Beautiful Hotel

Such an amazing hotel. The staff were so friendly, and the hotel was amazing. I would be looking to return to this hotel on my next trip to York. Perfect location as it’s only a few minutes walk to the city centre.

Historic elegance

Selected for convenience but appreciated historic elegance. I was traveling by train and bus, and it was perfect for both. Friendly, helpful staff. Smallish room, but I associate that with time period. Had similar experience at Chicago's Palmer House from same time period. Enjoyed my stay.

Great location beside the train station

Old hotel that was at the top of society in the late 1800’s. It is impossible to maintain such an expensive property without going bankrupt. Accept the fact that the building shows signs of wear. Comfortable stay in a piece of history.

Enjoyed our stay. The room was clean although we had a disabled suite, which meant the shower was too low and as a result flooded the bathroom. Overall it was very good though and we would happily stay again.
