Well having spent a considerable time online looking for a nice place to stay in York we finally chose the Lighthorseman due to the good reviews on this site and, I'm so glad we did. Our room was clean, tidy and well decorated. There was some road noise from outside but this didn't affect our sleep as, like most traffic... more

Stayed at the Lighthorseman on Fri & Sat night with a friend, sharing a twin room, which was very clean, pleasantly decorated with a small flat screen tv. Bathroom was clean and quite spacious. The landlady seemed very friendly. Nice enough pub, didnt think it was too noisy inside but the noise from the traffic outside was awful, fortunately had... more

Thank you for your review, again unfortunately we cannot obtain double glazing due to the building being grade II listed as explained on our web site. One or two of our residents had asked for the heating to be turned on, this we did to take the chill from the rooms, we put this on for 1 hour in the...

If you are looking for somewhere good to stay in York, then the Lighhorseman is the place to stay. This is the second time we have stayed and will look at staying again next year. The food was good last time, but with new chef on board the food was great this time. The rooms wonderful and clean and everything... more

First visit to York, and decided to book 3 nights at the Lighthorseman for a weekend away with my wife and 18 year old son - 1xDouble room and 1xSingle. The pub itself is a very nice Victorian building - the bar area itself made us think of the Queen Vic in Eastenders! Great free car parking, which is quite... more

Having read the pubs webpage we anticipated a better than average stay at an attractive Victorian pub (which it is!). However, we were disappointed to be greeted in a rather offhand manner by the landlord, and asked for our payment (£120-00) in advance (unusual, and a first in our experience)...and also for a £10 deposit on the TV remote in... more

As the owners of the Lighthorseman we are concerned that our guests have an enjoyable stay, but unfortunately with some areas we are restricted. We are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay with us but we are a grade II listed building and unforunately we are governed by the heritage society and we cannot obtain double glazing. Since...

We stayed at the Lighthorseman a few years ago, and were glad that rooms were available for our recent trip. The staff were as friendly as ever, the room was spotless and comfortable, and the breakfast set us up for the day. A new innovation was a safe in the room - a great idea. Evening meals are now also... more

Stayed here for 4 nights. Made to feel welcome from the start. Room clean and very comfortable. Food very very good value. Breakfast sets you up for the day. All staff couldn't be more helpful. Lovely 10 minute walk along river takes you into York. Really felt that we were welcome there. Paul found a kindred spirit in Alan, nice... more

Having tried to book rooms in all the usual larger hotel chains we ended up staying at the lighthorseman during a recent visit to relatives. After reading some of the other reviews I was a little unsure what to expect and as we were travelling with smallish children I was a little concerned about the fact we would be staying... more
