Hotel was a great location, clean and warm and all the staff bar our initial welcome by a receptionist was first class ( we did not see that receptionist again - cold, abrupt and not bothered) but everyone else was amazing. The peacock bar was lovely and a nice twist on major cocktails with a Yorkshire twist and the breakfast was so nice, great staff and freshly cooked food nothing too much trouble. Would highly recommend.

Lovely hotel, great reception and room service staff. Friendly and very helpful. We had a king size courtyard room which was clean and had a fridge and kettle. Bed was comfortable and shower worked well. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment on that. Parking available at hotel but limited or car park at the Mount School which always had spaces. The walk into York took about 25 minutes. Only small criticism was the bar ran out of drinks including sauvignon white wine. Other than that would definitely come and stay again.

Elmbank was a lovely hotel but there were a couple of things which made us feel we did not get good value for money. The information we received prior to arrival was out of date. As an example it advised us to ring on the day of arrival to book parking which we were advised was not possible. Parking is purely first come first served. The toilet was not clean around the seat fixings. There was a plaster from previous guests in the bin! There was no hot water for one of us the have a decent shower one morning!
