York Part Deux

The hotel was nice enough to hold our two large suitcases, while we travelled to Edinburgh. I don't think we would have survived Edinburgh if we had to carry around that baggage. Weird thing with return was that the room was a ways from our previous room, but was bigger with a nice bathtub.

First York Visit

This hotel ended up being perfect. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was amazing, being very close to everything, the station, York minster, the Shambles and the art gallery. The restaurant was good as well, even though we only ate there the first night. We fully recommend this hotel.

My stay at The Milner York Hotel was soothing, relaxing and helped me to detox. The staff were efficient and friendly, my room was of best standards and the hotel overall was of very high quality. And I also found it was super affordable for a one night stay! Thank you so much for making my experience memorable. I will be back for more!

Great room that felt luxurious. Good size pool. Quiet hotel that had everything we needed. Only downside was the chain lock on the door was practically hanging off, but it didn't affect the main lock of the door.

Really Loved the Garden room, staff were very friendly and super helpful, our room was a lovely size (few scuffs on the walls here and there) it was very clean and it had everything you could ask for. The Restaurants temperature was a bit cool and so too the bar but nice all the same. I thought the parking charge was a bit pricey to be honest, but at least there was parking. All in all we really had a lovely time and would go again.

Perfect location for arriving by train and exploring york. Staff were all incredibly helpful, polite snd professional. The option of being able to leave your bags with the hotel before and after check was great. Room was ok, bed was adequate for our night stay. the hotel does recognise that not all rooms are perfect as it is a older building.
