arrived later than was expected, I was delighted to see a member of staff come and help me with all my luggage. My room was on the ground floor to accommodate the wheelchair and was a lovely spacious room. The beds had been positioned in a way I'd said earlier that would make my stay easier.

England Through The Ages
Although abounding in reminders of the past, York is very much a city for the here and now, with excellent shops, bars and restaurants, many along the River Ouse. Surrounding it are the medieval city walls – the longest and best preserved in England – and many of the gates that once allowed access to the city.
Walk the walls for wonderful views towards the city and towering York Minster. Standing proud on a hill, this cavernous church is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the 2nd highest position in the Church of England.
A little south is The Shambles, a narrow street with medieval buildings that now house quaint shops. Going further back in time is the Jorvik Centre, a fascinating museum showcasing the city’s Viking remains. You can even have a go at archaeology yourself at the DIG excavation pits, with replica finds from York’s Roman, Viking, medieval and Victorian eras.
Other York attractions include the National Railway Museum, home to the Flying Scotsman and Mallard trains. Around 30 minutes’ drive away is Castle Howard, a stately home with over 1000 acres of grounds.
Leeds-Bradford Airport is the nearest airport, and there is a great range of hotels, B&Bs and guest houses in York and the outskirts available on Booking.com.
York is bursting with fascinating places. There’s ancient architecture and historical interest around every corner and the main places to see are all to be found within a fairly compact, pedestrian friendly centre. A huge range of food and drink is on offer and the locals seem (justifiably) proud of their beautiful city and its rich history.

I would say to make sure you wear comfortable shoes because there are cobbled streets. It is quite crowded mid morning on so I would suggest walking around early if you want to get a good look. The shops will be open later...

Bit of both worlds - of course there is the modern with the usual shops but there is another side too.
The Shambles is like stepping back into Harry Potter and the ramparts which can be walked around are just fantastic. Then there is the Minster but do walk there if possible as parking pretty horrendous as you might expect.
Museums and galleries to explore and if your better half doesn't go for all the history stuff then leave them in the coffee houses and vast array of shops and meet back up later.
Easy to get around if you don't mind walking a bit and often uphill ( well slight inclines anyway). The bridges are lovely too and make easy muster points.
Have a drive around the surrounding countryside too - Beverley and Pocklington and Stamford Bridge - all easy driving and well worth that day out.
Just lovely.

York is an absolute must.
York is an absolute must. Out of 9 cities in the UK over 2.5 weeks, it is in our top 2-3. It is full of history, character, and uniqueness you will not find anywhere else. The Minster was our favorite (even over Westminster). We loved walking the cobble streets, the Shambles, shopping, pubs, restaurants, the Wall, learning of the significant pivotal history York was. We will be back!

A walk around the walls. The railway museum was brilliant.
A walk around the walls. The railway museum was brilliant. The Treasurer's House (NT) was very interesting with a lovely cafe and garden. Both cafe and garden can be visited without paying the entrance fee. Evensong at the Minster was lovely and the interior as beautiful as the outside. York is a great place to amble around, nice shops, lots of good places to eat and drink. Second visit to Little Italy and the food was delicious. Interesting architecture.
Extremely modern, comfortable, clean hotel, slap bang in the heart of York city centre. A Tesco Express is a very short walk from the hotel, which is very handy for snacks or drinks for the room, but the hotel does have these available if needs be. The room itself was so clean, and looked newly renovated. It included a mini fridge which was unexpected but a lovely touch. I slept so well on the bed, and the complimentary breakfast buffet in the morning was so impressive. They even had a waffle making station! Wow. I’ll be back.
Lovely room with an en suite bathroom. Comfortable rooms with everything you need for an overnight stay. Mark was extremely helpful and lovely throughout the whole duration of our stay. He helped us to park at the accommodation and allowed us early entry into our room, he offered advice on the local area and best things to go and see with lots of history too! The hotel was quiet with the other guests and was in the most perfect location for York City centre. Would highly recommend booking here for your stay in York. Thank you!
We chose this hotel because of the good reviews and location and on site parking, unfortunately the only room available was a twin, best nights sleep I've had since we were married, the beds were so comfortable, room was a decent size en suite with everything you needed, even a fridge and small freezer compartment. And a fan. Really nice cooked breakfast in the morning. 10 min walk to the Minster and city centre. Staff were really welcoming and helpful, we will definitely book here again next time we come to York.
Locality great. Excellent base for the city centre. Short walking distance to the Shambles. Situated on a street full of bars, cafes and restaurants.
Easy check in, simple instructions for gate and room codes.
Friendly staff.
On site parking. Warned about the narrow entrance for cars but we had no problem.
Room Comfortable and clean. Aware of negative reviews but we weren't expecting the Ritz as it was considerably cheaper than other York hotels.
We would definitely stay again.
Sensational. Couldn't fault it one bit. Staff were polite and welcoming, facilities are great. Room is superb value for money. We had a room with a view which overlooked 'Thor's' with York Minster cathedral on the horizon. Hotel was extremely clean, ample parking, sizeable and spacious rooms. Location is perfect for train station (right next to it) and a 5-minute walk to the city centre, 10-minute walk to the Railway Museum. Not much more you could ask for!
A nice, unassuming guest house with simple accommodations. The rooms are small but use the space well. The bathroom is tiny but again, this is a guest house and not a four-star hotel. The owner is very friendly and helpful, and for five pounds prepares a wonderful breakfast of a ham sandwich and coffee. The ham (bacon) is fresh from a local butcher. Located 10 minutes by foot from the Minster and central York.
Location was really great, very central and near to the main sights of York City centre. Breakfast was good. Liked the variety and option for a hot breakfast too. I would have preferred it starting slightly earlier but I appreciate most don't get up early at the weekend. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating so that is a real plus. Makes a massive difference to your perception of a short hotel stay.
Rooms were very clean, comfy beds, nice showers. Very historical, charming building but rooms had all the modern amenities you'd need as well. Breakfast was wonderful and set us up well for a full day of touring. All staff were very kind and helpful throughout our stay. We really enjoyed our stay in beautiful, historical York and especially felt a warm welcome from this little boutique hotel.
Nice accommodation option with a comfortable bed, not far away from the city center. Good value for money. There is no 24 h reception desk, but nonetheless I was able to communicate with the hosts easily and drop off and pick up my suitcase when needed. There was complimentary coffee and tea in the room, which was very nice (this seems to be common in England according to my experience).
My mother and l had a fabulous stay in York at The Dean Court Hotel.during the #JVF 2024 in February.
All the staff were friendly,Kind and very professional. Gary our waiter was lovely , humourous and very helpful every evening when we ordered our meals and drinks with him.
The room had a great view looking out over the York Minster.
Good location, plenty of buses opposite Hotel, to get into York centre, train station 15 minutes walk away and lovely clean room, pure white soft towels, couldn't fault anything and breakfast was delicious! Lots of choices!! Had a double room on ground floor and would definitely book again!
Funky Marriott owned hotel in a fabulous location in York. Superb value for money. Rooms a good size for a city hotel and very clean. Staff absolutely lovely. Large bar and food available. Small quiet beer garden. Parking very close at Shambles multistory for £10 a day.
Very quaint clean room in the heart of York, no more than ten minutes walk from excellent shopping, attractions and nightlight. Comfortable bed and good facilities, loved the biscuits and tea! Easy access to the hotel's excellent restaurant which serves delicious food.
Hotel was fantastic, great location for city centre, room had view across the ruver ,great secure parking, fantastic breakfast and staff were really friendly and helpful, i honestly cant fault this hotel, will stay here again if in York
Hotel is in excellent location 5 mins from Minster itself and centre of York. Room was large with king size bed. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent with many choices of cooked items which were cooked to order.
Beautiful boutique hotel with only a short walk to york minister. The staff went above and beyond in so many areas to make our stay perfect! Amazing room called the "Yorkie"
The hotel does what you would expect from a chain. The parking isn't too expensive for York city centre and is really handy for those that need to travel by car.
