The room was spacious and clean with a lovely view over the river Booked a parking spot for additional £18 which was for 24 hours from midday to midday which meant that we could look around York both before and after our check in/out Very central to York town centre so convenient for the shops and attractions

Pretty room, very cozy. Comfy bed, plenty of warm water (not actually hot, but warm enough). Very close to the river, shops, restaurants, and sights to see, and walkable from the train station. Very accommodating about our breakfasts (they arranged a takeaway for us when only late slots were available the first morning, and a before-usual-times the next day when we had a very early train to catch). Super helpful half-a-level elevator in the lobby to get luggage/wheelchairs/whatever from street level to the reception desk. No complaints at all, this is a fine establishment. And although we’ve agreed future trips to the UK will focus more on villages and small towns, and less on cities, York is an exception. It’s a special blend of the old and the newer, and really quite charming and beautiful. The Shambles was fun, Westminster was stunning (and the climb to the tower just as challenging as they warned, but well worth it), the wall around the inner city - we loved it all.

York budget stopover
Faults first: the wifi is basically worthless because they're not allowed to drill under the river to place a higher speed cable. Nearby it wasn't any better though. The bed was okay but more pillows are needed, and I have no idea why faucets separate a hot handle and cold so you can't wash your face easily. Also, the TV didn't work at all so we couldn't watch the Euro Cup opener. But that brings us to the best part, the staff. They allowed us to watch the game in the next room over after they couldn't fix our tv. They accommodated our daughters with mattresses on the floor, but the girls were comfortable. Our bed was adequate, and the water pressure was good. It was clean. Otherwise it's not a high quality hotel. But it fit in our budget for a one-night stay, and was close to the Minster and The Shambles, as well as the river and the rail station. Thank you to the staff for trying to help with the aforementioned items.
