2 Rowntree House

The place was central so was right on top of everything you needed, it was a beautiful accommodation and the beds were so comfy, it was exactly what we needed and i did not want to leave. Loved that it was a Rowntrees accommodation too!

I loved everything the only minor issue was the bath tap did not work but that wasn’t a massive problem and definitely didn’t affect our time there

3rd Stay in this apartment. As always, lovely and clean, easy keyless entry to the building and flat. Being right in the heart of York is the diamond in the crown for Rowntree House. Literally opposite The Shambles and within walking distance of all the main attractions. Plenty of lovely, independent places to eat/drink (highly recommend Pranza and Nola👌) We stayed Monday to Friday and on the whole it's very quiet. Will definitely be back 🙂

Some noise in the morning from the draymen rolling barrels down the alleyway below for The Golden Fleece pub next door. One morning there was a drunk/homeless lad passed out by the step into the main building (paramedics soon came and took him away) Both of these instances were beyond the control of the hosts but just be aware that you are right in the centre of York so these things can happen although not on a daily basis! The apartment itself is lovely, the only thing I would say is that the bathroom could benefit from having a duckboard and grab rail as it is an over bath shower. I was very wary of getting in and out of the bath as the floor gets quite slippery when using the shower. I'd recommend putting a towel down on the floor. Also, slipmat in the bath is tiny.

We loved this quirky apartment. It was in a great location and pretty close to secure parking.

The only downside were the stairs to get up to our room. My suitcase was a bit heavy lol (my husband said that was my fault hahaha)

The flat was in a great location, easy to find! The interiors were charming and clean, and despite it being near a busy road, it was quiet unless someone was talking directly outside of the flat, but that only happened during tours, so it was nice and quiet during the night. Highly recommend :)

The only thing that maybe should be looked at was the radiators in the bedroom as they were making a lot of noise in the morning, but it was not a deal breaker!

Cosy comfortable and quiet but right in the middle of York close to the attractions

Bath tap wasn't working, water would only come through shower head

Location was excellent. It is an authentic building of character. It was quiet and restful.

The initial step into the building was a bit of challenge especially to the older person, but should be OK for most people. I would have thought that a larger TV would be more appropriate. The one at present is perhaps a 32 inch and like most rental properties has to be setup after each rental. No real gripes though. Location tops all!

Clean, comfortable and in a perfect location.

The low thrumming noise and vibration in the bedroom from the Pizza Hut extractor during the day. This didn’t affect the living area and it stopped by the time we were back after evenings out.

The location and the flat were excellent and was a perfect base to see and do things in and around York

We could not get the hot water to work. Heating was great but no hot water apart from once on 2nd day. Tried all suggestions in book and would have liked a phone call to tell us what to do or what we were doing wrong. Shower screen is not effective and not a big issue but does mean water spills onto the woodwork. Also could not switch to using bath tap only so had to resort to using the shower head to have a bath

This was our second stay in this beautiful apartment! It's very comfortable and has everything you need for your stay! Lovely and light in the summer and cosy in the winter! The location is excellent!!

The bedroom is a bit on the dark side, for the ladies wanting to do their makeup (bring a light up mirror)
