Situated just a 5-minute walk from the impressive York Minster, City Walls and a multitude of City Centre shops and attractions, this privately owned, family-run Victorian townhouse is well established as one of York's best places to stay. We have recently undergone a major refurbishment and now offer eight beautifully decorated, spacious double, twin and triple bedrooms All bedrooms are en-suite and have central heating, colour television, tea & coffee making facilities, minibar and hairdryer. Note that prior to rebranding and refurbishment in Nov 2020 this property was called “ The Palm Court” so some of the older reviews and pictures feature may be of the old branding and room pictures. Since the refurbishment, we have been awarded Five Stars by Visit England and a Breakfast Award.
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Had a Fantastic stay at MonkBridge House. Stayed in four poster room which was lovely, spacious & very comfy. Breakfast was delicious & the hosts just delightful. Only a 10 minute walk in to the centre.

Second stay at this lovely bnb in York. Free parking for car is such a bonus. Easy walk into town (10mins) plenty of nice pubs and restaurants. Bedrooms are clean and luxurious. Underfloor heating in the bathrooms. Nice lounge to relax in. Breakfasts first class. Homemade butter and jams and breads! Traditional terraced house. There are some stairs so maybe not for people with mobility issues.

Just had a lovely stay here. Large rooms with everything you need and more, spotlessly clean and warm. Great location for walking into York centre. Delicious breakfast with numerous home made extra touches. Already planning our next visit. Thank you, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We’re were greeted by Fiona who helped carry our belongings in explained everything to us. The place is warm welcoming and exceptionally clean and must as far as I’m concerned. It is tastefully decorated and extremely peaceful guests are respectfully asked for no noise between 10pm and 8am what a bonus! Paul prepares an amazing cooked breakfast, but there is also cereal fruit etc or both if you wish. Nothing is too much trouble for them to make guests happy. They hold lots of local information which they are happy to share. Paul even went the extra mile yesterday of completely defrosting the car so we could safely leave clearing all the snow and ice and apparently been out at 10 pm the previous evening to spray de- icer on all the car windows. I’d thoroughly recommend this little gem to anyone especially for close proximity to the city walls. Excellent hosts thank you for such a good stay although too short. I had the best nights sleep I’ve had in years whilst there. Book before you go if wanting restaurants they are very busy…

What an amazing place to find and well deserving of 5 stars! Spotless, clean and comfortable bedrooms and within easy walking distance of the town. Parking on site also available. Simply loved my breakfast of smoked salmon and cream cheese with a delicious side relish. Can’t rate highly enough. 😀

As York is such a historic city we wanted to find an accommodation which complimented the experience. We most certainly did in Monkbridge House! From the moment we arrived nothing was too much trouble: from the explanation of the breakfast system to the bedroom facilities. On our first morning we had a delicious (hearty) breakfast with so many elements homemade and locally sourced. We will definitely be back.

superb !!! Well located to get into centre by foot, off road parking so close to the centre was a big plus. Paul & Fiona the owners were very friendly, the place was spotless. Our room 3 on the 1st floor was huge, very comfy bed, big shower, under floor heating in the shower room, well stocked mini bar, proper milk in a bottle in the mini bar. The breakfast was 5 star and as much as you can eat with good quality sausages, bacon and eggs. Homemade bread, butter, jams and marmalade. I say this every time we go to a different city if you do your research you will never be disappointed !! Well done Paul and Fiona for excellent service.

Excellent in every respect. Run very professionally, spotlessly clean, rooms very well appointed, we particularly like the super bathroom and fridge with fresh milk and goodies if you require them. Breakfast is second to none, with a wonderful choice and lots of homemade treats. Fiona and Paul are an amazing team and go out of their way to help and advise to make a visit to York a truly memorable experience. A free car park and a short walk into town are the ‘icing on the cake’!
