We had a lovely stay! Susanna made sure that we were well taken care of. All the staff has such pride in the grounds and history. The location is close to everything. Very nice breakfasts and even a bag with water and a snack for our travels when we checked out!

An amazing place. My favorite is the garden where you can have a lovely lunch with bubbles, which is what we did. The room was incredible and the staff is just wonderful. Every time I go to York, that’s where I will stay.

The breakfast was excellent.

Maybe a spa or a gym, hard due to space restrictions.

Lovely breakfast but would like beans with it

Bath didn't hold water as there was no rubber on plug. Mentioned it but had no mention of compensation for our inconvenience is this supposedly 5 star hotel. Obviously having a working bath is not a necessity.

"Practically Perfect in Every Way 😊"

10.0

Everything. Kind attentive staff, a beautiful room that I only booked on the day, incredibly historic building and gardens, practically in the grounds of York Minster, private parking making it easy to explore York on foot, good Yorkshire breakfast, lovely bar area in the Long Room, peaceful and just what I needed as a short stopover on my drive up to Scotland.

Nothing. Just a couple of tips for other travellers : (1) there isn't a lift because this is a listed building and not allowed to convert it so if you are visiting with reduced mobility be aware you will have to walk up a couple of flights of stairs. Staff will help you with your luggage but not recommended if you are in a wheelchair or use mobility aids. (2) Their restaurant is closed on Tuesdays, not a problem because there are lots of interesting independent restaurants in York. I can recommend the York Minster Refectory only a few minutes walk away, excellent food.

"Fairfax Room"

10.0

This hotel had so much charm, with its unique and quaint rooms. The outdoor garden is absolutely beautiful and you can even get up onto the old wall from the back of the property. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. It was a little stuffy in our room when we got there, but that was nothing an open window and fan couldn't fix. I would 100% stay here if I were ever to visit York again.
