Stayed here about a year ago and on my annual visit to York came back to see what had been done. They have opened a fabulous restaurant - chef apparently had worked at some very good local 2 and 3 rosette Yorkshire restaurants and it showed. Been open about 2 weeks and service was still bedding in but the food... more

Great place. Really enjoyed. Comfortable and relaxing. It had everything we needed. Good value and good food. Would definitely stay again. more

We were told by the owner that they had been there for one year.It soon became obvious they had no previous knowledge of running a hotel.The theme was black and white,so why a yellow bathroom suite,wall tiles painted white,cheap brown lino,sealed badly with white silicon.The bedroom gave me the impression it had been furnished with the owners DREAM in mind... more

Once inside you are met by a wash of black and white which is way too oppresive. After a long wait for someone to come to reception we were pointed in the direction... more

Enjoyed out stay here - we arrived midday and were able to store our bags until later - the receptionist was really helpful in getting back into York as quickly as possible (the no.2 P&R bus is about 100yds away and takes you straight into the city). Our bags had been put in our room for us on our return.... more

Firstly, dont beleive the good review you see about this hotel. They may well be faked ones. I wouldnt be surprised if the hotel did alot of them themselves.
