Lovely room
A beautiful room with a great bath and shower - always important! Comfy bed, lovely coffee machine, snacks… fan supplied as weather was hot. The view was of a building site which was a shame but didn’t really bother me, I was only there a night.

Very comfortable, clean, well placed for City Centre. Ideal for short stay in York. Only downsides: broadband very weak; limited - and surprisingly expensive for what it was breakfast.

Perfect work stay in York
Best place ive stayed in a really long time. Friendly welcome and the lady was so helpful and printed some importent documents for me. Decor of the room was so nice, like staying in someones home rather than a soul less hotel. Location was absolutely perfect and i had such a nice walk to work along the river and in to town.

A Little Gem
We couldn’t recommend this hotel enough. Me and my fiancè stayed for 2 nights in a luxury double and the room was very good with good facilities. It’s the little nice touches such as fresh milk and a hot water bottle in the room. The bed was really comfortable and the hotel is in a good location within walking distance of the main shopping area. The staff were very helpful and friendly throughout our stay. We will definitely be returning.

Beautiful place to stay.
I had a lovely stay at Jorvik House. The rooms are contemporary, very clean, and stylish. The hotel is on a quiet road directly across from the Museum Gardens, which makes access into York town centre very easy. The bathroom was small but perfect for me (solo traveller) with an amazing waterfall shower. My only criticism is that I found the bed ever so slightly lumpy in places but it didn't stop me from getting a decent night's sleep. Good quality bedding and pillows though. The minibar was a nice addition too. I had a great stay here, the staff are so, so kind and friendly. I only wish I'd booked to stay a bit longer!

Paint chipping off the wall, a used contact lens in the bathroom, stained blankets, paper thin walls, the door to the bathroom needs replacing. £175 was way too much, also if you advertise a king size bed you should provide it. It was only a double

Great location. Beautiful unique hotel.
We arrived much earlier than the check in time due to our trains, and the room was available so we were able to check in before midday, but even if we couldn’t, they were happy to look after the luggage. The room was spacious, comfortable, with fantastic views over the museum gardens gates with a short pleasant stroll the the minister (gardens gate shut at 6pm so it’s an extra 1-2minutes to go around). The bed was a decent size, comfortable, warm duvet, 2 pillows each side. It was a fantastic stay and would highly recommend staying here, and we will be back.
