Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was cozy and pleasant, with a few drawbacks. The rooms were very comfortable with a great en-suite, but quite small compared to other double rooms I've stayed in. The service was friendly and efficient, with some standout staff members like Carmel, Emanuel, and the night security guard. The location was ideal, with easy access to the city and regular bus service. However, the dining experience was chaotic and the breakfast quality lower than expected. Overall, a good stay with some room for improvement.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms are each uniquely styled, making you feel at home rather than in a typical hotel room. The bedding provided was just perfect for the hot weather, and the accessibility to the city center was a definite bonus. However, the premium pricing was a slight drawback.
For our anniversary getaway, the hotel rooms were clean and adequate, but the bathroom needs updating due to mold between the tiles. The music from the Party Night disco above was loud, affecting the stay.
My stay at the hotel left me feeling tired and in need of some redecoration. The room was not up to par with a toilet that smelled, an uneven floor, and a noisy flushing toilet. The lack of water for tea was inconvenient, and the soap dish fell off the wall. The room was stifling even with the window open and a small fan in use. The noisy neighbors made it hard to get a good night's rest.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and comfortable, providing everything needed for a few days' stay. The staff members were helpful and went above and beyond at times, making my experience even better. The location was excellent for exploring York and the surrounding areas, with convenient access to various attractions. However, the check-in process was a bit delayed, and some minor details needed attention in the room.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nice, clean, and comfortable, but there was a mix-up with our booking. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff going out of their way to assist us. The location was convenient for exploring the city but lacked some amenities. The dining had its ups and downs, with a delicious breakfast but problems with availability. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I absolutely loved the character of this hotel with its few squeaky floorboards, above the kitchen, and the upmarket room setup. However, the compact lounge area and slightly stained carpet were minor drawbacks.
