We stayed here as the recommended accommodation for a friends wedding. It was pricey so we took some assurance to the level of quality having paid less for the local Travelodge a year or two previous. First off we booked a family room which was very spacious but was like the room from a decade taste and cleanliness forgot.... the... more

We wanted a nice night in York and looked for a hotel on the net and found this very reasonably priced at room only £55 per room per night. When we pulled up it looks very good from outside the front, quite dramatic. Old building but with lovely greenery surrounding. The side entrance where you enter looked dirty and in... more

I read some pretty mixed reviews about this place but I found it to be excellent. The hotel was beautiful inside and out. The room was large and the bathroom was large which seems to uncommon over there. We came in very late but found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. more

booked this hotel for me and the wife as we fancied a night out in york and was pretty impressed with the whole experience..if you shop around there are some good deals to be had and ours included breakfast which would normally be £8.50. the hotel itself was very easy to find and we were lucky to get a parking... more

Stayed at the Elmbank on the 10th May. Booked a later deal through Lastminute.com £76 for 2 for one night room only. The hotel looks quite impressive from the outside and the staircase is grand too however the hotel does need a good makeover/restoration. Room was clean but very small and basic with the smallest bathroom I have ever seen.... more

My husband and I stayed for bed and breakfast at the Elmbank Hotel in York last Sunday night (10th Feb). When we arrived for breakfast (around 9am) on the morning of the 11th, we were amazed not to be able to find a clean table as literally every table had plates and cutlery on them that previous customers had already... more

This has got to be just the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. We were told that there was parking on site. There is - but only for a very small number of cars. When we arrived and I enquired about parking I was told that I would just have to park it on the street and make sure... more

Stayed at the Elmbank, Booked by my partner as a birthday surprise. First impressions were good and the interior with the open fires is very nice but it went downhill from there. Location is within walking distance of the town center and the NRM so no need to use the car to get about Rooms adequate size with a small... more

I booked this hotel in desperation as it seemed there were no reasonably priced hotel rooms available that weekend anywhere near the centre of York. It seemed fine for a "girls' weekend" away with my sister. Just before I set off, I read the reviews on this site and I started realising why it was the only hotel with any... more

We stayed at the Elmbank for the Ebor Race Festival. We didn't know what to expect after reading some of the reviews and we were a bit worried about staying at the Elmbank but we couldn't get in at our usual hotel (very late booking this year). On arrival we were greeted by friendly staff and shown to our room... more
