Liked: Staff & service
The first room I slept in for one night was on ground floor bed 3 feet away from pavement it was surreal felt like there was people in the room and 3 lanes of traffic couldn’t sleep it was very dated and carpet was filthy. I spoke to Hazel who was brilliant she upgraded my room and the second night was far more pleasant. I don’t think Room 70 should be used or if it is customers should be warned of limitations.

Worst hotel room ever

Probably the worst hotel room I’ve ever stayed in - very little lighting, lights tripped off, power sockets don’t work, creaking floor boards, on busy main road lots of traffic noise, sofa bed had springs poking out very uncomfortable

Anna on reception was first rate….. allowed an early check in and went out of her way to ensure we had a good stay. Location is perfect for exploring York, near the Minster and walking distance to all attractions and bars.

Comfy stay

We have visited this hotel on many occasions, from when it was the Best Western Monk Bar. Much has changed since then. However it is still a friendly welcoming (if somewhat corporate affair). My only criticisms on this visit were:Lack of fried eggs in the morning - eventually one turned up on a plate a lovely lady had taken to keep warm. Mu second egg came later and had obviously beendone in a rush as it was a little "snotty". On my last visit the bar was poor - with a can of Guinness not beiong used as it had frozen at the back of the fridge, surely a sign of poor stock rotation. Bar staff were all over the pace, but no real empathy with the customer. Didn't use the bar on this occasion, instead getting mildly enlivened at the Old Starre in town. Didn't dine in either - preferring an excellent steak at "Caesar's" a 5 minute walk away. Overall the hotel was comfortable - had a nice upfrade to a De Luxe room with a lovely big bed and large TV. Good bathroom with a hiot tap which turned on the wrong way(!). Thanks for the welcome "cookie" - in Egland these are generally called "biscuits"... We came by bus, which was a boobn as car parking in York centre is horrendous and expensive. Overnight at the hotel it's "5.00 for the night on a first come basis, and even with the Councikl car park it's £14.50.

Disappointing room. Small, thin bed covers, curtains didn’t close properly so room could be seen by anyone in the car park. No tv remote, broken batch plug…. I know it’s York, but not great value for money.

Good stay central to York

Comfortable family room/suite (57) but it was very cold, lots of heaters in the room but quite noisy and took a while to kick in. All staff very friendly and helpful.
