A wonderful Hotel just slightly away from the centre of York, but very, very walkable from the station and anywhere you might like to visit. The staff were engaging, wonderfully helpful, the room was perfect and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again in the future. Other touches like the "Pantry" and convenient onsite parking made it a real joy to stay.

Brilliant location just far enough away that it is nice and quiet but within a close commute to hit all major areas of interest. Beautiful restaurant and bar within the hotel, very comfortable and stylish decor. The only downside I would say is it was let down but having dogs in the lounge area when going for a drink before dinner. I know many people like this, and like the opportunity to bring their pet everywhere but personally felt it brought the atmosphere to a more country pub with dogs lying around. Staff were exceptional, very helpful and informative. Parking came at a cost which is to be expected however it would be a good gesture to have this readily available for guests then pay for additional time after check out if needed. The pantry was a wonderful feature, very unique and a welcome treat after a full day and night out in York. Rooms are small but very well utilised, warm and well decorated with lovely little touches and attention to detail. Would absolutely stay again.

Lovely two night stay. Charming rooms which were dog friendly, additional charge applied. Large freestanding bath and separate rainfall shower. Tuck shop with fab goodies free of charge. Booked and paid for on site parking which was convenient. Short walk into the centre of York. Would recommend!

Quirky and welcoming

A quirky hotel that really appealed to our sense of staying somewhere a little different and interesting. Staff were very welcoming and attentive. Our room was lovely with a wonderfully comfortable bed.
